I love this forum, and my DD who’s now 17 has turned out to be a pretty good hitter. I’m now trying to teach my son the same HLP.
Right now, however, he’s been in a bit of a slump. Swing looks pretty darn good, but he’s slicing just under the ball whether the bat is vertical to diagonal on a lower pitches or horizontally under a higher pitch. He’s fouling back balls or just missing slicing the ball away. I’m not sure if he’s just tired from school ball flowing into travel ball or it’s something mechanical. He swings a 33/30, so we might go down to a 32/29 for a little more barrel control, even though his swing shows he’s still on time and it’s a relative blur.
Any advice?
