This might have been discussed before so I apologize if it has. What are your thoughts on using a heavier bat during batting practice (machine, coach pitch, soft toss, etc.). Would this strengthen and quicken the swing or would it cause mechanics to change that would have negative influence when switching back to regular bat during game situations. I'm not talking about using a bat that is 6 ounces heavier or anything but maybe a few ounces heavier than they use normally. One of the local batting instructors that many of the kids seek out has them using the weighted donuts on bats when warming up.
I appreciate your opinions.
