We have recorded BP efficiency and found the following results: Pops, chops, routine ground balls, and with every pitch, they try to slam it.
The going rate of hard hits is 3 or 4 out of 10.
It is important that hitters take BP at a comfort level.
However, it is good to finish with what we call a "Power-10" focusing on hitting the ball hard with super contact every time.
Here are the guide lines: A hitter may choose which pitches to hit.

Scoring: Hard Hit = 1 point Week hit = 0 points Swing and miss/foul/strike = -1 A hitter strives for at least 7 out of 10...
(70%).
That is the minimum that we strive for.
If a hitter is not at that level, he needs to work for that.
In our general research, we have found that by making hitters do a Power-10 in their batting practice baseball hitting drills, hitters will strive to hit each ball well, and batting practice will be more meaningful.
Players who do their Power-10 at the completion of BP have these results in their regular batting: Efficiency at least 80%:Batting average over .
