> Sometimes wrapping the bat can give you trouble when facing the faster pitching. I don't know what level you play at now, but I'd say you most likely have trouble with anything 85 mph or up. Wrapping the bat can help make more bastspeed early, but it takes too much time to bring it throught the hitting zone. As for the pros, I can't imagine how they can wrap the bat so much and still drive the ball to all fields. They must just be blessed.


No they just know when to start the bat. Wrapping the bat isn't bad. A hitter just needs to know where their bat-head is at all times.
