Rope Bat Original Patented Swing Trainer w/ 12 Balls - Baseball & Softball

I bought the Rope Bat Swing Trainer for my 7-year-old son, who, bless his heart, could NOT swing through for the life of him. Watching him at bat was like watching someone try to swat a mosquito with a pool noodle: lots of effort, absolutely no follow-through, and everyone confused because somehow, he manges to make contact 80% of the time but could never hit past second base. Enter: The Rope Bat. This thing is basically a magical floppy bat that teaches kids how to swing. The idea is simple: if he doesn’t swing correctly, the bat whips around like a disappointed spaghetti noodle. If he DOES swing correctly, it actually hits the ball instead of gently tapping it like it’s afraid of confrontation. After a few sessions, something incredible happened, MY SON STARTED SWINGING THROUGH. Like… consistently. Like… he suddenly understood physics. Like… I nearly cried at practice but held it in because other parents were watching. The 12 soft training balls are a gift from the baseball gods. My son can miss them, smack them, or launch them into orbit, and nobody loses teeth. And the bat itself? Durable enough to survive a 7-year-old who plays baseball as if he's reenacting an action movie. Now he steps up to the plate with confidence, swings like he means it, and occasionally looks back at me like, “Did you SEE that?” Yes, child. I saw it. And so did all the other parents who now think I hired a personal hitting coach. It saved my kid’s swing, boosted his confidence, and prevented me from quietly screaming into a seat cushion at practice. 10/10 would Rope Bat again.

Great product. Role Bat helps to teach good swing mechanics

This has tremendously helped our daughter get her swing in great gear. She’s got much better confidence. You can adjust the rope bat on the handle to mimic different length bats. My kids use it for fun.

As a tool, this works really well for training. It helped my son with his swing and that would normally make this 5 stars. However, the price they are charging is outrageous. I can't imagine it cost them more than a few bucks to make these (and that's being generous). I'm surprised there aren't competitors here, but at least you can find cheap foam balls from 3rd party sellers instead of what they are trying to charge for additional balls. If you have the money and don't mind overpaying, this is a good tool to have and work with as part of your training.

Improved techniques, and cleaned up on flaws.

Rope bat is a hit with the kids. This helps them self correct without someone trying to explain what the problem is. My son started using this when he was 9. He will grab this up if he is struggling at the plate and this seems to help build his confidence. With baseball you use what works for you and this thing does the trick.

Valuable tool for training and different look drill, sponge balls are great for anywhere use.

This rope bat is awesome for tee work. It perfects the swing. If you do not swing the bat just right, you will not make contact with the ball. So far, the balls that come with it and the bat are holding up well. There are 12 foam balls that will fly if it is hit correctly! We will be buying a second rope bat so we can split the team up and work in two sections.

Awesome indoor tool for our son who plays rep baseball

Great for anyone needing to correct their swing
