* DO YOU HAVE A GREAT SWING BUT LACK CONSISTENT HARD CONTACT AND DISTANCE?
"AS A MATTER OF FACT, YOUR GREAT SWING IS ONLY 50% OF THE EQUATION. TED WILLIAMS SAID 50% OF SUCCESSFUL HITTING IS FROM THE NECK UP AND IS A HUGE PART OF SUCCESS OR FAILURE."
"IN FACT, TO PROVE THIS, IN 1969 TED WILLIAMS TOOK OVER MANAGING THE WASHINGTON SENATORS.IN 1967, THE SENATORS HIT .223 AS A TEAM. IN 1968 THEY HIT .224 AS A TEAM. IN 1969, TED WILLIAMS FIRST YEAR, THEY HIT .251 AS A TEAM AND TED DIDN'T CHANGE ONE HITTERS SWING OR STANCE. OBVIOUSLY HE JUST TAUGHT THEM HOW TO THINK AND WHAT TO LOOK FOR. HE RAISED THE TEAMS BATTING AVERAGE ALMOST .30 POINTS. WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT 30 POINTS ON ANYONE'S AVERAGE IS HUGE!"
"THERE IS NO QUESTION THAT YOUR .300 OR .400 AVERAGE COULD BE .430 , .450, OR EVEN .500 WITH SPECIALIZED TRAINING IN PROPER THINKING WITHOUT CHANGING YOUR MECHANICS OR SWING."
* DO YOU LOOK TO HIT ALL PITCHES IN AREAS OF THE PLATE ALL THE TIME?
"THE FACT IS, YOU CAN'T TRY TO HIT OUTSIDE AND INSIDE, HIGH AND LOW, SLOW AND FAST, ON EVERY PITCH, OR YOUR GREAT SWING WILL DISINTEGRATE AND DISAPPEAR DUE TO BAD TIMING AND POOR BODY POSITIONING."
* DO YOU KNOW HOW TO PICK UP PITCHER'S TENDENCIES?
"WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT VERY SUCCESSFUL HITTERS AT HIGH LEVELS HAVE LEARNED HOW TO SHRINK THE STRIKE ZONE TO THEIR ADVANTAGE IN ORDER TO GET MORE GOOD PITCHES TO HIT FOR POWER, PRODUCTION, AND SUCCESS. GREAT HITTERS ARE GREAT FOR REASONS YOU NEVER SEE. THERE IS NO QUESTION THAT NOW YOU CAN SEE AND LEARN WHY THEY ARE SO HUGELY PRODUCTIVE AND HIT WITH SUCH GREAT POWER."
* DO YOU KNOW WHAT A TENDENCY IS?
"IT IS CLEARLY EVIDENT THAT IF YOU KNOW HOW TO PICK UP WHAT PITCHES THE PITCHER IS GOING TO THROW IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS, YOU CAN GREATLY ELIMINATE WHAT TO LOOK FOR AND GAIN A HUGE ADVANTAGE AGAINST THE PITCHER MULTIPLYING YOUR PRODUCTION AND POWER."
* DO YOU KNOW HOW TO PICK UP WHEN THE PITCHER IS TIPPING HIS PITCHES?
"OBVIOUSLY, IF YOU LEARN HOW THE PITCHER IS TIPPING HIS PITCHES, YOU WILL KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IS COMING ALLOWING YOU TO HIT MORE HOME RUNS AND DRIVING IN TONS OF MORE RUNS. THERE IS NO QUESTION THAT THIS WILL GIVE YOU MORE RECOGNITION WITH HIGH SCHOOL COACHES, COLLEGE SCOUTS, PROFESSIONAL SCOUTS AND SELECT TEAM COACHES LOOKING TO RECRUIT PLAYERS FOR THE BEST TEAMS IN THE CITY. WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT AWARDS, ACCOLADES, RESPECT, AND STRIKING FEAR IN THE PITCHER ARE ALL FANTASTIC ADVANTAGES FOR A HITTER."
* ARE YOU CONFIDENT ENOUGH IN YOURSELF TO TRUST YOUR KNOWLEDGE SO YOU CAN FOCUS ON YOUR PLAN AT THE PLATE AND TRUST YOURSELF TO EXECUTE IT SUCCESSFULLY?
"AS A MATTER OF FACT, EVERY HITTER AND COACH KNOWS THAT HITTING WITHOUT CONFIDENCE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO BE CONSISTENT. OBVIOUSLY, HAVING A GREAT SWING ALONE WILL NOT GET YOU ON ELITE TEAMS, HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS, IN COLLEGE OR PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL. WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT THE SMARTEST HITTERS CONTINUE ON TO GREAT CAREERS WHILE THE OTHERS HAVE THEIR CAREERS END PREMATURELY WITHOUT THEIR CHOICE. DON'T LET THAT BE YOU!"
* DO YOU KNOW HOW TO ELIMINATE CERTAIN PITCHES AND LOCATIONS FROM A PITCHERS ARSENAL?
"IN FACT, IF YOU LEARN HOW TO ELIMINATE CERTAIN PITCHES, AND OR LOCATIONS, YOU CAN GREATLY INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD THAT YOU WILL HIT MORE HOME RUNS, HIT FOR MORE EXTRA BASE POWER, GET MORE BIG HITS, AND DRIVE IN HUGE RUNS FOR YOU AND YOUR TEAM. THERE IS NO QUESTION THAT THERE WILL BE A HUGE INCREASE IN YOUR STATISTICS AND YOUR STATUS AS A PLAYER AND PROSPECT WITH A VERY GOOD POSSIBILITY OF GETTING A COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP OR GETTING DRAFTED INTO PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL."
* DO YOU KNOW WHAT TRIGGERS YOUR SWING?
"OBVIOUSLY, WITHOUT GREAT TIMING YOU CAN'T HIT DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND DIFFERENT LOCATIONS FOR SOLID CONTACT OR POWER THUS RENDERING USELESS YOUR GREAT SWING. CLEARLY, YOU CAN LEARN HOW TO SYNC YOUR GREAT SWING WITH GREAT TIMING AND SPECIALIZED ANTICIPATION SKILLS TO HUGELY INCREASE YOUR STATISTICS, POWER, HOME RUN PRODUCTION AND ADVANCE YOUR CAREER TO THE HIGHEST LEVELS."
