Short swing?

Learning how/when to 'level' ... from a good hand-set ... cures the issue.

So you feel that some handsets are better than others in terms of proper barrel path? If you look at MLB, there are a multitude of handsets.
Would you say that most fall within what you call a good handset or are they able to compensate for a less than optimal handset with their natural ability?

Edit: If by handset you meant hand position at launch, then ignore my question since it seems most good hitters get to a similar position for this...

Hand position at launch is the important one. There is some variation of this in MLB hitters, too, but most do get to a very similar position.

I watched Hudgens short swing video and like most short swings discussions, he claimed most with a long swing do not do good at the upper levels. He showed and discussed a short swing and a long swing being something where the barrel gets away from the back shoulder early.
