ABSTRACT:
The batting practice aid includes a single handle, which is sized to be grasped by a single hand of a user, is connected to one end of an impact absorbing line having a soft rubber ball connected to its other end. The line is resistably stretchable along its entire length to permit it to absorb sudden tension forces suddenly applied to the line, wherein the resistance to stretching of the line increases as the amount of stretch of the line increases. The ball is rotated in a circular pattern about the handle by the user. The ball is spaced apart from the handle by a critical safe distance of between about six feet and about 111/2 feet to enable the aid to be used in a safe and yet controlled manner according to the inventive method.
