Hitting Drill Library

Free, step-by-step hitting drills for baseball and softball, organized by the six swing mechanics RipIQ analyzes. New drills added regularly.

Bat Path & Swing Plane

The Fence Drill

Fix casting and a long swing by removing the room a cast needs. The classic bat path fix.

The Towel Drill

A towel under the lead armpit tells you instantly whether your arms and body are working together.

Hip Rotation

The classic first lesson in hip rotation for young hitters, and when to graduate past it.

Beginner · Youth

Hip-Shoulder Separation

Fire the hips while the shoulders wait. The stretch that separates fast swings from strong-looking ones.

Load & Stride

The No-Stride Drill

Remove the stride to isolate weight transfer, balance, and timing. A two-strike weapon too.

Contact Point

Move contact to where power lives: out in front of the front foot, with full extension through the ball.

Stop guessing which drill you need.

Record one swing and RipIQ scores all six mechanics, then prescribes the exact drills for your weakest ones. Every drill here lives in the app with your personal coaching.
