Howe, is this the part of the linked post you're referring to?

"Try explaining to her about the rear hip pivot point. If that rear hip is a point that is going forward...every thing above that point can pull backwards...with the back's muscles...that point will pull forward against rearward pull...keep pulling back and add a pivot point of the barrel turning backwards around the hands...that will equal a barrel being whipped around a corner from behind the rear hip.

Take away all thought of forcefully swinging forward into the ball.

So the leg irs, the back pulls back, creates a hpp...keep pulling back and iring will increase the stretch until it gives and whips the barrel."

Yes. The bastardization of the original SnF concept.

Ok Cha..Howe. I only know partially of how Swingbuster produced/suggested stretch and fire. I ask you to describe how it originally worked.

What does Cha..Howe mean? Is this an inside joke between you girls?

Freudian slip.

Here's something for ya to chew on fellas:

Weight Shift
•Balance in a player with the arms outstretched to either side would be at the line that bisects the pants zipper.
•When you put both hands to the back side and then add the weightof a bat back their where is the new center of gravity? It moves to a location nearer thefront inner thigh.
•What happens when you do the above and then pull on the bat thathas mass and inertia (resistance to movement)? You are more out of balance backwardsand you have no lead shoulder leverage.
•The “new balance center”at swing initiation is no longer the zipper. It is somewhere forward of that original point.
•So the weight must shift to the new balance center to be “in balance”at launch.
•Somebody once said, “There is a button on the ground in front of every batter. How and when the batter steps on that button has a lot to do with the quality of the swing.”
•Another great cue for weight shift is “move the release point more out front”or “take the knob out in front of your lead pocket before to release it”.

That bolded part above, is just one of many DEAL breakers boys. The bastardized SnF won't allow it... LOL You've been sold a load of crap, and eating it happily.

Thanks. Off to hit. I will read and mess with at the park.

While you're at it, keep in mind what the best hitter in baseball does.

 

[Cannonball]

Howe, of your cues listed, are these Epstein, Yeager, ... or your observations?

You have suggested Miggy toward me a few times...absolutely great idea...but do you see something done differently in his swing then Bonds, Davis, Craig and etc?
