    Poor balance? Swing issue?

    Hands seem the same to me at the start.

    She knows what we are looking for but it just doesn't happen at full speed. I guess we will just keep working on the her coil and step and hope it happens eventually.

    Poor balance? Swing issue?

    So why do some hitting coaches even at the University have them fire their hips through and say to let the hands come along for the ride? Girls were even doing this and hitting the ball of the tee with their eyes closed. Trusting the hands was repeated over and over.

    No progress with hands moving sooner but did work on the touch touch.

    Ok, thanks. That was created working on the separation issue. She has always been good at not leading with her elbow but I do realize we need to get this hand thing working soon. P.S. My daughter thinks she guys are awesome for all your help even when her dad doesn't understand it all the time.

    She did have the barrel turning at one point but when working here on the coil, and separation, and timing of the separation we lost that part. Didn't think we had a bat drag issue in ages. Is her separation and the timing better at least?

    Well that's no fun. :( I think I have seen it in some swings. She did some slow swings with my heavy baseball bat to feel the barrel. Maybe she is just extending better. Back to the drawing board.

    OK, we finally had a chance to get back to work. She has the start of a coil with her right hip and finally is feeling the barrel and it dropping in. Also need to work on walking away from the bat thing.

    Thanks that will give us something specific we can work on. I did notice her grip was changing a bit. Not sure I'm a believer in the knocking knuckles thing as most great hitters don't do that but her could certainly use some adjustment. Thank you again.

    Still stepping a out a smidgen and the separation thing still a work in progress but making profess on releasing the bat. Last swim meet tomorrow and back to full time swing work.

    Something seems different. Been wrapped up with swim meets every day. Hopefully we can get back to business by Monday.

    Poor balance? Swing issue?

    Again thank you for everyones input, we really appreciate it. She usually picks up things pretty quick but coaching she received told her lots of things that keep her from doing what apparently she needs to do. A big one was it's all the hips and the hands are along for the ride. Her stretch has...

    Definitely on overload but just trying to get a plan together. Did very well in All Stars and starting Middle School ball now. She one of only a few who could hit the fast pitching. I'm can't wait to see when it finally clicks. Clearly she is losing a lot of power without that full release...
