And besides, at the highest levels of play, a hitter cannot stare at the ball -he needs to see part of the ball (and part of where its going) in order to be on-time. So I hope you are not teaching hitters to watch the ball throughout its entire flight. Looking for numbers will cause bad tracking habits and actually speed up the pitch.
GD, is this from Rob Crews blog?
Nice article BUCKETDAD. It's a elegant way of saying what we teach our kids, see ball, hit ball.
Working on mechanics first just seams backwards to me. The mind controls the body, not the body the mind. I'm not a huge fan of the tee, we're not playing tee-ball and not trying to see how far we can hit a stationary object. I need mine to constantly see a moving object ( ball ) and make another moving object ( bat ) make solid contact.
Didn't know you was a no teeer too!!! Not to stir a big fuss, but do you mind me asking about TCB balls.
Thought I'd post this pic of dd and you can look at eye location. (Especially in first one.) I hope this works since I had to cut and paste it from the school website.
