Looks like he's going to get the fat part of the bat on that pitch in the first pic. Although he needs to be looking directly at the ball if he wants this to be repeatable.

Not bragging , but I was a real good hitter in little league and always watched the ball until it hit the bat. If you do that and have decent hand-eye coordination, you are going to hit the ball hard.

These are really nice shots lowkick. You should be proud, he looks like a go getter. I especially like the last one the EYES so focused you can tell he is really into it. Please post more when you can. I think we all love shots of the little ones. Thanks and BE SAFE!

Great shots! Love the facial expression. My 12-year old grandson has his tongue sticking out the side of his mouth in almost every baseball 'action' shot I have of him. I told his mom that one day he's going to bite the heck out it. Seems to be a concentration thing.

Actually, he hits the ball consistently, and he hits it hard. He has been told to watch the ball as it actually hits the bat. We even have asked him to show us where the ball hits the bat in practice. In this photo, the ball has left the fat part of the bat after contact and he is trying to pick up where it's going, which is why his eyes are looking outward. He has a good, level swing and he has power (for a 7 year old) because he has been trained by his father, who was trained as a kid by me. I used to teach hitting to youngsters, passing on the the training I had from from really good hitting coaches over the years of my youth.
