Drill # 1 for bunting - Improving your hand eye coordination

When bunting, or playing baseball in general, one needs to have extremely good hand-eye coordination. For this drill, it is very simple and can be done inside. All one needs is a bat and a few ping-pong balls. Take your normal bunting stance, then have a partner toss you ping-pong balls and simply practice bunting them. The reason this drill is affective is because it makes the batter focus more on watching the ball since it is much smaller than a baseball, making it that much harder to bunt.
