"Simply, Mike Epstein is a hitting genius. In
addition to being a superb hitting instructor, he has that rare ability to
communicate his knowledge of hitting in a way that everyone can understand -
and use.
There's no question in my mind that this book will favorably impact hitting
philosophy in a way that has never been equaled before.
This is the best hitting material in
print that I have seen."

If this book does not answer all your questions, I also give hands-on, one-on-one instruction, in Denver, Colorado. Many out-of-town players and coaches take advantage of this. I only take on a limited number of students per year. If you have interest, you can find more information by contacting me at info@mikeepsteinhitting.com or clicking www.mikeepsteinhitting.com/instruction.htm.
You can also click on www.mikeepsteinhitting.com for more useful tips and timely information. Clicking on the [Support Forum] and [Troubleshooting] buttons can give you answers to the questions that invariably come up from time to time in your teaching process.
As always, I am grateful to you for allowing me to be part of your hitting education, and appreciate your continued interest.
Good luck, continued success, and "get a good pitch to hit!"
