DDs has been going to a new hitting coach for about 3 months now. About a month ago he cut lessons off short and told her next time she came in to bring a bat that is at least 2ozs lighter than what she has been swinging for the last year. DD is 5'4" and about 130lbs and has been swinging a 32/22 Xeno.
I asked what the purpose of going to such a small bat was and he said he wanted to "retrain her hands". I will admit that her swing does look faster with the lighter bat but she looks very stiff to me almost like she trying to manhandle it all the way through her swing.
I am no hitting guru but this approach just doesn't seem right to me.
