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" so he can reach across.... It's a blast, but we hope to get some time on his '69 Nova soon....
