That makes sense. I'm good with, ''You're struggling, let's see if shortening or eliminating the stride will help you put barrel on ball.''
What I don't get is, ''No stride is the way we do it here, period.''
I rarely see programs that achieve success through "cloning" hitters. Every hitter is different in some way and you have to find what works for them. There is no single right way to do it.
