5.0 out of 5 stars Charlie Hustle Knows Hitting, November 15, 2005

By	bc (Cedar Park,TX) - See all my reviews

This is a great book for teaching a hard-nosed, common-sense approach when digging in at the plate. No one knew the situation at the plate than Charlie Hustle. Pete Rose thought going 2-4 was an off day. Now THAT's a tough mental approach that I can respect.

The chapters dealing with the mechanics of a solid swing are great. Perhaps even better are the numerous mental tips on how to approach an at-bat for all situations and hitting styles. My wife and I are expecting a son in February and this will be his first book I buy him...right after the Bible, of course.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hitting Student's Self Help Manual, May 8, 2002

By	"johnnyheck" (Charlotte, NC USA) - See all my reviews

Excellent job of explaining the most important fundamentals succintly with inspiring mental approach to the game. Great large format pictures accompany the text. Advanced topics include details on the two strike stroke, practical reasons for a hitchless compact swing, and other useful "insider" tips. Text should be easy to read by any player 12+.
