Re: Re: Re Re: Mark McGwire ( Mechanics)PLEASE ANSWER!!!!!!!!!

MY QUESTION IS WHAT MECHANICS DOES BIG MAC USING BECAUSE , IM CONFUSE BECAUSE PEOPLE SAY HE USES THE CHARLEY METHODS OF HITTING? OR HE USES ROTATION MECHANICS???? PLEASE ANSWER

And there is no way that a hitter of the caliber of Mark McGwire can generate the tremendous amount of batspeed that he does using linear (Charley Lau's style) mechanics. It can only be done with rotational mechanics.

What I found was that all of these great hitters use the rotational mechanics which Jack advocates. And, all of them produce among the best numbers in power and produce the greatest batspeeds.

For example, Ken Griffey, Jr. as well as Alex Rodriguez and even Mark McGwire have been quoted as saying that they use weight shift and extension mechanics. And from Mr. Mankin's and my own observations I can safely tell you that they do not.

THEN HOW COME MARK MCGWIRE HAS MORE SUCCESS WITH ROTATIONAL MECHANICS THEN OTHERS???
