BP Drill
This is the regular HURRICANE BATTING MACHINE batting practice drill. The batter assumes
a position in a location square or even with the ball component aimed directly at the batter's mid-section. The batter
will start the drill by hitting the ball. The batter will continue to hit the ball as it comes by. The batter will take time
and reset the feet and the stance each time before each swing. The batter will have to keep the eyes on the ball at all times.
When the batter hits the ball with a good hard level swing, the ball will return level and at a good speed. When the batter
mishits the ball, the ball will jitter-bug or bob up and down. When the ball is bouncing, the batter may wish to stop it and
start over. However, the batter may choose to hit the ball as it bounces. This is a difficult and challenging task, but will
quickly increase hand-eye coordination and make your player a better contact hitter.

Streak Drill
One of the most popular
HURRICANE BATTING MACHINE drills, this drill is a fun and
challenging workout. The object of the drill is to see how many times, in a row, the batter can swing and hit the ball without
missing. The batter should always hit the ball while it is moving. If the ball stops, the hitting streak ends. Two players
can compete against each other. They take turns seeing who can build the longest streak.
A swing and a miss is the end
to your streak. A foul tip keeps the streak alive. If a batter touches or stops the ball, the streak is over. The batters
should make sure to make contact with the ball component and not the shaft.
