    What’s the feedback on these now that you’ve had them a little while?

    Marucci Echo DMND two piece

    Anyone got any feedback on this newcomer? DD is looking for another bat. Been swinging the OG dual stamp Ghost for the past few years.

    Back foot

    I was watching the Elite Baseball guy the other day and he was saying that you apply pressure to your instep as long as you can and then when the back hip starts to rotate, the foot inevitably comes off the ground. He was saying that you really shouldn't have any flexion in your toes until you...

    No load

    This video is great as far as I'm concerned and should help her create more power and more rhythm to her swing.

    seeing some progression so I think. At least with the scapula load. Still bringing her hands into her body to get the elbow slotted.On this swing she also “reloads” because her timing is a bit off but really solid contact with a nice solid “power v” at contact. The pvc drill I think will really...

    Looking for feedback

    Yes thats what I was saying in the very first post. I guess I don’t know what turning the barrel is because it looks like she is to me. Albeit since her hands don’t go back far enough her path isn’t as long in the zone. I agree with the thought of getting her elbow “up” a little on the scapular...

    I believe that is where she is getting out most often. I do think she hit the ball harder and more consistently in the Fall then ever but she also swung and missed more then I have ever seen her do as well with a fair amount of ground balls to led to outs obviously.

    Looking for feedback

    Changeups are definitely not her friend. She does have a somewhat forward stance at the plate in relation to the plate to attempt to "cut" the changeup off a bit but yes she struggles with "staying back". Im sure thats a combination of pitch recognition and timing. So are you saying that her...

    Looking for feedback

    The higher tee(top) is mostly middle, the lower tee(bottom) is inner half. I agree about the separation but does that mean moving her hands back further or increasing her stride?? Shes one of those kids that a creature of comfort. Shes always had a short stride. Here's a couple videos from the...

    They used this at the VA Tech camp we went to. I definitely want to implement this.

    Looking for feedback

    Second yr 14u. From connection to contact I feel like it’s pretty solid. The load to connection I fell like is the issue. She always brings her hands in to her body which I feel is limiting things and I can’t figure out how to reprogram that.

    14yo Maddie

    Eric - How is Maddie working on this. My DD has a similar issue where the bat head is turned down if you will and were getting pop ups, foul backs, just misses, etc. For mine its also about timing. Id like for her to hit the ball out front a little more often which I think will obviously help...
