    Haley’s HLP lesson with Richard

    Online hitting gurus

    Probably maybe I guess Tewks if I absolutely had to. :(. One of the others I see likes to write articles about terms and actions we coined on dfp, but totally gets them backwards. Another came here, argued against everything, now teaches everything he argued against with the self promotional...

    Wooden Bat

    Phoenix bats makes a bat designed for girl's to practice with. It's -8 and has a small sweet spot. I think it's less than $100. We use a worth wood slowpitch bat. I think it's 34/28.
