any interest in a hitting guide ?
Considering offering free weekend hitting instruction once a week on either sat/sunday in Portsmouth . If there is interest I'd like to introduce local players to a hitting style that isn't broadly taught in this area. (still alot of the old "swing level" approach out there)
First , I'm not a seasoned professional. I'm not a paid instructor. What I could offer is an introduction on how to properly swing a bat to improve your ability to make contact and hit with more power.
Areas such as grip/stance/weight shift/bat angle/hand path/finish would be covered.
If a few kids are interested I'd love to share what I've learned over the years. The principles of this technique was taught to me by Howard Carrier. Widely considered one the best instructors in the world. Long time hitting coach to Crystal Bustos. They now do clinics together every winter .
PM me or post here if interested or have questions thanks MD Dan Stevenson

Re: any interest in a hitting guide ?
My daughter had her first lesson last night with Dan. It went great! He showed her a couple of new things that I think will improver her swing in less than an hour. She cant wait for her next lesson. I feel very comfortable to say that Dan is one of the more knowledgable people in the area when if comes to hitting.
Re: any interest in a hitting guide ?
Makayla had her second lesson today with Dan. Her swing is already looking better and Im sure that Dan is going to make her a better hitter in the future. Also Dan's daughter Katie stopped by the lesson and was able to demonstrate the swing Dan is teaching. If Makayla can emulate Katie's swing I will be one happy parent!! That young lady has a beautiful swing and is really knowledgable herself. Many thanks to Dan and Katie!

Re: any interest in a hitting guide ?
Flush-- pretty much the same swing , it's more of teaching a girl how to naturally swing like a guy , guys tend to have a natural high finish therefore getting to full extension , girls never get to full extension unless properly instructed . But I'm about strecthed on time comittments with girls this month. thanks
