Practice bunting so that you hide it until the last second. Don't tip off your bunt. QUOTE]

Excellent and often overlooked bunting advice. Why tip a bunt and give a pitcher a chance to come in tight on you or throw you a difficult pitch to bunt.

Never understood logic in #1 and 2 hitters (almost always with foot speed) showing bunt way to soon. If you are a proficient bunter and (1 & 2 better be) then wait, bunt it smart and increase chances of bunting for a hit. Worse case is you still move the runner with a SAC bunt.
