"stretch.......................and fire" During batting practice. This is the time to be doing the thinking.

True. Thank you.
You can use a door stopper or Howard uses a golf device you can get in most golf stores that clicks. It is cheap. Probably can google it.

That SKLZ power wedge costs under $12 on Amazon, so of course I ordered it.

I should get a big commission from SKLZ for that sale!
Personally, I teach my girls to weight shift out onto the big toe as they are identifying the pitch.Once they have committed to the ball, then drop the heel, thus completing the weight transfer onto the front leg. Its this separation that will allow her to still hit for power on off speeds or change ups. The hips do rotate a bit in front of the hands (thats the stretch) but thats for power and not nescicerally a timing issue.
