Very Nice post!!
I really enjoyed this one. So am I correct in assuming that a hitter should still have wristcock and forearm rotation but it's just not as much as a swinger?
It seems to me that most pics I've seen of pure hitters like this also may indicate that hitters keep the right foot down after impact a slight bit longer?
Sorry for all the questions but I'm so confused about TGM right now.
First Question:
Should a hitter have wristcock?
No, a hitter can have wrist cock, but that could destroy some of the radial motion of hitting. It is better to think of the right wrist as level throughout the backswing and into impact.
Should a hitter have right forearm rotation?
Yes, the difference from a swinger is that a hitter gradually rotates from address all the way to the top. The right forearm than gradualy squares up from top to impact.
You could say Appleby looks so good because his rate of rotation is so good as a hitter the forearm gradually rotates all the way through the stroke.
I have learned the above from my time spent with Yodasluke and Annikan Skywalker. As for your second question I will leave that for them to answer.
