Just a small update: It's funny makes things click with kids, this when we started with the helicopter drill she immediately noticed how much louder the "woosh" sound was when using her hands during her swing. She looked at me and said "that was loud" and I said "that's power" and just like that she was sold lol
I said this before but thanks for all the input
See a lot of Sierra in Ximena. Would take a look at the path of the bottom elbow and bottom hand.Swing From Today
Looking for some analysis on dd swing, 8yo first spring in 10u. Has about 25 at bats against girls now actually trying to get her out. So far she mostly hits ground balls anything up the middle is usually hard but will roll over to short or third at times.
She gives up the coil, no stretch, no connection between her lowerbody and upper body.
Starts with the hands beyond the back foot as she shifts (weight shifts) forward and slots the back elbow. Or all back and all forward. In any case the hands/bat collapse into the body as they come forward.
What loads unloads.
