Doesn't some of this advice seem odd? Keeping hand separated? Keep weight on front leg? Keep back leg straight?

Doesn't seem like Cobb swung that way:

You can't tell anything with those old 1910's hand-crank Aeroscope cameras.

Hell, look at football...every football player runs about 150 miles an hour.

Leon Wagner swung with power with hands separated.


The theory is that as the top hand is propelling the bat more than the bottom hand ..just before contact the bottom hand pulls the knob back toward the body causing bat head speed to increase.
