Is it realistic?

[Thomas3]

I'm 14 and i've taken an interest in switch hitting. I was just wondering if it would be unrealistic to learn to switch hit at the age I am already.

I believe you can learn just about anything if you devote enough time and energy to it.

If you're a capable hitter as is I don't see why not. But I never really tried it myself in my not-so-illustrious playing days in little league and high school so I couldn't tell you how much it'd effect your normal side swing if you tried it at this juncture.

I did turn to left handed a few times in the batting cage, but after a few ridiculously horrible swings that makes a t-baller swing look like Ken Griffey Jr's I'd just go right back.

I am incapable of swinging a bat left handed.
