Use the Velocity in Machine Work

 Train your eyes to be accurate at a speed that you will never see in the game. If your machine can't go that fast then move closer to machine. Our body will naturally swing quicker when training above the swing speed. Just relax, focus and try to be quick and accurate with the barrel. Try to pull it if you can. My best player Graham Roberts does our machine at Dbat as fast as its goes. He has great top hand path and is short to the ball. He is still working on seeing the ball more out front and making contact more out front with a strong wrist at contact but it's great for a 12 year old. The ball travels longer and faster to the pull side.The perfect swing is in the pull side gap, not up the middle. We can be more accurate on the ball up because it is closer to our eyes and barrel. We have to be short to the ball to get there on time. Up are mistakes by a pitcher most of the time. Do damage on mistakes. Learn how to drive balls pull side and you can play. Learn how to hit velocity and you will never go to the plate without your confidence which is the most important thing in hitting. Train off the machine going fast, use that tool and you will see the results in the game when it counts. SEE IT UP.
