Improving Bat Speed and Exit Velocity

[Cobb_of_Fury]

So does anyone have a chart of bat speeds by age?

Found this:

Grade School Softball Hitters: Up to 55 mph

High School Softball Hitters: 55-80 mph (Most hitters are in the mid-60s)

College Softball Hitters: 65-85 mph (Most hitters are in the mid 70s)

Just trying to judge where DD compares with others.
Ironically, her hitting coach did bat speed last night.

My DD is 12 and her Bat Speed ranges between 54-58 with a 30 drop 20.

She is swinging a 10oz. bat??



I assume you mean 30/20 (which is a -10).

I've seen players using a product called Hitting Jackit. The coaches and/or parents said it was supposed to help. We never tried this product.
