First Post + Swing Analysis

Do you have any:

 

1) (BEST) In game footage...?

2) (OK) Live BP footage...?

Welcome aboard!  Just a couple of quick things from me....you need to incorporate your lower half into your swing more....and...I don't see any load in your hands.

 

Like Bolts posted...maybe some live bp or game swings will show something different/better

 

At 'toe touch', your back forearm is mostly vertical.  It should be horizontal.

 

This will enable you to turn the bat head backwards sooner/faster and it will stop the occasional bat drag (hands behind the back elbow).

I think things look pretty good.  What are you trying to "fix"?

Thanks for the feedback guys! I will try to get footage of myself taking live BP sometime in the near future, and will work on utilizing my lower half more and better positioning my upper body. Any good videos of ballplayers with correct lower body mechanics?

The first thing I would work on is getting more separation from your hands to your stride.  At first it may feel weird. Just focus on keeping your hands back until your stride foot lands. Your lead arm should be across your chest (not fully straight, but close to it). From there, think "attack the inside part of the ball". There is more to work on, but I think that would be a big help and a good place to start. I hope this helps.

Weight distribution..  Finish swing on your front foot, wrong. Finish on inside of your back foot, stops the hitter from lunging.

Soft front step like stepping on egg shells, weight back. Take your hands to the ball.
