Frustrated Batter

Posted by: Larry Somers (lsomers@cox.net) on Mon Sep 23 10:14:14 2002

My 13 year old son has been getting weekly private lessons at Grand Slam in this hitting technique. He has now has 3 lessons and practiced his swing every day. He is frustrated as he used to be a good hitter. In games he seems to almost always be swinging under the ball. He seems to drop the barrel of the bat more then he used to. It appears to me his swing is more like a golf club swing now. I don't know what to tell him. Any suggestions?
