This is what high-level hitters understand…
It’s not just about swinging hard … it’s about building a swing that translates.

We’re not guessing. We’re dialing it in.

📊 64+ EV with more still in the tank…

What we’re working on:
✔ Creating true separation (hips vs hands)
✔ Stabilizing the front side (no early drift)
✔ Loading into the back hip for real power
✔ Cleaning up attack angle for consistent barrels
✔ Turning connection into whip .. not push

Why we love using Blast Motion ⬇️
📈 Real data = real development
✔ Tracks hand speed, attack angle, connection and more
✔ Gives instant feedback every swing
✔ Turns “feel” into measurable progress
✔ Helps us adjust with purpose .. not guess

Good hitters get hits…
Elite hitters understand their swing.

And the best? They keep evolving.

Correcting Fielding Posture With a Simple String + Facemask Drill

A lot of young infielders naturally settle into the wrong fielding posture:

• Chest too high
• Butt sitting too low
• Eyes too far from the ball

When this happens, the athlete becomes upright, disconnected, and too far away from the hop.

To fix this, we used one of my favorite tools:
a string attached from the wrist to the facemask.

What This Drill Teaches

This drill forces the athlete into the correct fielding position:

• Face gets down to the level of the ball
• Butt stays higher instead of sinking into a squat
• Chest angles down, matching the hop
• Hips hinge — not drop

How the String Helps

The string gives immediate feedback:

• If the athlete stands too tall → the string pulls
• If the glove gets too far away → the string tightens
• If the butt drops too low → the face lifts away from the ball

The only way to keep the string relaxed is to:

➡ Lower the face toward the glove
➡ Keep the butt higher
➡ Stay in an athletic hinge instead of a squat

This creates the exact infield posture we want:
low eyes, high hips, and a clean line to the ball.
