Baseball Drills For Hitting

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

This is a great Video for new coaches coaching 12 and under.

Hard topic to teach.
To keep your body from moving forward you take a 2 - 3" Short Soft Stride with your foot keeping your weight back on the loaded leg.

When you start the swing twist your hips throwing your back hip at the ball NOT forward, the hip turns toward home plate while you throw your hands at the ball. Hit 1000s of balls off the to get your timing for starting hands and hip down. Coach John

want to see a great young player @ Aumen baseball"

All these "isolation" drills is part of the problem of baseball...there is no science to any of this. Hitting a baseball is a dynamic activity...practice slow, become slow. Listening to this guy is like listening to the old sensei talking to the young grasshopper a lot of subjective nonsense.

This is from "HITTING SECRETS, Form the Bottom to the Top, video series. With Coach Jami Isaacson. What a joke. Do your self a favor... Try Don Slought and Rightveiw Pro, Mike Epstein and Jake (Mike's son), Charly Lou and Charly Lou Jr. Hell, Though I'm not a fan of his teaching methods try Cal Ripken. Surprising in it's self, there is a reason why this guy is still at Knox College. Well meaning, but be ware!

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
