Pulling the ball and pulling off the ball


Posted by: Mick (whitelion_01@hotmail.com) on Mon Jun 5 09:15:30 2006


I have good rotational mechanics, but not great mechanics. I hit the ball harder / farther then 95% of players.

Unfortunately, I do have two problems. The first has to do with pulling the ball with power. My power is from LC-RC and rapidly fades the more I try to pull it. On an outside pitch, I can definitely hit the ball harder down the opposite line then pulling an inside pitch down the line.

The 2nd problem is that I am always pulling off the ball. I tend to hit farther twoards the end of the bat off the sweet spot. I've very consistant as I'll hit a spot 3.5-4 inches off the end of bat. I've tried a lot of things in BP and off a tee and it isn't working.

I think both of these problems are likely related, but for the life of me I don't know what it is. The few coaches that I've talked to and other players that watched me hit tell me that I have a great swing and they have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I hope someone here has encountered the same issues and can help me out.

Thanks

Mick
