Exercise 2 - Restrictive Half Swing
• Position yourself in a normal square stance or narrow your
stance just a little into a pitching stance.
• Grip down on the grip until the ImpactStik feels light and easy
to swing.
• Raise the ImpactStik straight up in front of you by cocking your
wrists until it is vertical.
• Maintaining the ImpactStik in this vertical position, turn your
whole body backwards into a half backswing.
• Starting with a left hip slide, swing down and through the
impact point. Make sure your swing path is inside-out. You
should follow through vigorously two to three feet beyond the
ball.
• The mechanics of the ImpactStik will cause your arms and
body to accelerate through and beyond the impact zone. It
helps you swing through the ball.
• Try to pull with your left arm and shoulder during the down
swing. Keep your right shoulder back and behind at the begin-
ning of the downswing.
• When you swing down keep your right elbow tucked tightly
against your right oblique stomach muscle.
• Push your right shoulder down and under as you pull up with
your left shoulder.
• Perform a full follow through and finish. Hold your finish posi-
tion for a few seconds.
