Very entertaining! ...now where was i?
Oh yeah, bat speed workout.
When a new student has their first workout, we record their fastest swing of the night. It usually comes at the end of the workout.
I have 3 young girls that have been to 15+ sessions,
Student A, started at 62 mph, her highest speed now is 73 mph . She's 11 yrs old.
Student B, Started at 64 mph, her highest speed now is 74 mph. She is also 11.
Student C, started at 65 mph, high of 76 mph. She's 12.
And her last 2 sessions she has used 2 55oz bats in the workout.
She has gained around 4-5 mph in pitching speed in the last month!
I truly believe in this workout!
And the kids and their Parents do too!
And C77 I have heard and know some history of the names you mentioned early.....because of my Daughter's pitching Coach, Mr. Steve Bunn.
Mr. Bunn played against most of the names you posted.
He said Ty Stofflet (Lefty Legend) was the best Pitcher he ever saw, or tried to hit against! And a little history of him. He has the fastest underhand pitch ever recorded at an astonishing 104.3 mph!
And one more bit of history........Coach Bunn is in the Indiana ASA Hall of Fame.
And I am not an expert, and will never claim to be one!
I see what the best in the world do, and try to copy it!
Again, if anyone would be interested in seeing the workout, or would like to talk further. Here's my name and #
