About this title

Synopsis

There is a saying, "if it was easy, everyone would do it?" Well, that does not just talk about hitting a baseball, but the teaching of it.

One would hope that hitting a baseball, and the teaching of it was easy, but it's not. However, you can learn the hitting drills and process to deliver that elusive success. Every year of bad habits makes it harder to correct the baseball fundamentals. This step by step hitting guide will show you, the sports' parent or baseball coach, how to teach the mechanics of hitting and the mental game of hitting in a way that your child does not end up mad at you after every baseball practice. 


If you want to help your son or daughter to learn the fundamentals of hitting which will allow them to have a high batting average, grow confidence and develop power along the way, then you are in the right place. Power is useless if batters cannot square the ball up because of incorrect hitting mechanics.
