Hitting Tips for The New Year
Bad habits are often formed at the beginning of the season and hitters may not ever recover. Here are 5 baseball hitting tips that will help prevent bad habits from forming.
1. Do not head out to the batting cages as the way to begin preseason- practice. Trying to gain timing before the swing is refined often leads to bad habits.
2. Begin with batting tee work and short flip work with the goal of building hand strength and developing good balance. Concentrate on hitting each ball in the correct direction based on where the ball is pitched.
3. When hitter feels comfortable with their swing, begin batting practice with slow speeds and gradually work up in speed each week.
4. Film the swing as early in the season as possible and have it reviewed by a knowledgebale coach.
5. Remember, doing something correct and doing something almost correct is the difference between success and failure. Performing good baseball hitting drills early in the season will pay off all season.
