If you figure it out, let me know
I've pretty much stopped looking at my DD's tee swing mechanics and if we actually do tee work we just do it for a warmup.
Her posture at contact is similar to Marcela's. She isn't striding out correctly e.g. she is reaching some with the front leg. I would say I can help you with that..but at the moment I cannot Depending on the day, the pitcher, whether it is a game or BP and what time high tide is, Marcela's stride out will change.I dont know if I'll ever figure it out either LOL She told me that when the ball is moving, she feels like she has to change her posture to match the ball.

Agree on both accounts.My observations to why they reach more during live pitching, 1 - timing. 2 - is that it has to do with how they coil during their stride will determine whether they reach or not.

I use tee for warm up and never leave it in the same position more than 2 swings. Position tee high, low, inside, outside, way out in front, etc. Then move on to front toss 5 pitch rounds never throwing more than 2 strike in a row. I finish batting sessions with me doing full windmill pitching from 40 feet. I am a fan of daily hitting 20 to 25mins instead of 2 days of 1 hr sessions. Skill training is best done fresh, rested and short burst daily. Make training random rather than setting tee up in middle of plate waist high.
She may not be an instant hitting pro but she's a smart kid to describe what she's doing like that That's exactly what she's doing.I dont know if I'll ever figure it out either LOL She told me that when the ball is moving, she feels like she has to change her posture to match the ball.
You have mistaken me for somebody else..I never do thatClemenslee1, keep at it, don't show your day-to-day frustration to her and you are doing her a great service (you too Pattar lol).
Positive thoughts for the day
