Abstract:
1. A batter's training device comprising a ground-engaging frame member, a pair of flexible members supported by said frame member by a spaced-apart, predetermined distance to define a predetermined swing path, said flexible members having dangling ends which define an upper boundary plane of an invisible batting target path, wherein said pair of flexible dangling members are supported from said frame member by an elongated plastic tube member whereby through repeated practice swings, a batter's head is physically trained to stay virtually still to thereby establish muscle memory of a proper swing mechanics, wherein said frame member has a base that is horseshoe-shaped and an upper frame member which is swivel-mounted on said horseshoe-shaped member so that said frame member has a fall-away safety feature such that when a top portion of the upper frame member is struck accidentally by a bat, said upper frame member will spin and the batter's training device will fall backwards.
