#pullhitting

We're not crazy about pull hitters here at Pitching Machine Pro who can only hit home runs by pulling the ball. Pitchers can easily recognize  these types of batters and they will pitch accordingly, keeping the ball away.

Thus my recommendation to all you pull hitters is to locate deep in the batter's box and move up toward the plate with your stance. If you're really need an inside pitch to pull, and the pitcher is pitching you away, you'll have to adjust to get that pitch location. by opening your stance a little.

This will get your hips started toward the rotation you'll need to get around and hook the ball. And then wait for your pitch that's close enough to you to enable you pull. ln other words, reduce your tunnel vision to that hitting zone where you need the pitch to enter.

These types of pull hitters will reduce that tunnel vision into a north-and-south zone. They've already adjusted for the east-west zone by moving up on the plate.

Now they're looking for something that will enter their tunnel vision in that narrow tunnel. If they don't get it, they will lay off that pitch. That north-south zone will likely be between their mid-thighs and their chest.

The next step for pull hitters in hitting a home run is to get that bat head out quicker and through the zone. To do this, you'll have to firm up that front leg much sooner.

This means, during your rotation and weight transfer. you will need to slam on the brakes sooner,as we have discussed previously.
