Watch as Coach Caitlin Blanchard explains and demonstrates this tire slam hitting drill. The batter should hit the tire as hard a possible, as this allows them to feel the connection and power in the lower half of the swing. Be sure to hit the inside part of the tire and not get over extended. You can hit the tire one swing at a time or do a rapid fire with multiple swings.
