ABSTRACT:
Batting training apparatus which includes a base member, a support attached to the base in a generally vertical orientation, with a ball support cupped tee formed at the top thereof. The support is preferably formed of two or more portions, at least the upper ball support portion of which flexes upon impact of a bat with the ball supported thereon. Mounted on the support in proximity to the ball support end is a generally planar member, preferably in the form of a disc, which is adjustable relative to the ball and lies in a plane generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the support, that is, horizontal to the ground. In use, with a ball mounted on the support, and with the planar member properly adjusted relative to the ball, the operator, on swinging at the ball, will be able to see and feel if the swing impacts with the planar member or not, and be able to determine whether, upon impact with the planar member, if the impact was occasioned by an up swing or a down swing.
