The single BEST step-by-step explanation on how to hit a softball that I've found. I've been trying to figure out why my 9 yr old continues to pull it down 3rd base line. I tried various feet positions, etc. Now I know it's her barrel leading her hands, and it makes perfect sense. I feel like an idiot for not seeing it before. Awesome video, Meg.

Knob to the pitcher can be a problem for batters that tend to be late. They have to learn to get the barrel in the zone deep. You can still let the hands lead. That’s what I’ve seen in 12u baseball at least.

Great video! I will be using your hitting points this evening with my u12 girls. I especially liked how you mentioned that we all have a different "set up" in the box, so very true. Years ago I coached a young fella in u10 baseball and he had a different set-up at the plate, it looked unorthodox but he got the job done, consistent hard contact. Years later (2019) he was drafted in the MLB, New York Yankees, Round: 3, Overall Pick: 105. Trust me it wasn't my coaching, he just has a way of hitting the ball and was very coachable. I've been playing for 38 years and this video was great, my how things have changed! Thanks for your tips!

Excellent way to teach break it all down bit by bit - lots of moving parts we forget when we've played forever - I taught an older guy that was built well but never was taught how to play sports and used the method you show - break every moving part down and go bit by bit - I literally toss the ball from a few feet away and have them just make contact and try to get them to bap the ball back to me - then I move back - eventually this guy was clobbering them over my head within about 20 minutes - easy peezy if you're patient
