Jones responded (on October 23): “This is awesome right here! Lil Jonesy is a banger! There is nothing at all wrong with this swing. In fact….I’m jealous. Sinks into back knee and hip. Great balance post swing. Flat bat all the way thru the zone. Efficient, powerful, consistent swing. No pointers coming from me other than to keep feeding the passion! Young fella has a bright future with that swing. Well done….”
