I bet those of you who have played baseball, including myself, have dreamed of hitting a home-run like the major leaguers do. Even though you’ve watched their swing and imitated them and have the perfect setup and swing, it still didn’t happen. Why didn’t I hit a homer you asked? Well, there might be some key features in their swing you might not have noticed.
The main component you might have been missing is the bat speed and angle of launch that the pros have. These two component are the most important factors when it comes to hitting home-runs. With these to component matched up perfectly it becomes much easier to hit a homer.
Some more component that help pros hit more home-runs than the average player are that they practice their mechanics everyday until they are so fine tuned that their swing becomes second nature, along with the fact that in the pros, hitters swing speed are faster which allows them to have more decision time.
In conclusion there are a lot more involved in hitting a homer that just copying the swing of a pro baseball player. It more complicated and takes practice.
