Yeah, I'm afraid the distinction between practical hitting and technical hitting forums has been lost.
Oops. I forgot which section I was in. Ken, if you feel a need to delete my posts, go ahead and delete them.

Actually, that would be a bad assumption on your part.
I did write that, but it came right of the RVP product, word for word. I was simply using it as "back up" to what Wellphyt said, which is why I said aka Skip a Rock.
Not everything has to be so technical and difficult to understand. I respect that you have a vast understanding of the body and what you percieve to be the correct way of doing things. However, I will revert back to Don Slaught again and say that instructors need to let the drills do the teaching and find ways to teach by having a student feel the correct movement through drills, such as Skipping a Rock which is a Drill I use and have good success with which is why I said to be careful about bat drag.
When I come to the practical hitting forum, I expect to discuss the practice of drills and ways to get a student to feel and perform the correct actions. I don't necessarily need a technical white paper on why it is that a hitter must pronate this or internally rotate that. If I do, I'll be happy to see you on the technical hitting forum, or better yet visit Mr. Englishbey on his site.
See the above.
If you tell them to skip a rock they will probably get the idea of what you want.
See the above.
ok I googled gutterball and still don't know what it is : >
Maybe a regional thing (with another name elsewhere?)
