The Top Arm


Look at contact position in the first two clips. Most amateur hitting can not comfortably get to this position because there are trying to take the bat straight to the ball and get extension. Ideal contact position is with a 90 degree bend still in the top hand. That is the position of strength not with the arms extended. In the three clips above watch the top arm and how the top arms' elbow and shoulder create depth in the swing. A way that clicks with a lot of my guys is, " take the tip of your top elbow and try to jam it into your back hip bone to start the swing. This is impossible but may create the action you are looking for.
