Switch Hitting

Posted by: MissouriDad (zach3737@aol.com) on Wed Dec 22 19:50:39 1999

Any one who has experience with someone becoming a switch hitter after the age of 14 please help.
How long did it take? How many reps? Did you ever get fully confident (pressure situations I mean)? Did you need a ton of actual game at bats or did game experience from one side speed up the new sides progress? Did your non dominant hand get as strong as the other? As coordinated? Or was it just hitting specific skill it learned?
