I cannot speak for others, but personally I figured out that my beliefs now are exactly the same as they were 34 pages ago... How about you?
One thing I learned before I even officially joined the forums is that words are hard... Different people interpret the words in different ways. Two people can say the exact same thing, but mean something different. Two other people can say something different but mean the exact same thing. Funny how that works...
While I agree there are different philosophies, I still believe that there is more overlap between philosophies than many people want to admit to. Admission of the similarities is a threat to their individualism.

I foubd out that Mike Trout teaches hitting differently than he really does it. No surprise though
I heard Cruz say his swing was Down n through. I think Howard said the same thing, down n through.
I don't find it strange at all.. he's also has a narrower base. But do we know the objective in his first swing, what's he working on? Is he working on "down to".. similar to what Trout is talking about here?
You're not surprised that the majority of the best hitters in the world don't understand how they hit the ball, demo/talk about/ teach/ practice what they actually don't do in a game. IDK, you could be missing something..
Not surprising at all. Ive witnessed it hundreds of times
Do you have a video of somebody following Trout's.. or any other pro's teaching on "down to" ? Just curious what "down to" means to you in a complete swing, a game swing, not a demo swing.
This is what it means to me
Here's Trout doing what he's demoing.. the demo is "hands in isolation", but still see his hands doing the same thing when integrated in the entire swing, the barrel(path) behaves differently because of the missing components

Julray respectful question please...
Are you noticing the several posters who are all acknowledging there is a disconnect from either...
1. What the pro's say or do
not being the same.
2. The words meaning different things. Need to be explained. Then get explained differently.
3. What pro to watch? They are not doing the same things.
You have made your point about watch them repeatedly.
Saying try to understand the pro's concept.
The feedback is now...
The writing on THE wall.
Seems you want to reiterate your point down to the ball down to the ball down to the ball and people have shared their perspective viewpoints and opinion they are equally as valid . Not certain your gathering that is the answer. So it's just a simple question are you acknowledging that people see this completely different than yourself and is that okay?
