fastpitch softball bunterHot bats are great to have, but some days, they just aren't working. It's always nice to have other weapons in your arsenal and bunting is something that can give you more options to help manufacture runs.

Here are 11 different ways you can use bunts:

1. Sacrifice Bunt
2. Quick Bunt
3. Push Bunt
4. Sac and Run
5. Quick and Run
6. Push and Run
7. Fake Sac
8. Fake Quick
9. Fake Sac and Run
10. Fake Quick and Run
11. Squeeze

Don't forget though that these things take practice. You can't just expect your players to execute these plays without practice. :) Bunting seems simple enough (actually it IS simple), but you may be surprised at how many players aren't very good at it. It's definitely something you need to devote practice time to if you want to be able to utilize it in game situations.
