Baseball/softball hitting
Is there any way to improve your aim in base or softball so you actually hit the ball most times?

keep your eye on the ball.
i know its a bit cliche but its true.
also how ever much your coach yells at you to keep your elbow up, dont listen, most rec-leage coaches dont know what theyre doing, they just spit back what there coaches told them. just stand wherever comfortable,
also you need good balance so keep your feet around shoulder width apart, if someone can tap you and you fall backwards then you dont have that good a balance.
also aways swing down at the ball not straight down lol but just dont get under it cuase youll pop out. try for line drives.
i really hope that helps, imma baseball spaz so lol

Well I've played softball for years now and I didn't start of as the best batter. You have to watch the ball very closely and plan what you're going to do before you do it. When you're on deck, find the rhythm of the pitcher, they all have them and then that will help too. I started off hitting like 20 mph balls and now I can hit up to 60-70 :] Hope I helped

OK well i have been playing softball for many years and the past year i have been saying to my self "eye on the ball" Say that you your self before you get in the box, when your there and when the pitcher is pitching. If you repeat this your bound to hit it, even if it is a pop up. Trust me! I hope you do well!

Hit-away is meant exactly for that.
you can find it at any sport stores (sports athority, Dicks, etc.) I have it and it works great!

ok, wierd but get like a surface, it doesnt have to be bouncy, and a heavy ball. so hold out the stick/racket/bat whatever, and try to bounce the ball at the tip. they should be little bounces, only a few inches high. (kind of think of this activity like tennis when you bounce it up and down with the face of a racket, but with a smaller thinner, not -as- bounch surface!) this gives you better hand eye coordination,
