D1 Virginia Tech Taps Drill: Train Your Load the Right Way

Learn from Kurt Elbin, Associate Head Coach at Virginia Tech, as he demonstrates this taps drill for hitters. This is a taps drill used off the tee to work into a better load and control how the hips move into the swing. Watch how the move stays controlled. No rushing, no drifting, just a clean gather into contact. This is the type of work that translates when you step in the box. A lot of hitters hit off a tee without intent. This is how you actually use it to train your swing. If you’re serious about getting better, start paying attention to the small details like this.
