    Perfect Circle's friend!

    I did, but couldn't post the photos and didn't get a message yet. Not sure why either case!

    Perfect Circle's friend!

    Can someone please get a hold of Perfect Circle for me. I can't seem to find him or any email source. I have a mutual admirer of his that sent him some photos!

    Looks like Bustos has new video's

    You made the gifs? Show her swing just at the point of contact. See what her extension and bat lag looks like with later gifs. Perhaps she got fooled? Again, you guys take one swing and write a book about it! What was the purpose of stepping in the bucket? To get her hands inside the ball! She...

    In the first video clip, it is a recognition drill. Bustos is tossing balls with top spin and back spin to simulate drop and rise balls. Pretty good drill me thinks!

    Sure wanted to meet you. I waved to your daughter when I drove by a certain Division I University after leaving town. Wishing her the best! I'll be back. I always wondered why I taught what I taught sometimes. I got a lesson in physics that day!

    Pretty neutral I would say! Well my impression here is there is no equivalency between your posts! Perhaps enthusiasm for something other than your flavor of pablum seems threatening to you. Are you sure you aren't Teacherman? You sure have the same writing style! In truth I have seen one of...

    Stretch & Fire Success!

    This is my last post here. I don't care whether you like it or not. I don't care if you don't like my answers. I don't appreciate your obnoxious remarks, or insinuation that I might have, and now really did say to her, in the middle of her swing which lasted less than .4 seconds. The ball gets...

    Stretch & Fire Success!

    You asked if they were compact! I addressed that. In that I also addressed the differences in their hand path, but both were direct. However, I can not compare a partial swing from a 90 degree different angle and assess anything else. I don't know his swing except this gif. If he has had success...

    Critique / Help Series of Swings

    I have been too involved in this. I have obligations that I am ignoring, and one training document is a month late. That is in truth selfish on my part to indulge in this. I am going to come back again just to take a peek! I want to see your best videos and gifs on pitches on the inner half, up...

    Critique / Help Series of Swings

    And the farther the bat barrel is from the shoulder, the more difficult the job will be to get that bat head back in and out in front to hit a pitch up and in. And the lower the start, as in Lucy's swing on that riseball, the more difficult it is not to look foolish like Bustos did against...

    Critique / Help Series of Swings

    I agree with much of what you are saying here. Your opinion of Torres swing and mine are different. You are coming from a different technical perspective. Show me one of your girls, MTS, Marcus, etc. that is more compact? Yes, it is ridiculous to propose that no one swings and misses. May I...

    Critique / Help Series of Swings

    I consider this post ridiculous! Every player should be taught to lay off pitches that are out of the zone. Lucy usually does. And have any major leaguers ever missed or swung at a pitch up? They are paid millions to lay off pitches out of the zone. Players are paid millions to field every ball...

    Critique / Help Series of Swings

    Granted. But even Bustos missed worse than that. The pitcher was a pitching student of mine. She throws a screwball, rise-ball, change, curve, and has no drop. (I am not happy about that! Though now she is convinced to give up her screwball which she gets hammered on and learn a drop). But...

    Critique / Help Series of Swings

    Yep, very poorly worded. If the heel plant isn't made in time, during delivery, he will never catch up. When heel plant is made, the hips rotate, so motion starts. I have to admit I was about ready to accuse you of copying the text wrong.
  15. Steve Huff

    Critique / Help Series of Swings

    No, it doesn't take full rotation to get to hip connection. I believe I did answer it. I think it is compact. But I also added caveats. I liked Pujols' better. I didn't answer it because I didn't see it. But I answered it before answering this post. I agree on the basics with a lot of rotational...
