New Hitting Aid

Send me one.

Email me and I'll give you my credit card.

Swingbuster,

Have you got a picture of how this device works? ...and what it does? ...exactly? The description sounds interesting but I'm a visual and need to "see" what you are talking about.

Thanks,
R.

It teaches the batter to put the hands back as you stride to balance. It will not give you the ball until the instant your front foot gets down. You cannot swing during the stride. The hips must lead the swing. Hours of practice at home with all size plastic or tennis balls. It is the backyard "basketball goal" for baseball players. I have used a less refined model for three years...this one is engineered. In simple terms you c-ock the tee , place a ball on it, take your normal stride and hit the ball as it pops up. It has an arch that prevents stepping forward( lunging) and a .10 second time delay forcing the batter to stay loaded after toe touch. It creates the proper sequence of a good swing. You can vary the ball height, change the same unit from RH to LH

This is an excellent product that should help teach coaches and players alike how a proper swing begins.......

Thanks Bluedog..

Three years in the making with help from Auburn University Industrial Design Dept. It has helped many players already. THis price will be good as a promo deal for a short time..great value. People spend so much on a new bat and don't have a good swing.

I have used swingbuster's device.It makes an excellent station for part of your hitting practice.It is very compatible with Epstein's numbers drill,for example,and while still leading with the hips, helps focus on upper body loading/avoiding the dreaded deadhands disease.

Very creative product. My 13 year olds have a hard time staying back on offspeed stuff. Wish there were a way to try one before purchasing.

It's under a $100????????????????????????

Send it in.

Take a chance.

Or, are you only going to be successful if the suns out and it doesn't rain??

Way too many expenses right now to do that.

You're buying one, have it shipped to me so I can try it then I'll send it on. After all it's less than $100.

Take a chance.

Coach W, and when you're done with it, can you send it to me to try? You have my address right? but I need a lefty version, is it adjustable?

Take a chance!

I've been in business for close to 20 years.

Of all the things I've learned one stands out. It is.....you can't make a business work with broke folk as customers.

Amen to that, Lamber!

Anybody can't afford the price needs to keep hitting badly..Excuses are for losers!

Bluedog,

Contrary to your beliefs, there are people on this planet that can't afford to spend $100, on something other than rent or food. Would they be considered losers?

You and Richard (rshard) have just topped the many ignorant remarks that you've posted in the past.

I'll go back to my corner....I just couldn't refrain from posting about your ignorance.

Be good,
David

Anybody in this baseball family that wants to see it being used....I will get a baseball buddy to post a link by Weds somewhere. If you are a serious prospect write me and I will send you a 5 minute CD explaining it and showing three kids and batting instructor ( not me ..a good one )using it. I have about 50 copies. donnybstr@aol.com

Donny

Send one to coachdubya and charge my credit card.


Dubya

If you don't like it give it away. Don't let it sit in the corner and draw dust.

$100 is no mountain for anyone. Work an exta hour or two. Sell something. Get a parttime job. Deliver pizzas for a week. Find a sucker like me. Please, stop the excuses.


Donny,

I'm serious.

Wes, I'd take him up on the offer.

Heck if you don't like it I'll help you post it on eBay. That'll net 100% profit!

I really and truly think there are people out there who do not have $100 dollars to spend on a "GIMMICK"

It is nice to see that those two "fine gentlemen" feel as they do--


Just a thought

Lamber

Why not put it on your card for anyone who wants one !!! That would truly show where your heart is and you would be helping the young hitters coming up--isnt that your goal ?

Congratulations Shard, I heard they're naming an award after you. It's the HSBBW Anything Shard Says Award, aka the HSBBW A.S.S. Award. You're the first winner!

Richard, Lamper, Rshard....whomever you are, today, the depths of your ignorance never ceases to amaze me....

"$100 is no mountain for anyone. Work an exta hour or two."

Memo to Swingbuster........you'll be hardpressed to find anyone that would spend 5-cents on any device, that has Lamber as a reference.

Richard, as I've stated before, you're what's bad about public message boards.

Have a wonderful evening...
David

Chris.....

A wonderful award, befitting a wonderful human being.

Be good........hey, call me tomorrow.

David

Thanks Lamber, but I'll buy one on my own terms.

An enterprising thought Chris, but I'd donate it to one of the leagues I work with on a regular basis so they could raffle it off to raise $ for player scholarships, new equipment, etc. My initial thought was to trial it at a couple of tournaments to gauge consumer interest.

Rat a tat tat.

Excuses have been exposed.

Glove Man,
Drop me an email or PM about how you're weekend went.

Wasn't this what I was asking for on another thread? Sure seems to be.

One of the posts reminded me of selling computers to law firms in the 80's.

"They're just gimmicks! No real attorney would ever use one. We have secretaries!!"

LOL. Anyway I just ordered one so I'll try it.

Ross.

Thanks Ross,

I saw the order come through late last night. Can't wait to see Boomer and the effect( if any ) it has on his stroke.

Definition of "gimmick".... something someone else develops that functions great that took years of work and about 150k to complete.

I will say I shifted these sites gleaning hitting information from many of you guys during the process. I , like many of you , have tons of downloads that are more important to me than any book or tape. 100 heads are better than one.

The Hibbett Sports baseball buyers loved the product and are trying it in 50 of their 400 stores next month. Hope to get my wifes' money back by 2011 . I know it is a good value compared to 31 ozs. of blow molded aluminum with fancy paint for $299....now thats a gimmick or as some call it "a bat".

Leftydad, again, excuses are for losers...........

And, for people who don't the meaning of the word "ignorant".......Like you for example....

Blewdog,

I rest my case.......no defense required.

David

leftydad

Hey stranger--how you doing?

How is the boy doing?

David--I am with you

Leftydad, you should buy a "hands back hitter".......If you did, you may learn something about hitting and me and you could hold a conversation and you may not feel so inadequate.........

Never mind.....You'd probably never figure out how to use it, anyway.......

I have found that it is those who throw the word "inadequate" around that are usually quite inadequate themselves==sort of a cover up of ones own faults

Just an observation from a lot of years on this here great earth

<Yawn.....>

TRhit, I have found that when you try to reason a thought, it is wrong.......Comes from hanging around here for awhile.......

TR....


All is good here, except I'm working 7-days a week. It's been like this since early fall. Maybe it's because I'm inadequate.....who knows.

Be good, my friend.
David

Lefty ..the only guy that could get everything done by Friday was Robinson Caruso

Swingbuster,
CD arrived today. My 5yr old watched it with me, when it was done playing she said "I want one of those!"

Good CoachW...

Maybe the Kelley Performance Group will take it on as a product.It is fun......
Here is one in action in MN

Swinbuster: A couple of questions -> Can the 'Hands Back Hitter' be adjusted for a left-handed swing? If so, is it a quick adjustment? My son is a switch hitter and I would like for him to be able to use this from both sides. If it takes too much effort to switch from right to left I am afraid one side won't get equal attention.

Can the "Stay Back Tee" be modified to use the 'Hands Back Hitter' instead of a Tee? I would like to set up a station where my son would use both at the same time.
