Did you learn something new about soft toss and how to use it to make big improvements? Let me know what you learned in the comments, I'd love to hear from you!
Great video :) I was thinking Soft toss was annoying for kids and a waste of time for their improvement ... but the perspective and the drill you mention changed my mind 100% about it! Thanks Coach ;)
Sure thing, glad you found it helpful! I've always believed soft toss to be a crucial part in the progression of a young hitter's development (tee, soft toss, underhand front toss, overhand batting practice).. but the soft toss is only as good as the partner throwing it! Lol
Yes, depending on what drill I’m doing. Normally I change my angle and positioning rather than distance. Moving further away I feel doesn’t do much, but having the ball come in from different angles helps improve hand-eye coordination. Also using different tosses like I did for the fastball / change up drill and the inside / outside location. Hope this helps!
