7 year old swing

No, I can't. Where is a gif tech when you need one?

I'm seeing the barrel being turned behind the corner. I agree a gif would be helpful.

No, I can't. Where is a gif tech when you need one? It's there though. I've begun to see common indicators of this problem.
1. No upper body load with correct barrel path.
2. Barrel drop
3. Front arm bar

If these three symptoms occur in the same swing then you have bat drag.

Are these symptoms occuring in each of her swings? Any ideas or plans of attack to correct it?

Could some one elaborate on the statement - the barrel being turned behind the corner? I am not familar with that term and dont know if thats a good or bad thing. If bad could you offer ways to fix it

Do a search for "turn the barrel" - it has been discussed at length many times. It is a good thing.

Yes, every swing. It is a sequential challenge. Currently she loads,strides,then fires hips and hands together. The correction is getting her to stride and load simultaneously to toe touch, then firing the hip,and finishing the swing.

Didnt know to revive an old thread or create a new one, but just wanted some thoughts of my now 8 year old daughters swing. Any comments good or bad would be greatly appreciated.

At 8 years old, my opinion is she is well ahead of the curve!! I wouldn't mess too much. I would move the tee back about 6 or 8 inches and see how it affects her swing. Have fun!
