Yes, RHC ...we have been playing around with COG. It appears that COG is what primarily controls the swing plane. If COG is too far back the swing may be too up for the plane of the pitch. If its too far forward then the swing may be too flat or at its worse ...down.
Basically the location of COG needs to correspond to the angle and location of the pitch. In softball the COG would typically be a little more forward than baseball because the pitch plane is flatter.
Its actually pretty cool.
Here is her swing with COG a little further back.

Interesting batdragon. im curious, center of gravity COG and how this effects the swing plane. I understand the leaning back would effect the plane, as a million other twitches in the barrel path, but as it pertains the COG, Since the COG is multidirectional, wouldn't a COG over the plate also effect the swing plane?
I almost forgot, great young lady, I am sure she can hit with any variation of the swings I see here.
