hard to check your swing

Posted by: skip (piks5@sbcglobal.net) on Sun Mar 25 16:50:10 2007

I'm a new convert to CHP etc. from a more or less linear way of initiating the swing. I see only one downside so far: with a linear hand path, if your started the knob to the ball and then decided to check your swing, you could do so fairly easily since the bat hadn't yet started in an arc. The explosive early initial bad speed of THT -- which I am sold on -- does make a successfully checked swing unlikely, doesn't it. Obviously not a reason to stay linear, but just an observation
