Choking up on the bat

Posted by: Scott (express@execpc.com) on Wed Jun 8 11:00:21 2011

Does choking up on the bat with two strikes help?

Would choking up change your swing? Different weight and balance?

If choking up were so effective... Why not do this all the time.

My thought is from a mechanical standpoint not choking up will have you swing in the same spot for consistancy. From a mindset I think it changes your approach to hitting.

Any thoughts on this?
