Frustrated Coach


Posted by: bob kwasny (coachbobkw@aol.com) on Wed Dec 13 11:56:26 2000


I have purchased and studied the following hitting publications.
The Mike Schmdt Study ( Mike Schmdt & Rob Ellis )
Hitting with power and consistency ( Charlie Lau )
Hitting Fundamentals ( Paul Prince )
You can teach hitting ( Dusty Baker )
Teaching the mechanics of the major league swing ( Tom Emanski)
Professional Bunting Techniques ( Tom Emanski )

I have also done frame by frame video study hitting.

I have been visiting this website for over a year now and have also purchased jacks video.
i totaly agree with jacks findings and i have tried to teach them. in doing so i have eliminated the following drills and phrases. fence drill, double tee drill, lead with the knob, stay inside the ball, keep the barell above the hands, weight transfer.
since doing this my 13 yr old sons average has dropped from 400 to 360. i am now thinking about going back to my previous methods. my son is completely confused and has lost confidence in me as a coach.
i still agree with Jacks theories but obviously do not know how to teach them. I used the heavy bag drills with my son but was hesitant to do so with the whole team.
If any one can relate to my situation please feel free to respond. coachbobkw@aol.com
thanks bob
