Review on Enhance Strength with SKLZ Power Stick Baseball and Softball Training Bat by Marc Hawkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Simplify pre-game warm-up with SKLZ sticks.

This racquet will help our kids to exercise their eyesight before the game and develop the speed of the stroke. If you can hit the little wiffle balls with this racket before the game, you're in good hands. Also, it builds trust as they understand you are making eye contact. Many companies are trying to copy SKLZ tools and yes these fake products are cheaper but the quality is not what SKLZ offers. You can save $5 to $15, but it won't last a season and suddenly the extra money saved in the first place doesn't make any sense. I trust this company and they are constantly developing new learning tools. I feel good about telling my closest family and friends about purchasing the SKLZ brand; and I would not have taken the time to write a review if I had not believed in the results this power stick would bring. It's a shame I didn't find these products sooner as they have made preparing for gaming easier, more efficient and even more fun. Children naturally get nervous before playing. This tool gives them confidence when they need it most (pre-game). Also, players don't mind if they miss the ball, as small balls seem difficult to hit with a racquet. Players feel embarrassed when they concede the ball and it lowers their confidence. This is the last thing you want to do before playing. This removes that potential danger from foreplay while you build confidence through more challenging activities. This tool combined with small balls allows the player to relax and not be afraid to miss the ball as it should be difficult. Once a player learns to hit small balls with the Power Stick, they are ready to mentally and physically beat the game. Since implementing this simple system, our player averages have skyrocketed. The weekend before we had SKLZ sticks, our team scored a total of 7 goals in four games. We brought SKLZ clubs into our pre-game over the weekend, our team hit 37 in our first two pool games! Each player started with an SKLZ racquet and small SKLZ balls. After they successfully hit ten small balls with the SKLZ racquet, we asked them to go to the next station where they used their real racquet and hit the real balls into the net. , the body and especially the eyes are set to "Game Mode". We've had a few parents bring in fakes as soon as we incorporated them into our routine. You have to be careful as they are unweighted and not intended to help your player. Fakes can do more harm than good as they are mis-weighed and dent very easily. We didn't allow our players to use anything other than the trusted SKLZ brand after noticing the difference between fake and real SKLZ tools. Fake balls break because they're cheap and downright annoying because they don't work pre-game when you need your player(s) to warm up. For players using the SKLZ stick, they were left with no choice but to focus on connecting the power stick to the small SKLZ balls. Again, I would like to know about these racquets from day one as they are the easiest way to warm up your racquets. They don't need much space and their eyes are ready to hit any ball after ten such successful hits. Once your players are confident they can hit a golfball-sized ball, they'll feel confident stepping onto the field. and watch the baseball/softball connect to its bat. Those of you who have younger siblings can also use them from a very young age. If you want your child to start developing hand-eye coordination around the age of 3 or 4, they will have no problem with this lightweight stick. Salespeople with this stick bring success to the plate. I am not a paid representative for these products. I bought all the equipment. This is something that can make a big difference.
