    SL ... I've already addressed that in the past ... including on page 3, post 27 of this thread .... How the elbows work.

    Your game is getting old ... if you have content, then add it, otherwise take a seat and relax for a spell.

    Maybe he needs video... here's Builder showing how to keep the elbows equidistant:

    Now before your retort FFS, you are a very smart person when it comes to hitting and swing mechanics. But it would be nice for a change if you did not try to belittle any person on this site that does not go by the FFS rules of swing mechanics. And also, please use common man English when you post, if we took all of these big words with us to the cage, our DD's would need a Stealth, Thesaurus and a Websters dictionary.

    Instead of trying to sound smart by using the term Equidistant, just say " the elbows are the same distance apart".

    And one more thing, please from now on only post video of students that you work with on a first hand basis. I would run the risk of being perma-baned, if you could supply us with just one clip of you actually helping some kid.

    simple request for someone that claims to have over 50 students...
    There has got to be 1 Dad and DD that want to back you that read this forum???

    SL, you've consistently received the same response. The answer hasn't changed ... nor will it change in the future. Try to memorize the answer this time. It's a simple 'no'.

    You know, at least Teacherman includes useful content with his insults.

    I could give a flying flip if ffs has any students, if we want to believe, use, like, or dislike his teaching, he at least lets everyone know what he thinks. Girls aren't going to become great hitters by just telling them to swing slow motion and end the discussion there. Frankly, besides our own dd's, I haven't seen anyone on here post video of any students.

    The Internet is a scary place... and clips tend to be used in agenda-filled attacks. I know "jbooth" doesn't post his students. Does that mean he doesn't have any? "Tewks" doesn't post his students on public sites either, so does that mean he doesn't have any? NO, it doesn't. I consider him knowledgeable, however. I'm disgusted that people have to stoop to this level on these sites. If you don't agree with someone, don't listen. It's that simple.

    Whenever you can duplicate Bustos, I'll listen to you... but I feel confident as long as you think "hip coil" isn't an absolute, you're not going to.

    SL … Redhotcoach has a point … if you have something to contribute to the thread, then do it. If your intent is to pollute, then perhaps return to a recent thread you created and do that there.

    Pstein may have been trying to make a few points with his latest post.

    SB made a similar comment about equidistant elbows from swing initiation ... and IMO this was an oversight. The fusion process is dynamic, or at least it should be dynamic, and requires some amount of the rear shoulder lowering/slotting before being realized. During that time the distance between the elbows will be reduced.

    Another point that Pstein may have been trying is wrt to Lateral tilt … or the shoulder tilting process … and how this tends to connect the shoulders to the hip drive (leg drive) and how this is involved in the process of lining the barrel up on plane with the pitch.

    SL ... you know no such thing. Please take your lies somewhere else. If you have some data to refute what has been written, then please post that and contribute to the discussion ... and drop the non-informative pollution-type posting.
