Hip hinge and shoulder plane are something that all great hitters do really well. In this drill, I'm going to teach you how to do both of those, especially for younger hitters, with a drill I like to call the Airplane drill.
In this drill, we're going to have our hitters set up and they're going to keep their arms all the way out, straight out the whole time. Don't bend your elbows. You can start out doing it in slow motion from launch position and then progress faster without pausing. So in this drill, the hitter is going to take their top hand to the tee with this drill focusing on hip hinge Side Bend and shoulder plane to get to this pitch. You can notice that our hitter does a really good job of shoulder plane here to get to this low pitch.
You can change the tee height to work on different pitch locations, and you can see as the pitch progresses up his shoulder plane is a little bit less. So now I'm going to have the hitter finish their swing all the way through at each level as well, starting out with low. Perfect and then we'll do one more a little bit higher. As the hitters progresses, they can stop at contact in their first time. And as they get better and progressed further, they can go all the way through their swing.

Everything you need to know about The Hitting Vault, billing, and plan info. If you can’t find the answer your looking for, just reach out to our team.
The Hitting Vault is an elite hitting program taught by Professional Hitting Coach Matt Lisle. Many MLB, collegiate and youth players have trusted Coach Lisle to perfect their swing and he’s putting all of his principles, tips, drills and curriculum in one place, The Hitting Vault, and made them available for baseball and softball players at every level.
In one word, experience. Coach Lisle has created, studied, and developed this collection of drills because he knows first hand they they can turn a good hitter into a great hitter. The drills are smart and intuitive. Lisle goes in-depth on the philosophy and goals of each drill without being long or boring. This is the exact program that he teaches his MLB clients, but the drills are explained so they make sense to every level of hitter. Coach Lisle teaches these elite body movements and when an athlete repeats these movements, they are learning all the things necessary to reach your goals as a hitter.
This may be a surprise to some readers, but the path to learn and develop a powerful swing in baseball and softball are identical. Of course there is a difference in the approach in the batters box, situational hitting and pitch recognition. But, the way The Hitting Vault looks at it; an elite swing is an elite swing. The Hitting Vault gives equal time to both types of athletes. Nearly every drill in The Hitting Vault is demonstrated with a professional baseball and professional softball player.
