easiest way to tell him to pound sand is if she is mashing the ball all over the yard. I could can care less about any hitter's mechanics, AS LONG AS THEY ARE HITTING THE BALL HARD.
Correct. However, my DD is struggling with her timing, and is hitting way below her usual self. When she squares one up, it's crushed, but it hasn't happened enough recently. The mechanical issues contributing to her struggles have been identified, but she hasn't been able to bring the adjustment into the box consistently. Coach's idea of "fixing" things is in direct conflict with her swing pattern approach, and would push her further out of where her best pattern is.
