Hitting Help

Farmer Dad10+ posts

My son will be a freshman this year and hopes to make the High School team. He has always been a consistent line drive hitter but lately he has been hitting mostly grounders or short pop ups. I think the problem is that he has started getting his hips too far ahead of his hands so he loses all his power. I would appreciate any comments on his swing and drills that I could use to get his hips and hands back in sync again.
This hit went for a double down the third base line. It was the only clip that came out clear enough to see.
