Default Re: Is "stance" important?

Yes, a wide stance with knees bent - very good for even weight distribution and good bat speed. I have special software on my phone so I can video him and then slow it down and analyze - his hips turn before the bat moves [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Some kids do throw very hard, so he's back in the box. He doesn't crowd the plate, but has the longest bat possible at 32&quot; so he can reach across.... It's a blast, but we hope to get some time on his '69 Nova soon....
