Hi ,

You know how a golfer’s handicap gives you an objective, data-based read on how good they are?It's not, "I'm pretty good." It's "I'm a 3."

What if we had something like that for hitters?

A science-backed test using just a tee, a net and an radar gun -- and it only takes 10 minutes to do -- that tells you (and the hitter) how good they actually are and what they most need to work on.

My friend Kelly Ahrens has built exactly that.It’s called the Hitter Handicap — a 10-minute diagnostic tool that gives you a shockingly accurate read on a hitter’s ability and tells you exactly what they need to work on next. Kelly has used this tool privately for years with elite college and travel programs in both baseball and softball. Now he’s testing out a new way to teach it — and he’s offering free enrollment to his Hitter Handicap mini-course to the first 10 coaches who raise their hand.

This is for you if:

You’re a hitting coach who wants a clear, data-backed plan for helping hitters get better (if you teach lessons, the Hitter Handicap is a huge value add -- and a way to objectify your teaching); You’re a parent committed to your son or daughter’s development at the plate, and want to give them every advantage;

You’re curious how Kelly can predict the top hitter on a team before the season starts — based solely on this quick test (he'll show you the data).

All you need is a tee, net and radar gun (a Pocket Radar works great). You attend two short sessions a week apart, try the system with a few of your hitters between sessions, and give him feedback. That’s it. I encouraged Kelly to do this free version and I wouldn't send this invite to you if I didn't back it 100%. He's a close friend of mine and I've seen him do miracles with hitters at the highest -- and lowest levels.If you’re a hitting coach at any level, I highly recommend jumping in. I can assure you he will over-deliver. The only concern I have is that you won't believe how powerful of a hitting aid this protocol is and you won't give it a fair chance.
