Steve, I really am a nice guy....just wanted to get the point that this is a thread to help a dad, not talk about you. If you have GOOD advice for the girl...have at it. If you want to stroke your ego or debate that there should be a difference between a fast pitch swing and a high level baseball swing, then start a new thread. I played several years of men's fast pitch and still play baseball, I will join you there. If you want to just talk about yourself, then start a thread on that.
Well the the photo in #152 shows that you are wrong about that. The contact point is below the ball. and in these gifs offered, including on post #146 you posted more, I no upper-cut per se through the zone. The girl in the red appears to be hitting the ball to right-center when observing her core position, shoulders, and back foot. That orientation will cause her bat to rise back to the front shoulder sooner since her extension is complete toward right-center field. so it could give that illusion after contact that she is upper-cutting, but I don't see the bat path showing a dip. None in #146 either! I think they are all very good swings. I would like to believe you are a nice guy, but you have always called me names; "stawman"? You really hurt my feelings with that one more than the others.
One more point. You question my credentials and ask me to post evidence, then you ask me not to talk about myself. So lets not talk about me on this thread and I will link photos and video in a better place. I am going to erase the Euro post I made if you don't mind. But my Nancy Evans post was relevant, because someone said you should hold your bat perfectly vertical. I didn't know Nancy personally. I did know her mom. I was there recruiting. Vertical bat in fastpitch = big mistake, and she exploited it.
