Turning the barrel 5

[rdbass]

Rdbass,

Is this where you say TTB and swing forward is combined?

I say turn the barrel forward towards the ball. Just because some turn THEN go as opposed to turning the barrel AND going forward at the same time. Hence the 'turn the barrel forward'. The swing starts off 'rotational' and then becomes 'linear'. If the swing continued 'rotational', other than on a pitch in side. That 'rotational' swing would be 'around' the the body and not 'out from' the body 'linear'.

Very good answer, very informative.

Work=wins,

Is this linear enough for you,

Is this TTB from the start or is the bat the last link to rotate (lag position, pendulum effect)?

It's after tip . To me it's the transition into the 'long through' portion of the swing . Setting up the whip

Yes, the swing is rotational to linear. Where folks seem to get confused is the axis of the rotation and what is meant by being 'short'.

Would you consider TTB to be somewhat of a trigger or timing mechanism? ...

Around to, along through.

Some also refer to it as "short to long"...I like "rotational to linear" as well though (thanks HYP).

Personally not a fan of trying to get on plane early.
