DD @ Hitting Lessons

[straightleg]

Watch reverse hands swings from my daughter.
FFS mentioned swing sequence. Hips go forward hands go back / create separation like throwing. She needs that.

Bug squishing will stop when weight shift is taught.


Weight shift first / swing sequence second.


Good Luck

When her hips go forward (stride) and the hands go back (separation) that will get the bat out of her ear. At launch the top hand on the bat will be about where a ball would be if she had a ball in her hand throwing.

I think that you are on the right track. You can't begin to address everything at this age, or she will get discouraged. I will say this, if I was playing CF and I saw her come up to the plate, I would back up.

What Amy, don't tell me that your cute GD doesn't have you playing that deep already. If not, then I say double the swing reps and strength training beginning tomorrow.
