Yes she is, just not in the same "dynamically balanced" that some are able to see or understand since she doesn't have the same/only "style" they're able see or identify with.

Bunch of buzzkillers around here.. I made a funny but nobody laughed :(

Anyway if you want to be all serious, calling something dynamically balanced has a specific meaning in engineering, specifically the field of rotary dynamics, so there are not different flavors of "dynamically balanced"...take that buzzkill!!

Getting back to the OP topic and the girl on the tee, she is doing the wall drill with a low and outside tee setup..just saying.

Just something else to consider. That kid is a slapper.....

Swing looks a little different then most of Juan's students. He does a great job.

My guess is you see her with the upper body/torso back over the back hip, leaning back and this is what your calling out of balance. It's not my favorite position that this girl attains, but it is a "style" that is proven to work. I would say she lacks the attack posture at toe touch. The attack posture is my favorite position at toe touch, although it isn't a absolute.

Show me a HOF that does this. It is most definitely an absolute.

Have you ever been in a situation where you've had to cut any players ever? Assuming you did, were all of those you cut...only cut because they didn't have you as a coach from a young age, or was it that they just didn't have the coordination or weren't athletically talented enough to play the game at that next level...whatever that might be?

So are you telling us that you guarantee all of the players (and their parents) that come to you for coaching...that they will receive scholarships and/or play pro ball if they stay with you, and I'm curious if you've been 100% successful with the unique marketing ploy. If not, why not...if you're teaching them exactly what HOF, and MLB hitters are doing, shouldn't they hit like the pros you're teaching them to swing like?

Amazing I'm even having to have this conversation, or being asked those questions...when I'm almost 100% positive that anyone whose actually worked with more than a few hitters at all levels....knows exactly what it is I'm talking about. But whatevers...[smh]. :rolleyes:

My last post was a tad harsh. Not my intent. Apologies. Personally I like to help the weaker. The talented players don’t need as much help. They figure a lot out on their own. In the ego trip of coaching it is definitely exhilarating to help players improve. Not take credit. Just help them. Especially the ones others cast aside or ‘cut’.

It doesn’t matter who you ‘hit’ with or helped. What matters is the content you bring to your posts. I won’t judge you off of anything else. The post I quoted sounded to me like a cop out. I could have interpreted wrong. But I only go off what I read and see.

So if she is dynamically balanced. How would you fix the sequencing problem she has? How about the backside being stuck? How about the dragging of the bat?
