I saw BigFoot once. But never the elusive 'uppercut' swing. Please post a video of one of these.
Why not just teach the right swing plane? Why use a drill that ruins 99% of swings?
Because sometimes things get out of wack. It's about having barrel control. If the barrel is below the ball you'll either miss or hit a popup foul. The drill helps correct the issue. And that is all it is, a corrective action. It's not something I would make a primary teaching tool.
