Your Swinging KILLS Your Shot!

If you’re still popping up, the third fix is motion — or the lack of one. A reset isn’t a swing: the ball already has the pace it needs.
Any added swing sends it up and out. Redirect and absorb; don’t add energy.

Action items:

  • On fast balls, freeze the swing and redirect
  • Film resets — look for unnecessary swing arc
  • Cue “absorb, don’t add” in transition
