Forum: Instruction

This is the place to ask questions on the mechanics of the swing etc.

  1. The "Hit Reflex"

    Anyone have any drills to get that mentality out of the system? I'd really like to smooth my swing and tempo out, but just can't seem to get by that urge to knock the living snot out of the ball. Am heading down one road now and I'll report back on my results, but anyone have any ideas on how...

Any drill you can think of to help with this? Thanks for...

  4. Calling BC - Right hand drill

    I didn't want to 'jack Geoff's thread so I will do it here. BC Mist, you critique this drill but you seem to say the exact same thing as Greg does. http://members.cox.net/gregjwillis/LESSON1.htm Greg's main points: - strongly advocates a bent back right wrist - same as you (correct?)
