Here is one of her no stride swings off live bp
@Mike-Coach Q She has a unique starting position with her feet. Is that a teaching point for you or is that her personal style and comfort? No judgement just curious to hear your thoughts.
Both swings DD is swinging with shoulder rotation not TTB. Again JMHO...which is usually wrong.
My bad...?
The work continues. Here’s an update on her BB drill. I’ve seen several improvements In her since adding this drill.
OK. I was going comment on post #326 the Bonds drill demo but didn't. But I think there are two ways to execute that drill. And since we've never seen Bonds or Yellich actually do the drill, only talk about it....

Haley does it -- and successfully executes hitting the plate and then moving the ball out further and further -- with more of a TTB/behind-and-through approach, IMO:
