Question(s) When you've got a 255 power guy with 4 Trajectory:

1) Do you just use Big Swing all the time?
2) Do you even bother increasing your Concentration, aka sweet spot, since Big Swing moves the sweet spot down the same for everyone.

2.1) I'm not sure I'm going to be able to afford my $2,000 per RBI donation on my 1st year salary :(

My guy has 205 power so far with 2 HRs away from career #350. I've hit 2 HRs without Big Swing. Can't say about 255 power, but it's incredibly hard to hit a HR without Big Swing.

I don't think he's saying he has 255 power. He's wondering what happens if you had 255 power.

I've got 255 Power, I'll post my PW code, and screenshot, for proof if you need it.

Yes I made the character with Success Mode using S/L

I practiced 3 times exclusively on Weights in Week 4, except an occasional Hitting when the coach showed up
I used S/L to ensure I always got at least 4 OK's, I might've allowed 3 OK's once or twice when a game followed my final practice session.
Week 1, or 2 if a game interfered, was at the Hot Dog stand

Week 3, if Carryover chocolate or Energy allowed, I'd visit Marvin at the Lake or Bison's Shop

Followup Questions:
1) Is it that hard to get 255 Power? Not trying to brag, it just didn't seem difficult. I didn't even use a Gambler Ring, Dr., or anything else 'tricky'

2) @kilmar: so my question is, since you validated you need Big Swing to get a HR, do you just ALWAYS use Big Swing?

No need to post proof. I believe you. No, it's not hard to get 255 power, but it is hard to get 255 power and everything else on A.

I use Big Swing with less than 2 strikes. With 2 strikes, I switch over to normal to prevent striking out.
