Some things i agree on and others not so much. In my opinion, not everyones swing will be the same. So dont tell me that if i dont seing a certain way i wont hit good. Its bullshit. I do more of a level golf swing motion, i crush pretty much everything. Reason why, i play the ball out in front of me, i just angle the bat to the ball, and boom. My point, some people have their own way of doing things.

he has no idea what he is talking about..you do not drop your hands depending on location...all you will do is pop up or miss

[InItToWinIt96]

you do NOT want to come out..your hitting off your front side losing all your power..hes coming up and out of his legs..all power will be gone. also you do not want an upper cut ...you want to stay level through the zone.. you generate power from keeping your hands inside and exploding through and getting power from you hips

[hailtothepack]

hey dumb dumb flipping your hands doesnt create power

its your hips hands cant give anything.BTW you dont use your left hand in any part of a swing

[terriersmichael]

you guys should study baseball before you critique.. This guy obviously has done some research

[backdoorjoker]

This coach says, "I think" a lot!  That's exactly your problem... "You think", but you really don't!

[backdoorjoker]

This coach is horrible... Keep him away from young baseball players! He should be fired!

[unnamedshuffler]

completly wrong you dont even go up on your back toes it puts to much pressure on your front foot and can cause you to loose balance and/or slide forward some and he is batting a bunt not a hit he isnt flicking any part of his wrist at all so he isnt pushing the enjoy that his body is building out through the bat
