@FP26, In bold is a perfect example of my quote being taken out of context. It's not productive and makes the conversation cumbersome. For reference; https://www.discussfastpitch.com/threads/swing-down.41750/post-632963@julray, don't you see that even you say that...
That's all any of "us" are saying, they're not the same barrel paths...demo to game swings.
Now not one of "us" have said that with proper sequence and posture that the "swing down" won't turn into the "behind and through" path that "we're" looking for...and have in fact told members here who use the "swing down" or "down to" instruction with their hitter(s), that they've done well with them, and that we liked their swings.
It's all about the getting the same results - getting the barrel path seen in MLB hitters' game swings - regardless of the method of instruction, and/or the cues used in getting there.
MB, I've always said that, as a matter of fact most of us have.
My point is when you or somebody else say pro demos do not match barrel path in a game swing, it's used or done in a way to discredit and devalue the pros instruction. I'm not saying all the time, but it's quite often used in such a way.
