Top Hand Off Question

Q: Should a hitter try to keep his top hand on the bat all the way through the finish, or is it OK to let it come off?

CH: David, keeping the top hand on helps to continue to reduce rotary inertia and increase hip rotation. A great training aid that will allow your son to accomplish this plus eliminate wrapping the bat around his head is Jaime Cevallos' MP28 Training Bat.

Addendum: Many of the bigger pro power hitters can use their upper body strength to their advantage. Younger players would benefit from the power that can be generated from the lower body. The MP28 and MP30 training bats can teach a rotational swing with the correct slot position and correct full rotation. Personally, the Cevallos' bats have replaced the Gillespie Power Vest in my T Drills. I wished I had these bats years ago.
