WHIFFLE BALL BAT THROWS— GREAT DRILL FOR YOUNG PLAYERS…... when working with young players at Hitters U we like to use drills with external focuses to get the players to understand & feel the proper way of moving without explaining it to them. These drills naturally get you to the place you need to be or you won’t be able to throw the whiffle bat through the middle. Fly open it will go in foul territory, have a big upper cut the bat will hit the ceiling. Hitters Universityshow more

How throwing a frisbee helps groom a proper bat... path. To throw the frisbee down the cage to the back of the net you have to have good DIRECTION & path towards the middle. If you fly open it will hit either side of the net. We want large margin of error through the middle of the field. We will be having 2 clinics in December at Hitters U!

Basketball swings Force you to be strong at contact,... and hit through the ball Great for hitters who drag their bat, that spin off baseballs, and don’t have much opposite field power (Start with a soccer ball and work your way up to a full size BBall)show more

The drop drill. Cleans up so much in the... swing. To hit the ball you must be able to launch instantly, be short & quick, & square it up on the barrel. If you can hit this, you can hit anything. Hitters Universityshow more

Everybody talks about bat path but some kids don’t... truly know or understand what it means. So this visual helps them a ton & teaches them how to create margin of error and keep going through the middle. One of my favorite drills. Hitters Universityshow more

Feel how you wanna feel, but I’ll be damned... if this is a ball!! This is one of the best hitters if not the top hitter in the country you shouldn’t have to throw the ball over the heart of the plate to get a strike out. Umpires gotta be better.show more

Defensive Disadvantage Drill In the worst case scenario you... lose the lock out and get held - how do you escape? Outside players are defensive players Inside players are starting engaged & “holding” shoulder pads Player in the middle is the rabbit they need to get to.show more

[To all players] For certain challenges, some objects need... to be destroyed to progress. If players try to investigate these objects, the button may not respond. We apologize for any inconvenience. In an upcoming update, dialogues will be added prompting players to "destroy these objects" when investigating them. Thank you for continuing to support #TRIBENINE.show more

"Great players want to be coached. It's not a... form of punishment to instill discipline, accountability, and work ethic. It's a great gift. It's the right way to develop young people." You don’t get coached because you’re bad. You get coached because you can be great.show more

"You have to tell the players the truth. If... you tell them the truth, they're going to hate you for a day. If you lie to them, they're going to hate you forever." Comfort feeds ego. Truth builds players. Average players resist truth. Elite players demand it.show more

Totally agree. We definitely should define a swing and... automating it is great. It's the actual definition that I have a question with. Personally, I think 45 degrees is too liberal (parallel to the foul line). To me, if the bat goes past parallel with the plate/breaking wrists it should be a swing (0 degrees). I'm pitcher friendly, obviously, but I don't think you should be able to hit a ball 300' with a "non swing" ! 😁show more

You get to this tee shot. Be honest, where... is your drive going? 😂 The Players Championship and TPC Sawgrass is getting a lot of attention for the new tree on hole 6. It’s a restoration of a tree from Pete Dye’s original design. Players will have to flight their drives, it will cause lots of tension and I’m guessing at least one player hits the tree! I’m on board. The players need tested and this is a unique way to do it. You wouldn’t want it all the time, but for one of golf’s biggest tests, let’s test them!show more

A lot of hitters confuse being late with letting... the ball get deep. They’re not the same thing. In this video I show it with a simple example. I toss the ball and reach way out in front of me to catch it. That’s what late looks like. The ball already beat you… now you’re chasing it with your hands. Then I toss another one and catch it slightly behind me. That’s being on time and letting the ball get deep. When you’re late, your body and barrel are reacting after the ball passes your window. You’re forced to reach, cut across it, or roll it over. When you’re on time, you can let the ball travel and still control it. Now the barrel can stay through the zone longer, and you can drive it with authority. Deep ≠ late. Good hitters aren’t reaching for the ball… they’re on time enough to let it come to them. ⚾️ Train with an expert. Not an influencer.show more

Finally have an open-side view of Andrew Fischer, where... you can see how violent the swing is. Coils his core really well, allows the bat to fly through the zone with dangerous intent. Doesn't chase, either. This ball nearly left a hole in the RF wall at 108 off the bat.show more

“If you get to Christmas with 26 points, the... pressure will be triple, the players will be thinking about the summer, the season’s gone and it will get way worse for the football club and put it at risk and that’s why I acted as I did.” - Doug King (12/11/2024) #PUSBshow more
