Top handed drills are difficult to do correctly. They can be pushy. I like sjay_27's one handed swing, kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZ7UiJqbrqitZsUsi=ZHMuUoWfxanBZnkj

Hey man, I want you to know, this clip was a major lightbulb for my daughter, adjusting to 43ft, struggling to stay balanced and on time. She took this immediately to the field. I’m fired up that she’s fired up. Had to share, cheers

Rhythm and flow through the ball 👌🏼 well demonstrated, Matt. Simple and impactful. My two realized real quick when they use this footwork, it results in jogging off the field getting love from their coaches and teammates 🤙🏼

Matt this is exactly my issue, and it's so frustrating. No matter what I do, even when trying to point the knob at the Catcher as soon as I stride forwards, my whole body wants to go with it rather than staying back. 😢

Would this swing work for Slopitch as well? I've been having trouble coming out of my stance during my stride, as you say standing up. Thanks.

Hey Matt what kind of tees do you recommend for home practice?
@brianriggin45602 ай бұрын
I like to use a 1st to 3rd trap bunt defense, for those aggressive coaches in a younger leagues. When your outfielders don't as deep. I use my Left fielder to cover 3rd. I appears as the base is open because my 3rd baseman isnt recovering, so its a visual que for an automatic runner advance for runners and coaches. Everyones suprised when there is fielder that snuck in to catch that runner by a mile. After that the jigs up. It only works once a game, or until you been scouted by other teams.

do these mechanics also apply to slow pitch softball? I assume they do but I see people crush it using all kinds of swings and not sure. I just want to hit a home run over the fence at least once in my life. I see so many conflicting tips. You're makes the most sense as far as power generation. Ive heard some coaches say you get nothing from your top hand, but practicing your technique, it seems i get more out of the top when i get hand up, palm down and some torque with my hips. I like your rubber band and whip metaphors. I threw shot put in HS and using the glide i always thought it was like using a whip and the crack is the moment the shot left my hand.

Matt knows way more than me, but I’ve always taught my guys to get a comfortable back foot and adjust with their front foot. This would be like hitting on ice skates

You don't actually lift your back leg in a game... this is a drill to teach rear leg loading/coiling.

Awesome advice, I've played softball for 3 years ago and I'm getting back into it and I've practiced and practiced ( obviously taking needed breaks , doing meditation, and working out) And making awesome friends and being an awesome teammate we play independent softball and casual softball just to unwind I absolutely love softball it's an amazing sport.

I have watched 69 of the videos before this video in the playlist, and yet I never understood that maybe I wasn't keeping the tension well so that I had to shift then swing. This is opening up a little bit to what my batting is actually like. Thanks

@jasontackett63964 ай бұрын
You gotta have great timing to have an elite swing like this.. pitchers will chew you up with rise balls if you can't attack that pitch. This is why at youth levels we teach top half of the ball short and sweet.. gotta have a good contact swing before you get to this. Imo at least. Been coaching for 12 yrs. And I don't teach this to all hitters. Only the ones who have established good timing habits
