LOW OUTSIDE TEE




This drill will make players aware of the clubhead's position and the importance of keeping your eyes on the ball.

Simply use a tee and a youth bat, about 28 inches long. Set the tee like a low outside pitch and have the players hit a ball off it. This should be done at first with large groups because everybody will get a good laugh to see their teammates swing wildly in the air. After a while they learn to aim the clubhead at the ball instead of merely swinging the bat through the strike zone.
