Mann, Howe is not a follower of anyone let along Teacherman. Forgive the understatement!

I know, and Chap and the rest you all, have helped me tremendously.

I swing a bat, and have and do try everything myself, I can feel, and see, what Howe talks about, and the rest of you BBD guys.

Even for the web, teach, is an odd man

Is it possible to get clip of him showing the little kid how to dump the Barrel?

Odd is an understatement. He once told me my son needed to do this - Yep, he wanted me to teach my son to DUMP and CAST the barrel...

It's not even close to what actually happens. More facts! But he's more than willing to lie and say he is doing what Hammy is doing.

So Howe....

He is your student. He's learned. You haven't said anything about his corner. Please, let's be truthful...room for improvement, good, exemplary, high level? Let's hear it from you.

TBao,
As I'm sure you know ;) I've been at this a while. I've seen all of the different divergences, avoidance's and "switch-a-roos". Your theories don't hold up, so now you're looking to drag a member here through the mud. Let me ask you this. Is mann swinging a bat? Has mann posted video of himself and students? Is mann sharing openly/freely? Yes, Yes and Yes.

Has mann claimed to be a guru? Does mann ask for money for instruction? Does mann have minions doing his bidding? No, No and No.

Now to your question(s): Who here OR anywhere doesn't have room for improvement? It's good in the sense that many here are very new to any of these concepts. This drill is similar to Epsteins torque drill. Although many advanced folks don't/won't find value in it, there is an audience for it here and elsewhere. Exemplary? High Level? I guess that's in the eye of the beholder, huh? Some may really like this drill. I don't think that's for you to decide, right? Isn't that what you're trying to prove to me??? LOL

You see, this is actually a very basic concept in and of itself:

Oh, I realize you've created words like "scip axis" and incorporated others such as vortex to make is sound "mysterious". Here's the funny part though. I've pointed out that your genius "dips then swings"... So basically he teaches his hitters to get to the position on the right BEFORE GO! LOL

High level hitter's hands RESIST before GO. They resist loading the barrel and they resist direction. Which in a NUTSHELL is what the picture on the left is displaying. More Facts!

What?? I am Howe's student? My "TEACHERS", are all that have shoved knowledge down my throat.

Then, I form my own opinions, based on what I FEEL, how my hitting improves, AND in the Improvement in my students.

Based on that how is it that so many come to the same conclusions, and you get hurt feeling because they are not YOUR conclusions.

That clip of me above, That is me FEELING the REAR HIP.
you can see me bounce, as I learn to feel this coil.
I am learning to "SIT".

And in this part of my drill, I teach others to feel the same thing.
So this is an example of my learning from others, and learning FEEL, what they are talking about, and forming a PLAN, on how to TEACH it.

edit
As a side note, I understand how to load in the unload, I understand in the sequence how to let chain form, but my hands are passive in this drill, its about the hip.
