Hitting Drills- Train Your Swing

It doesn't matter how good you think you are, eventually the game of baseball will give you a beat down. Even the best baseball players fail in 70% of their at-bats. Baseball is a messed up game to have people believing that failing way more than they succeed means they are doing really well. With the ease at which baseball can sink into people's brains it is important to perform consistent hitting drills that will keep your swing consistent even when your confidence is shuttering.

Ahh, here is the big question, and the answers are sure to shock you with their simplicity:

1. Dry Swing- that's right, just swing the bat, practice focusing on your swing mechanics and how to hit pitches in different parts of the zone.

2. Hit off a tee- yep, another boring one (A classic though), practice putting the tee in different parts of the hitting zone.

3. Soft Toss- Get a friend or family member to sit on one knee and toss balls up to you that you hit into a net or fence.

These are simple but great hitting drills that will help you develop a consistent swing.

It wasn't that long ago that I was struggling with the consistency of my swing because I lacked the foresight to implement hitting drills into my baseball training regimen. Don't make that same mistake. I turned to ouside resources to remedy my hitting illness and it couldn't have worked out better for me.
