Re: cue

> Has anyone thought about using a cue of hips in front of shoulders,I have been seeing some kids with the problem of lunging ,not letting the ball come to them,and the cues were using are not working,so I was trying to do what they did then trying to figure out how to stop it if it was ingrained in my swing and I felt that if I focused on keeping my hips thrusted forward toward the ball ahead of the shoulders then rotating them into the ball,the rear tilt and swing plane fell into place,these ideas are not thoughts to necessarily take to the plate but to use to help break a problem.Has anyone used this or thought of it before and did you find any success.


RQL,

IMO if you do what you just wrote, minus the rotate the shoulders statement, you may fell what some call shoulder "bypass".

If you allow the lead hip to clear/running start, fire the back hip while turning the barrel rearward via hands/forearms, rear elbow will come down, lead elbow up and shoulders will laterally tilt and stay closed creatig stretch. Bypass.

The shooulders will rotate but not to power the swing. The swing has already been launched.
