What are your tips for getting used to a bat you can hardly control?
Are there any specific drills, or just raw practice?

Hi Leeman,

Play slowly with it to start with.  Do a lot of consistency training, getting the ball on the table is the key.  As you start to feel the speed of the bat you can increase the speed of your stroke.

If this doesn't work, go back to a slower bat and keep this one for later when you develop more.
