>>> Hey I have the same problem.
When you swing you might be straighting out your front leg.
Which causes you to lift your front hip and drop your back shoulder.
Step to the ball with your front leg bent.
Then as you go to swing lock the front leg out
Easier said then done
Thats how i get out of that <<<

Hi Danny

Welcome to the site. – You are referring to a 2002 discussion http://www.batspeed.com/messageboard/6759.html. You would be better served not following the advice Joe A gave. Mechanics that would have you extending the arms toward contact will stall your performance. – I have often heard the term, “lock out the front leg” but never quite understood its meaning. Would you explain the difference between “extending a bent leg” and "locking out the leg?"
