Does anyone else have a dd who is almost purely an instinct hitter. If you ask my dad what she thinks about in the bateer's box she will tell you "nothing". DD is 14 and I have been trying t talk to her about the mental side of hitting for the last year but it is never a two way conversation. I had limited skills as an athlete so I depended on the mental side of sports to give me my advantage. I always think how much better my dd could be if she would apply more of the mental aspect of hitting to her game. The other night when we were driving home from her hs game we were talking about her at bats and I started talking about the mental side of hitting. She said dad if I start thinking about all that stuff it is just going to mess me up, it got me to thinking. Are some girls just wired differently? Maybe my dd would not be a better hitter if she thought more about it. She has always been a better hitter against better pitchers and her batting average with 2 strikes is the same as without 2 strikes Does anyone else have a DD like this? I am starting to wonder if my dd would not be better off if we just concentrated on her mechanics.
