How Brave Is This Hitting Coach...?

If I had to guess it’s to help direct the ball where you want it to go? Idk.

My son does a similar drill, but coach is behind the net….

Exactly, I did many hitting drills with my son and this is just dumb for no reason. Also there is no need to do a pulling hitting drill because that comes naturally. The drill to focus on is going with the outside pitch and hitting it the other way, but behind screen.
