Fence Drill begins with the nod of the bat on the batter’s abdomen, straight out towards the fence. That is the starting position. He brings the bat back up into his regular hitting position and he is going to go through his swing using the fence as a barrier out front. These allows him to work on a proper sequence of the swing and with the proper sequence of the swing, he is allowed to swing the bat, keep his hands inside and swing properly.
If his swing was to get out of sequence. In other words, if his upper body would go first before his hips would rotate. Then he would made contact with the fence. When the swing gets out sequence and the hitter leaves with shoulders or his hands first, then he would made contact with the fence.
It is a very good drill to work on the sequence of the swing. Where upon front foot contact, the back heel comes up, the hips begin to rotate, then the upper body and last of all the bat.
With the left hand hitter, the drill is exactly the same. The batter starts with the bat at the back and straight abdomen. The end of the bat against the screen. The hips clear the way through the hands to come in close to the body, thus giving us a short quick swing.
A progressive variation of this drill, would be to combine the fence drill with the front toss to you. It is recommended that a hitter would do 25 repetitions in once practice session.
