    looking for help

    thanks all! What she is attempting to do is not stride but start her swing by moving her knee back then forward. I will try to slow it down so I can see what you guys are talking about. So, we would be better getting wider with either a small stride or no stride and get rid of the the knee...

    getting lower half going

    some of kids use the legs and hips but it appears to be at a minimum. I show them the power they get from doing it and they try it and it looks like they get very little. I just need something to teach them the feeling of really driving thru the ball. They look like they are going after it at...

    getting lower half going

    I am haveing a difficult time in getting some kids to use their legs in driving thru the ball vs spinning on their back foot. Is there a device out there or key phrases I should be using. I am having a hard time. I have had them watch video but I can't get them to do it??? Help!

    getting frustrated

    If I am only with them once a week to work with them isn't a majority of it on them to work on things we work on while away from me? I can only do so much. My dd is putting in more time than any of the others. She has had some good momnets but the others look no better to me in a game...

    getting frustrated

    the problem is they have bad habits that they need to work on to get rid of which they do when they are with me but I am not with them 5 days a week. A prime example is the dropping of the hands as their 1st move, which they think gets the bat on plane. We all know it doesn't. I do tee and...

    Reverse Hand Hitting Drills

    I don't think you are. It is the top hand is on the bat upside down. Thumb on the bottom vs thumb on the top. Very good drill.

    getting frustrated

    the funny thing is they think the good players don't put in the time. I try to tell tehm that the best put in time every day. Not just when its convienent. I am going to tell them tonight that they either commit to getting better or I am walking away. But the ball in their court so to speak.

    getting frustrated

    Working with dd and a group of her buds. Work with them and they look decent doing some good things. Get to game time and they fall right back to all the bad habits. I work with them 2 times a week. I know I am not a miracle worker but I feel like I am hitting my head against the wall. I...
