Hey, just thought I'd get some thoughts on what you may see compared to what I "think" I see as her Dad. Just coming back after 10 months off due to back injury (catcher). 13yrs old gonna try out for HS team in August. First time hitting with the new CFX. Had a Tuff Sleeve on for a few and then took it off...dramatic difference in ball carry. After I get a few thoughts I'll post what I see that I think I see could be an issue. Thx all...

As a complete non expert, I notice her hands get stuck and can never catch up/ get back in front. Spine angle a little too straight up. Her first move to coil/load she pushes her hand away to much and they get stuck. She looks strong and not every swing needs to be perfect. Knees look awkwardly close to each other?? Wider stance??

IMO she spins ..... needs to learn how to launch into her load, like some say, in these swings she is all unload..... no resistance.

I am interested in the thought process regarding the front foot turned to the pitcher in her stance? If it is pre-set coil then she needs hold that longer as strides out e.g what DRDRODD mentioned.
