A issue that keeps creeping up with my DD is the Early-to be-late. She will start, then pause, and wait for the ball, and start again. By that time its too late. The swing should be a continuous flow from beginning to end. She doesn't have this issue on tee or front toss only live. I asked her yesterday what is going through her head and she confirmed whats stated in the article. She said she starts, but then feels like she is too early, she said then I pause and wait to see the ball.
Ken's article is spot on of what she is dealing with.

Pick the front foot up on time (just before pitch release). That will fix her timing. Then address the mechanics of what happens when she picks the front foot up (coil, stride, move forward etc). Gonna feel weird at first but she will get used to it. Front foot up on time with a controlled forward move is your goal. Good luck
Thanks will read and hopefully we can make some improvements but appreciate all of y’all’s help/info and critique.
