That is ok. I dont expect that. A literal rocket scientist gave you a bunch of info and you didn't bother to read or think about it.

If you read my posts you would have seen that I said it’s an anatomy thing. Not a physics thing. Kinda why I only read a bit of Pattars stuff and new it was the same blah blah. Old news. Well It’s about what is delivering/stabilizing the barrel. Not the barrel.

I have given valid examples. I have explained the one handed HR. I have given a reason that hasn’t been disproven. But I’m the one who doesn’t know. My reasoning can explain why. Others not so much. I’m fine with that.

The only example you gave is anecdotal evidence from "your eye"

The same "eye" that saw the obliques move the hips.

You're the guy that said "you can have too much batspeed".

And now this.

If the ball goes farther with the same bat its because the girl swung it faster.

Your "observations and beliefs" have been provably incorrect on multiple occasions.

Other people humor you. I will not.

You are a joke.

Can a 15yo kid w 70 mph bat speed hit as far as a pro player w 70 mph bat speed? I don’t think so. Why is that? Maybe bc it’s like shooting a catapult from a canoe vs the ground. A bit better stabilization to repel the ball? More mass to stabilize the Hit? Explains why bigger guys hit it farther.

Don't matter what you think. The same bat going the same speed with same contact will hit the ball the same way.

Are you sure about that... if so, what data do we have to back it up? I don’t mean equations and scientific theory. I’m talking about data.

I’m interested in this conversation, don’t have a side and don’t care if I’m wrong. I am a data person, professionally , don’t have a clue about physics, so I won’t pretend I do
