Pivot / Non-Pivot Stroke Delivery

[tongzilla]

Wonder what Mr. K's input would be here? Tong are you talking 4 Barrel Stroke for the YOU at the "MASTER's level of execution?"

Or the less efficient like . . . well . . . 12 piece bucket?


10-4-D FOUR BARREL This high performance Four Accumulator Combination can produce many problems during its mastery by the player. But it can make the difference in top competition. Well controlled Double or Triple Barrel Combinations have little to fear from the Four Barrel Combination that is less than fully mastered.

I reckon it depends on who's pulling the trigger on the shotgun . . .

Yes, I'm saying at the "Master's Level of Execution", the 3-Barrel Swing will out-perform the 3-Barrel Hit distance-wise.

Note I didn't say anything about scoring performance.

Also Homer's comment about the "many problems during its mastery..." is directed more to the Swinger than the Hitter. In other words, the 4-Barrel Swing is not recommended at all, but the 4-Barrel Hit is recommended once you've mastered the 3-Barrel version.

4-barrel swinging is a NO NO. I am in your camp!

Depends on the person, their strength and their flexibility, but I would agree for 'most' people that is a fair statement. Many factors involved though.
