I would like to pick up a cheap bat for winter practice and workouts.
How detrimental would it be to use a bat 1 oz heaver for workouts? Or may lighter, longer, or shorter?
Would there be any benefits?
Or should I stick to exactly the same size and weight as her game bat?
Anyone have a good drill to encourage letting the ball get deeper in the zone?
DD hits the ball out front too often. Hits great against faster than average pitchers. But not mid to slow range pitchers. If she could just adjust her timing a little.
Seen this on another board. Good stuff here. I feel like fastpitch parents need to be aware of this.

Is it a common practice for TB coaches to add players during the season?
The team has 13 now and is letting 2 more try out.
Is there ever a time where you as coaches decide this is our team for the season? Or are TB teams constantly rotating players?
Vertically the zone is from the top of the knees to the armpits. Does that mean any part of the ball that crosses the zone or does the entire ball have to be in the zone?
In other words is it like the horizontal zone or not. Where the width is 17" plus 2 times the ball diameter.
Thanks,
Tim
