ABSTRACT:
A bat swing guide apparatus is described that has a horizontal guide member, an arcuate guide member and a base. The arcuate guide member may be adjusted for the height of the batter and for a left or right-handed batter. There is a vertical locking means and an arcuate locking means to lock the bat swing guide apparatus in position. The length of the tubular member of the arcuate guide member may be measured by an angle of 90 to 180 degrees and preferably the angle will be 120 degrees. The radius of the arc may vary between 30 and 45 inches. Preferably the radius will be 36 inches. The bat swing guide apparatus shape aids the batter to emulate the swing of a successful professional batter. There is a ball holding means on the horizontal member to allow the batter to strike a ball at the completion of his guide swing. The is an angular adjustment means that enables the user to set the bat swing guide apparatus at an angle to align the batter to hit, for example, ground balls, line drives and home runs.
