Ok, so how far back from the plate should an 8 year-old stand. My son is a pretty good size 8 year old. He is using a 29-19 aluminum bat.

Well, it depends on what type of hitter he is. One "rule of thumb" is to lay the bat down with the tip touching the outside corner and place the front toe even with the knob. But it's only a starting point- you'll have to experiment.
