Base Hit Bunt Placement

• When bunting for a hit, the goal is to place the bunt perfectly between the hurry and panic zone but anywhere in the panic zone works. 

• It is okay to miss to the foul side, but you should never bunt the ball back to the pitcher when bunting for a hit.

• You can also bunt it hard past the pitcher towards the second baseman.

Right Handed Technique

• Wait until the pitcher releases the ball to make your move.

• When the pitcher releases the ball, slide your back foot underneath the center of your body.

• Move your front in and forward towards the ball.

• For a drag bunt to the 3B side, get the knob in front of your left hip to set the angle.

• For a push bunt to the 1B side, bunt the ball firmly with the barrel, but do not push at it.

Left Handed Technique

• Wait until the pitcher releases the ball to make your move.

• For a bunt to the 3B side, bring your left foot to the inside line of the batters box and in line with the first base foul line. 

• For a drag bunt to the 1B side, the foot work is the same, but get around the ball to force the ball to the right side.
