Diagnosing problems in a complex motor skill over the internet without at least seeing a video clip of the hitter in question is a matter of guessing. And yes, much of the advice on the net and down at the local batting cage does not stand up under scrutiny when checking said advice against slow motion video of the best in the world. If that makes you angry rather than sending you to video of the best in the world to help me learn what I don't understand then perhaps you should consider comparing everything you believe about swing mechanics to slow motion video of the best in the world?
My pet peeve is people who take money to teach kids things about hitting that a few minutes with slow motion video of the best in the world would show to be NOT what the best in the world actually do. No doubt you may have the resume you claim. I can find others with equal or better resumes who say you are wrong. Then I can find others with sparkling resumes who say all of you are wrong. So how's a dad or mom supposed to figure out who to believe? I suggest of course, comparing everything anyone says to slow motion video of the best in the world. It's not a perfect test for reasons that deserve a thread of their own, but it's the best truth detector the average parent or young hitter has.
