I would read every post by Ted Fort about Hitting. A video I posted called Hitter's Row shows Lynn Swinging in the foreground and Ted Hitting in the background. A beauty to loop and watch over and over.
Well, I referenced tour(s) which includes many more players to model, not just The Tour. I just seems to me that there are not enough professionals, past or present, who do this to say its an optimal way to try to play the game. Especially when you see comments on this site such as "toe in the face to negate the fade tendency of hitting"....whats that about?

After Ted as an example, who else you got?
