Thought a kids description might help someone.Yesterday my son and I went to the field for some practice as usual.We go to undo what has happened at HS practice. Their practice consisted of trying to hit off apitching machine set at 85 mph from 40ft.Why Idon't know.Any way we were hitting afew more foul balls and grounders with topspin than usual not drastic but a little off.What was happening I would describe as (casting or out and around or arms extended to early).We got back on track and started hitting real well again and I asked what fixed your swing? All his answer was I quit reaching for the ball. Thought coming from a 14YO view this might help someone else struggling with this.
