Focus
Keeping Hands Inside the BallExecution
Place a small, soft ball in the hitter’s back armpit. The hitter must keep the ball in place during the load and the start of the swing. The ball should only fall out as the hands extend towards the contact point. This drill forces the back elbow to stay connected to the body, preventing 'casting'.
Focus
Flattening Bat PathExecution
Set a tee at the top of the strike zone. The objective is to hit a line drive without chopping down. This forces the hitter to get the barrel on plane behind the ball and swing on a flatter plane, correcting a steep or downward attack angle.
Focus
Front Leg Stability & Rotational ForceExecution
Start in your normal stance. Step your front foot back to meet your back foot, then immediately stride forward and swing. This exaggerates the weight shift and forces the hitter to land on a stable, firm front leg to effectively transfer energy and maintain balance.
