Hi Rahkling7

You still persist in associating me to a post I never wrote. Everyone who has studied my work knows I would never state that I was "a better hitter" when I held the bat tight. A bat gripped tight (especially the top-hand) causes many problems for hitters who use top-hand-torque and similar mechanics.--- If you had studied and understood the material in the video, as you said you did, you would know my position on the “grip.”
