In this Posey gif, between the pauses represent where I believe the greatest torque exists.
Mann,
That's what you think...
And demo:You are pushing into the bag.
Posey is not pushing or apply more torque into the ball.
Posey is 'whipping' the barrel into the ball.
Posey launches his swing and directs the barrel to the ball but, does not apply any more speed nor torque to the barrel.
Pivot/push into the bag.I am using hands to really pivot the bat.
Yes,if you don't turn your hands. You would have push them(arms) out straight but, the bag was in the way.I thought pushing was when you pushed your arms out straight.
Mann,
You turn the barrel with your shoulders then push to contact/bag. If you turn the barrel with the shoulders only and not the hands how else could you reach the bag. You must push the barrel to the bag.
'Turn the barrel'
Pivot/push into the bag.
Try taking a swing into the bat.
so you saying that I am not teaching this young lady to turn the barrel correctly?
And you believe what you wrote...what can I say....but, noI turn the barrel with my shoulders and my hands.
