Ben Carlson: Experience Is Overrated

FYI: Charley Lau is widely respected in baseball circles as one of the greatest hitting coaches in the history of Major League Baseball.

His book, The Art of Hitting .300, is regarded as one of the best instructional guides into the science behind a good swing.

Here’s the problem — Lau never hit .300 in a single season during his years as a professional baseball player. In fact, his career batting average was just .255.

Experience can help in certain areas but it’s often overrated in terms of separating the winners from the losers.
Regards,
Ted
