Bat Swing Speed Measurements Measure the Speed of the Barrel of the Bat, Out Front, in the Hitting Zone:

To measure bat speed "out front", in the hitting zone where batters are taught to hit the ball, Sport Sensors Swing Speed Radar can be positioned in front of the batter, or behind the batter. The most important consideration in using Swing Speed Radar Velocity Sensor is to position it in the plane of the swing as the bat enters the hitting zone, similarly to positioning a ball at the desired height and location on a tee.

If the batter is swinging "in air" without a ball, Sport Sensor Swing Speed Radar can be located forward about six feet in front of the hitting zone, at the height of the bat swing through the hitting zone. Swing Speed Radar can be mounted on a tripod or hung on a net or fence, using the two snaphooks provided with Sport Sensors Swing Speed Radar . The batter is now swinging toward Swingspeed Radar as though it were the ball coming from the pitcher. This is an ideal location for bat swing training.

If the batter is swinging at a ball on a tee, Swing Speed Sensor must be located behind the batter to prevent the batted ball from striking Swing Radar and/or erroneous reading caused by the unpredictable ball flight from the tee. Sport Sensors Swing Velocity Radar should be about six feet behind the tee, facing the ball on the tee and at the height of the ball. Sport must be sufficiently rearward , where a catcher would ordinarily be positioned, to prevent it from being struck with the bat. In this location, the batter is swinging away from the radar. To accomplish this positioning, Swing-Speed Radar can be mounted on a tripod, or hung on a net or fence by using the two snaphooks.
Whether Swing Speed Sport Sensors Radar is located rearward or forward, it will measure the speed of the bat barrel in the hitting zone. When determining the energy imparted to the ball, the maximum exit velocity results from the ball being struck at or near the "sweet spot" of the bat, which can be about 4" to 6" from the bat tip. Therefore bat barrel velocity is more relevant to ball exit velocity, and ball flight distance, than bat tip speed, which will be about 15%-20% faster than the "sweet-spot" velocity. Thus a 60 mph average barrel velocity will correspond to a bat tip speed of about 70 mph. However, a batter doesn't intentionally hit the ball with the bat tip-so measure bat barrel velocity with Sport Sensors Swing Speed Radar for Baseball / Softball Bat Speed .

Sport Sensors Dual Mode Swing Speed Radar with Tempo Timer - for Golf :

Sport Sensors Swing Speed Radar with Tempo Timer complements the highly successful Sport Sensors Swing Speed Radar for measuring golfers' clubhead speed and baseball /softball bat speed. Sport Sensors Dual Mode Swing Speed Radar with Tempo Timer for golfers is two devices in one. Sport Sensors Swing Speed Tempo Time Radar lets you measure your Actual Swing Tempo, from takeaway to ball impact, and your Clubhead Speed. Use Tempo Time Swing Speed Radar Velocity Sensor on the driving range, during practice rounds, or in your backyard to achieve your best distance, control, and accuracy.

Golfers need to determine the tempo time that best suits their swing rhythm. John Novosel, in his best selling new book "Tour Tempo", points out that most Pro Tour Golfers have tempo times within the range of 0.9 to 1.3 seconds. Ben Jackson, Owner and Head Instructor at the New England Golf Academy, emphasizes the trend for the new, young Tour Pros of today is for faster tempo times. In Ben's words, "Speed is the new frontier!" (Tempo time and swing speed!) Check out your tempo time and swing speed with Sport Sensors Swing Speed Tempo Timer Radar and see where you fit in!!
