This is a bit deeper than you might want to go.. but The early planing that Alexis is doing is why the barrel isn’t accelerating at go. It appears that she has been taught to get the bat ‘on plane’ early.... horrible cue imo. Almost always leads to a ‘push’. It should be get the bat on plane ‘deep’.
what really should be happening is the barrel/hands/arms should be kept out of plane so segmenting or sequencing of the upper can happen. It tightens the springs of the upper body and will help create better whip. The lower has more time to leverage and create more separation with the core as well.
a simple cue of ‘keep the barrel vertical longer’ or don’t plane the pitch until as late as possible should help. Your dd has a flatter bat set so it should work more back towards her head during the forward move. Not a cue just a result; Keeping the barrel ‘closed’ longer. A simple hand cock down can give the body more time to stretch as well. Some call it tip and rip. Personally I like a modified ‘halfway home’ drill. To each his own.
sorry, I lost track of your thread the last week or so.
