Here is DDs latest game swing. She was facing a pretty good pitcher throwing in the low 60s.
Swing seems pretty deep. What are your thoughts ?

I am looking to get observations on the degree and direction of the Tip and how it relates to the degree/angle of the swing plane.
It seems to me that how a batter tips in regards to direction/degree/magnitude of the tipping affects the angle/degree of the swing plane.
So, for example, I...
Alright... sort of feel my DDs swing is on the right track. Now starting to take a look at my sons swing for really the first time.
Hopefully you don't mind that I am posting my sons swing on here :o

Hi everyone,
I am thinking of purchasing a cheap pitching machine to work on catching skills with my DD.
It seems like you could work on receiving, blocking and pop ups pretty easily if you had a machine.
I have seen a ton of spring training MLB videos on youtube with the catchers working on...
Still trying to figure it out. She has been squaring the ball up very well lately.
We just played a state 10u state tournament (84 degrees in FL) this last weekend and she was crushing everything.
Please let me know your thoughts & suggestions.

Should the front foot land:
1. Closed.
2. Open.
3. Parallel to back...
If someone had perfect mechanics what types of workouts would be beneficial in increasing batspeed and or power. (No mechanical Changes).
I have heard people talk about...
1) underloading bp
2) overloading bp
3) medicine ball throws
..... (anything else)...
Just looking for opinions and...
My 10yo DD has been working on Scap loading a little bit and it seems to have helped her gain batspeed. We have also noticed that she is able to hit changeups better by holding the scapular load a little longer.

In relation to the front foot when should the Scapula...
Still working on her swing. Trying to get more SNF.
Took video with iPhone and tried slowing it down a bit so quality is not great.

Let me know what you think.
I think my 10 yo DD has figured it out. To me her swing looks pretty good. Please let me know what you think. She has been working on it for a bit. We are looking to generate as much power as possible.

I have my DD now tipping & ripping to prevent flattening out to early behind her.

I have her not really focusing on tipping the barrel but really just raising the back elbow going up as she strides.
She seems to like it. Swing looks quicker and more powerful. She...
