10yo son's swing clips...any thoughts?

He should be very successful at this age with that swing. The only thing I would suggest is to work on the off season on him not slotting his elbow first and then swinging. The hands and swing should slot the elbow to avoid bat drag. I wouldn't make a big deal out of it now, because he looks pretty darn good other than that.

Thanks for that input. I'll take a closer look at the slotting.

The main issue he is having right now is timing. He hits like mad in the cage, but then again I don't vary the pitch much. He doesn't get many good pitches to swing at during games so i like to let him get the feel of the sweet spot on the ball during practice. I know I need to change it up, but I also think the confidence he gains from making good contact with a good swing is as important as anything right now. He's hitting in games. There just not the solid contact pure drives he's hitting in the cage. I'm ok with that as long as he's having fun. When I worry about it I look at what he's facing in games. One pitch for a strike, one pitch at his head, one pitch two feet behind him, another strike if he's lucky, then one pitch that bounces in the dirt five feet in front of the plate. I don't worry too much at this point. I tell him if he continues to take good swings good things will happen. He and I both believe that so that what we concentrate on.

Thanks again,

Tim
