Do we teach what we really seeor do we teach what we were taught? Hitting has changed dramatically over the past five years. Colleges and high schools must use minus 3 bats (essentially a wood bat), which will decrease bat speed and power dramatically, lowering productivity. Horror stories of players going from aluminum to wood bats is well documented. Will this be any different for YOU or YOUR players? Instructors and players are finally able to purchase a DVD to learn how to teach and use these wood bat mechanics. And nobody teaches this better than Mike Epstein, one of the brilliant hitting instructors in the game today. Nine-year major leaguer, mentored by Ted Williams, Epstein always seems to find a simple way to teach the complexities of the big league swing. With major leaguers down through amateurs, baseball and softball, Epstein has demonstrated the teaching skills necessary to execute. And now, with this DVD, so can you! In Part 1, frame-by-frame video points out the elusive common thread used by baseballs productive hitters. Torque and its critical importance is clearly shown. These visual images allow you to teach/learn the hitting mechanics that produce unparalleled accelerated development. In Part 2, Epstein demonstrates his proprietary drills which absolutely put the hitter into the same advantaged hitting positions seen in Part 1. Repeated viewing will help the instructor/player emulate the hitting mechanics of 95% of baseballs Hall of Fame hitters, including every player on this years all-star team. Experience a new-found confidence with dramatically higher on-base and slugging percentages (OPS).
