I think you can learn the right mechanics from either the hands or the lower body stand point. Josh Donaldson says the same thing, he doesn't think about his hands . But you got guys like Trout , Miggy ,Albert saying they do use their hands. I just stated how I teach it . Don't know what your saying. Context would be nice . We already have one poster that just posts things and doesn't add context . Wanna add something? Or are you saying that is how you teach it? If so please explain.
