Re: Re: Re: Re: THT Frustrations

It seems like no matter what I do with my hands or where I position my elbow, my bat still seems to pause just about when my heel lands. It makes me mad that the major leaguers can do it without even knowing about it, and despite the work I've put into it, still can't get it. Are there any future plans for a THT training aid Jack?

Sal I guess I shouldn't be tto quick to be critical of a product I'm not familiar with.Let's just say I'm always a little skeptical of any new product.Usually they are just gimmicks. I think the best investment is time an energy. there are several drills out there that will help develop a short-to-the-ball swing.Webball has some great info. as a matter of fact, Webball is where I discovered the link to this site.
