    Pro glider bat

    I don't have the pro glider, but was looking to get one. coachbob, was it easy for the girls to 'cheat' and still send the balls up the middle? If I did get it, I would have seen myself having the girls use it, after instruction, largely unsupervised because of the feedback that the bat claims...

    Critique of a National Player's Swing

    Chris, thanks for your input. They are interesting and insightful. But, this girl doesn't have varus knees. She has pretty neutral feet supination too. She walks as such because she has monster thighs. Lol. This girl competes in powerlifting in her free time and squats 242lbs. She's a beast...

    Critique of a National Player's Swing

    Yeah I think so too. I have been using more cues that have her drive more of her weight into the front hip, but her rear foot/leg remains as such. I don't see anything broken, just that its not something I see other good hitters do, and I am not sure if I should be explicitly changing it.

    Critique of a National Player's Swing

    Critique of a National Player's Swing

    To provide more insight as to what the 'japanese style' of batting entails, this is one of her team's coaches demonstrating what she thinks of it.

    Bug Squishing, why not?

    What are some drills you do, Ken, to teach an athlete to generate power from the back side, driving into the ball?

    Critique of a National Player's Swing

    I have been having her focus on weight transfer during the loading phase and swing phase, finding the correct slot with her rear elbow (I do quite a bit of the enforcer drill), and keeping both elbows equidistant during the swing (and maintaining the box/triangle) in her arms. Some of the...

    Critique of a National Player's Swing

    Hi, I work with national softballers where i'm from and this is one of the girls I work with. Here is where she's at currently: http://youtu.be/smO-vI-PPKI If anyone's interested, this is where she was just a couple of months back. Her main coaches subscribe to the Japanese style of batting...
