Re: JACK MANKIN must see

>>> Jack please (purchase) look at these two videos.

1. Batting with Ted Williams (plus the "Science of Hitting")

2. An hour of A Legend (Ted Williams)

These videos should assist you in understanding Ted Williams' philosophies on hitting. He knows more than we give him credit for. He just puts everything in layman's terms. Note particularly that Ted does not have his bat pointing back at the pitcher much at launch. Neither did Kaline or Billy Williams in his video "Batting with Ted Williams. <<<

Hi Hitting Guru

I have had Ted’s book "Science of Hitting" for a number of years and have discussed his batting philosophies with his son.

Although, cocking the bat-head toward the pitcher is a sound style for many batters, I have never taught nor advocated it. I prefer teaching George Brett’s style of transfer mechanics – with a softer stride.
