Do most ballers learn bunting from my book ? I hope so, it is excellent. Highly recommended. And yes, that is where I learned all I know, half way up Mt. Rainier, no toothpaste, no salad dressing. I walked down uphill in the cold. And I liked it, I loved it. That's just how I am

not me, if that is what you are implying

It's fairly easy to lay down a bunt off a batting practice fastball, but a lot harder to put it down fair (and not straight back to the pitcher) when the pitcher is trying to get you out.

I'm guessing every major league player could do it well enough if they dedicated their waking lives to it, but it takes a lot more work than just going out a few afternoons and working on it.

I do think technique matters, and most major league players have poor bunting technique. I sat through a bunting class by Paul Runge and now I see all the flaws with everyone's technique. You're supposed to adjust to the height of the pitch by bending your knees rather than angling the bat. When you angle the bat, that's when you are more likely to bunt foul. But it's a completely alien movement to bend your knees with the pitch like that, which is why it takes a bunch of practice at realistic pitching speeds (and ideally against breaking balls, too).

Footwork and knee movement are so important in nearly every sport. Even corn hole is all about bending your knees. Ok that can be misinterpreted

Wow, I’d have guessed Young would be much higher than that.
