Rotational Hitting Mechanics vs Linear Hitting Mechanics - Do they both work in Fastpitch Softball?01/15/2011 In order to understand our fastpitch softball swing we really need to understand what the pitcher is trying to do. This is Part One of our 2011 journey through the maze of Fastpitch Softball Hitting Instruction. Before we tell you (supply your own air quotes here) "what technique" you should use, be it rotational or linear hitter we need to put you in the head of a pitcher. Why? Because good fastpitch pitchers stop the very best fastpitch softball hitters 60 to 70% of the time, regardless of your swing technique.
