The hitter will breakdown the swing in 3 parts creating more stability throughout the swing
1. NEGATIVE MOVEMENT (LOAD): Pinch and Stack
2. TOE TOUCH: 60% on backside /40% on frontside
3. HEEL DROP: As the front heal slams down the hitter weight distribution should be 50/50
No pinch or hinge in the load, back knee leans over back foot
Weight transfers to far forward placing too much weight in the front foot and at times the hands are brought forward, not anchored back
Back shoulder drops, front shoulder tilts
50/50 balance is not evident
Swing the knob, not the barrel
50/50 balance when positioned to launch
Bringing the force down on the heel drop
Control is maintained from the beginning to the end of the swing
Fluid tempo and solid contact made
