We’ve developed the most revolutionary hitting training aid through the use of physics. Placing the weight on the knob end of the baseball bat or softball bat allows the bat to get to the proper swing path early on. This hitting aid increases your angular velocity (and angular momentum) as the barrel whips through the swing zone.

Studies show that adding weight like a donut or a sleeve to the barrel of a bat not only decreases the hitter’s bat speed once the weight is removed but also creates casting in the player’s swing.

The solution is to add weight to the knob of the bat rather than the barrel, as this decreases the moment of inertia and increases bat speed.

By adding weight to the knob, it trains the batter to swing the knob of the bat, not the barrel, keeping the hitter’s hands inside the baseball or softball. This allows the barrel of the bat to get on the correct path early on and stay in the zone throughout the swing, creating a whip-like motion with the barrel.

The Hitting Knob benefits players of all ages and playing levels both in baseball and softball. This tool can help develop proper swing mechanics for any player, no matter the level they’re at. While using The Hitting Knob, your bat speed and power will increase in no time. The specially designed attachment specifically trains the batter to swing the knob of the bat and keep their hands inside the ball, creating a whip-like motion in your swing.
