Hi,
Using myself as a Guinea Pig because I do have this issue in my own swing as well. Heel plants and I still slip forward a little. Look at the swing below;
Cheers
I know it's not technically the correct place to post this, at the same time it is a very technical part of the game and affects hitting. Anybody else hating the humidor? I mean part of what I love about this game is the different ball parks and their attributes. For example Fenway Park and the...
Girls are done playing ball and I found a hardball rec league to play in :). So I am gonna post some swings and document my journey to try to understand what we put our girls through, LOL. It's been a long time since I've played, 15 years + and I have a lot to work on. I am open to all hitting...
I'm not a big fan of TTB.. but it's amazing what Dante has done with some of the Blue Jays hitters this season. More hitters are buying in as the season goes on as well. Many many hits to Oppo and UTM.
Listen to what he has to say here
(2:19)
I'm also not saying TTB is the reason for their...
Bichette's 2 strike approach is well documented (on the right).....
....but I've been noticing many of the Jays adapting this approach this year as well.. All resulting in 2 strike HR's below
I've seen Vladdy do this quite often as well but can't find any video. Anybody else noticing...
I've seen this referenced several times and I don't think I understand the concept. First of all when posting in this thread I think we need to define what pre-pitch is. To me pre-pitch is prior to any motion by pitcher, the pitcher is standing on the mound reading the signs and batter is in...
Might seem strange to some of you that I would post this here... however maybe some other parents are experiencing or will experience what I’ve been through this year. DD made one the best teams here in the region this year, likely to challenge for a national title. She told me right before the...
Can somebody explain how TTB(TM's version with immediate supination) creates lag.. vs keeping the wrist cocked while staying connected. TTB is all about creating early bat speed, not sure how you can create early batspeed and create lag at the same time.. in order to create you early batspeed...
Created this thread so we do not clutter Coach-Q's thread which is a practical hitting thread where he is sharing his experiences with one of his hitters
Let it get deep discussion started on this page I believe.

Softball, baseball, power hitters, all around hitters etc. It's been debated many times, and I have flip flopped on this so much. I'm just searching for the truth, whatever helps my DD. I don't think I can ignore all these great hitters and what their intentions are...
You know the feeling you get when jammed inside, feels like you hand is bruised. This happens to my DD when hitting off a machine. Makes no difference if she squares it up or not.. hitting off a machine hurts her hand. She's not one to complain and would play on one leg, so I am wondering what...
Normally we go to Michigan, Ohio or New York.. this year we are heading further south than ever, which I am sure is still quite north for many of you, :)
May 23-25: Memorial Day Madness - Wilmington DE, USA
July 2 -5: Midwest Firecracker Showcase - Indianapolis IN, USA
Indianapolis seems like...
So DD has figured somethings out and we are seeing big improvements with her swing and great contact. She played in 6 games over the weekend and only 3 AB's resulted in a weak ground ball or popup. Her contact rate is through the roof and she's hitting the ball hard.... mostly line shots and...
So if I go through the process of a swing step by step and freeze at each interval... when I get to heel plant I can feel tension/stretch throughout my core. My DD does the same thing and she cannot.. This puzzles me. I can manipulate her form however I want and she feels nothing..lol. I ask her...
This thread isn't about me, but about a hitter I know. I believe this is happening because the hitter is rolling over and the swing is around the ball, instead of inside and through the ball. This hitter has hit line drives to center or opposite field, but never ever hit a bomb. Quite often the...
