[gstylz4]

"How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball...The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can." Source: Words of Wisdom (William Safire)

how is this video gonna work for baseball...jesus people they are two different swings try a new sport maybe morons

[cincyrocked]

Argueably one of the greatest hitters of all time (hits, avg) crouched in the box completely still and was highly successfull. Interesting theory though.

I'm going to show this to the girls I coach. Because they don't seem to believe me when I tell them this stuff.

[Sammy101196]

Wow! This Guy Know's What He's Talking Abbt

[pccatcher2013]

@booterbuilder yes well, at least the ones that I have seen

[vidmmaster]

when you start the negative movement you should still be loose right and then you should be explosive when you fire the bat . Is that Right?

[JustinBieberLove120]

this helps alot thanks alot!

[hockeyriot3223]

this video helps a lot i applied it to my softball game and hit like 3 homeruns in one game!!!! ;]

[jackbomberdp]

wow- really simple great advice. 

[TN79]

loosey goosey hhahahahahaha

[hahahawoww24]

u sound like that dude on dog whisperer! coool

[jodes015]

this guy was great

[professorxox]

Geez, he has all these tips, but did not even hit a single ball!!

[scooby42556]

He is a dork but knows what he is talking about.

[originalboobfan1]

I hit as much as 3 homeruns a game and I grip the bat tight as shit with my muscles tight aswell. So i don't think this is the only way to do it. maybe in the sence of easing your mind and consentrating on the ball but i wouldn't recomend this

[eichler34]

Are you a guy with average strength? Or are you one of those guys with brute force? Maybe you are strong enough to get away with the ultra-tight grip. A-rod one time said he grips the bat so loose that a 3 year old girl could remove it from his hands. I hit about 3 HR's per year so I wouldn't know which works better.

[redstrat8]

A FOREINGER  SOFTBALL HA HA

[retardedscarded]

I strike out all the time in self team pitch softball....FML!

[Rsvideohub]

a softball swing is everything you dont want to do in baseball

[dragondack]

i am right handed. i broke a finger on my right hand and had to tape it to the middle one. unbelievable the difference in keeping my hands loose. the last three weeks of the season were my best three of the year. on my right hand i could only grip the bat with my pinky, index and thumb.

[ruukasusama1]

WTF?

Mans playing softball?

[outoftheordinary100]

my coach said touse the A-frame like they do in baseball. when i look at all the other teams that bat none of them use the A-frame. my dad says i look tense in the batters box and i dont need to be.

[countrykid4life]

i have been working on staying loose this year and its really inproved my bats..ppl this guy is good...stay loosie goosie lol

[SoftballSNJ]

soooooooo campy lol

[camouellette]

great video

[ilovesoftball23]

ok i'll try that at my game tonight.

[RAWRitsRoyal]

thank you so much, this really helped me...its so good to see a helpful video

[teddie317]

Can this work 4 baseball?

[markunit72]

@teddie317 i dont think you have time for it

[scooby42556]

@teddie317 I hate to admit this dork knows what he is talking about when it comes to swings but it is true. I consider my swing better than more than 96 percent of the people that attempt to do any type of swing. This also applies to life. be loose and dont worry about things let things come to you and then react.

[dmeyferth21]

badminton player...or even a tennis player?

[azpowerhitter]

Pvelet good point Im one of the the bigs that used to muscle it out. Im 6'5" 240lbs. then my friend who is smaller taught me how to hit with proper technique like you described. wow what a difference. now when I hit home-runs they gone. most times when i really get a hold of it I get out about 350...sometimes 400. but in truth Ive had a lot of home-runs just on good line drives.

[tgoat1988]

my friend is always telling me to stay loose. now that i know what it means, i can start hitting home runs consistantly, instead of about once every twenty at bats.

[pccatcher2013]

This the only youtube video so far that is actually good advice for softball

[booterbuilder]

@pccatcher2013 Come on, the 'only' video?

[blend1100]

'loosey goosey' lol

[BrittanyMcGee93]

lmao

[raybay30]

well done. thanks. It is simple physics: power is a function of speed. Das is alles.

[pvelvet]

You know...even though this guy is a bit goofy he has a very good point. I am 6'0" 175 lbs, long and lanky. I overpower most guys within 25 lbs of me because of what he is saying. It is all about bat speed. If you are a monster you can simply muscle it out, but I am no monster. I have a rhythmic bat movement while waiting on the pitch. Good timing, and staying loose until you are about 25% into your swing then flexing to increase the bat speed as it crosses through the contact zone.

[timsandfabsvids]

oh my god thank you i have a softball city tournament and this really helped me thank you you rock!

[RyanHillonline]

Great tips! Maybe on my video I would have hit it over if I was loosy goosie! :) Thanks for the video.
