  • I dont car how a guy swings theres a million different swings the player with the second most hits in baseball didn't even have both hands touching I like the drills though very interesting

  • swing strengthener. com

  • wow, ur good at explaing things Coach Buford

  • why not show the actual drill in action?

  • man you guys are such losers. if you know allll about baseball you would clearly know that there are about 100 ways to hit the ball. and you pick the one that fits your catagory. not listen to every youtube video. just join the U.S baseball acadamy and youll know.

  • This guy is a joke. You never wanna make initial contact with the baseball on your back hip. you lose so much power. You wanna catch everything out in front of the plate. And you also wanna keep your weight back and have proper weight transfer. Without proper weight transfer, you'll be an awful hitter. If you watch a major league baseball player swing, all of them have excellent weight transfer. Which is why they are playing major league baseball and this guy is coaching college ball.

  • if u keep ur wait back. how do you get any power? you have to transfer yur weight at the right time

  • @RWDSJ torque. you must go backward to go forward

  • want to see a great young player @ Aumen baseball"

  • i just got my chatcam working!!!  msn me jane22fall 0

  • nom nom nom!!!!! hehekekeke I feel like cybering! V

  • term my high school coach used is "streach the rubber band" cuz if your forward and you get a curve, your scrwewed. if you keep your weight back more then you get a bit (not much) more time to c it, then EXPLODE when you swing

  • basically he said keep ur weight back..

  • this guy is explaining this problem horribly. He s basically trying to say to keep ur weight back. i dont think hes saying not to throw ur hips, becuase if he is...then hes wrong

  • he's basically teaching to keep your swing balances and don't transfer your weight to your front side too early... good advice and good drills to reinforce that aspect

  • This guys teaches against what some of the best hitters in the world do.... Hip Slide is important to driving the ball with power!!!

  • i like keeping my wieght back in order to thrust it forward idk

  • apperantly u dont know hitting

  • could someone please look at my hitting vids, i really need some help in finding out what im doing wrong wit my swing!

  • Thanks , good job of describing a popular problem with kids .

  • About 3 years ago a coach I had noticed I was having this problem, it was a combination of that and my stride I took was too long (I guess they can go hand in hand though) anyway what helped me was taking a stace wide enough that I didnt stride at all, instead I got a leg kick going (think A rod, man ram, etc) and then I was creaming the ball again, so the wider stance defintely helps with the hip turn dilemma

  • Be careful with your instruction there. Make sure you specify that hip slide should not occur BEYOND the front foot. You cannot eliminate "hip-slide" completely because "hip-slide" is actually weight transfer. And if I'm wrong, then so are Manny Ramirez, Chase Utley, Justin Upton and alot of other pros.
