What is your guys thoughts about "hitting in a phone"
Honestly, I don't see how this cue would help.
Maybe 'land on a bent front knee' would be more exact, and impossible to mis-interpret.

I was going with Superman….Wait, are you insinuating that @pattar is Dr. Who?
It was the idea to maybe get across to the player that the stride is not meant to go to the ball as in go get it, which can cause issues. Instead the stride is meant to somewhat stay where you are and put the body in position to be ready to swing when the ball gets to you.Honestly, I don't see how this cue would help.

IMO, if somebody lunges then it may be ok but if not then the result of this cue may cause a hitter to get stuck on his/her backside if one isn't careful. I agree with the bolded..It was the idea to maybe get across to the player that the stride is not meant to go to the ball as in go get it, which can cause issues.

I agree one would need to be careful. You must have some idea of what getting off the backside means in the swing. A lot of kids though if you say get off the backside, they translate that as pushing off of the back side with he rear foot and leg to go forward. When in reality you can get off the backside without moving forward as in like a no stride.IMO, if somebody lunges then it may be ok but if not then the result of this cue may cause a hitter to get stuck on his/her backside if one isn't careful.

Stride foot doesn't have to move forward but the middle should. Marcela can stride 10 different lengths and still not get the middle to move out properly..I agree one would need to be careful.

This was going to be my smart-rear response too.What's a "phone booth"?
