Front foot on toes

Posted by: Keith () on Sat Jan 26 09:15:25 2002

Is it better to have your front foot on your toes or the ball of your foot. I've swung a bat doing this lately and when my feet are flat on the ground my swing is more level and a little more compact. When i swing with my front foot on the ball of my foot and stride, my hips turn more and my batspeed seems the littlest bit quicker. But also with this my swing isn't as level and compact, and i'm afriad of losing my balance a little. Which one would u reccomend.
