This is why people have been obsessed with the pivot for so long. The hands will not complain...they will just comply! Prescription: 10 startdown waggles for each and every ball hit. Hit one thousand balls.
Call me in 6 months!
This assumes that you know how to execute a downstroke waggle!
You can trace till you are blue in the face. Thrust knowing lag is a must. But you will never get it until you learn to pivot! My ball striking improved when I learned about zone 2 and zone 3, but as Mr. Kelley said the pivot needs to be trained first. It is as simple as 1...2...3! The man knew his subject!
