Re: Question for Jack

>>> Hi Jack,

While I disagree with Gym Teacher's double extension model of the swing, I part with you in another respect--the swing plane. Jack, why is the swing plane so important, when A-Rod, to name one major player, exhibits a wavy swing plane?

I understand that Griffey Jr. fits your model of consistent planes; however, Barry Bonds does not. In fact, Barry "scoops sand" before attempting to hit the pitch.

Please clarify your position on swing planes, and, if possible, direct me to visuals that agree with your postural assessment of the swing.

One more thing--do you consider an inconsistent swing plane the mark of a linear hitter?

Take care, <<<

Hi BHL

Your topic, the swing plane, is key to good hitting. Its’ importance disserve its own thread and full discussion. Please repost it as a new topic.

PS: I will respond to your last e-mail this weekend.
