Improve Your Softball Swing: Stop Dips and Increase Power

Question
I play slow pitch softball and was wondering if you can give me any tips. I have some pretty good power but when I   bat I tend do dip quite often  and pop up in the infield. Any tips would be greatly appreciated

Answer
Estevan,

I am by no means a SP expert, but if you are dropping your hands (dipping?) you will loop your bat under the ball.  Try keeping your lead forearm parallel to the ground when swinging.  If you have your knuckles properly aligned the will keep your bat head below your hands.  This will help prevent you from dropping your hands.
