hi, about a month ago I ordered the final arc. I have been practicing the drills and my swing has improved dramatically. I was never able to hit against 90mph in the batting cages and now I'm hitting shots. In batting practice I'm constantly hitting the ball out of the park. My problem is that when it comes to game situations, I'm not swinging right. I think I a little too tense and instead of applying the normal principals, I tend to tighten up, wait too long and take a weak hack that either doesn't connect or is a popup to the pitcher. Has anyone had the same problem? If so, how did you overcome that? Thanks a lot.

Try striding earlier, before the pitch is released.
