![]() ![]() I have lined up the points where true acceleration happens in the top photos. ![]() Notice anything similar in the next two pictures? Below are photos of Bryce Harper and Tiger Woods. Try to bridge the gap to the baseball swing for yourself as you are watching. Here is a great video about the "flail principle" and how it relates to golf. The golf swing is like the distant cousin of the baseball swing. The same principals of bio-mechanics and physics are at work in other sports. Now, I know that seems like a lot of technical jargon but simply put, we want the barrel to be fast way before contact. Once the barrel gets to a point, we release through the rest of the zone. As we continue to turn, we will maintain that ACCELERATED barrel. The magic word there is "ACTUALLY." Outside of The Baseball Rebellion, anybody I discuss the swing with will immediately say that, "The barrel should be moving the fastest at contact." This idea would make sense because speed at contact is what we want right? WRONG! We want speed into the zone (path of the ball). The problem for most people in regards to bat speed or barrel acceleration is when it actually happens. Where does it start and how is it created? This could possibly be one of, if not, the most controversial aspects of the swing among those looking for the best way. ![]()
