Steves Top 5 Techniques to Bunting Happiness 1. Back up as far as possible behind the base. This will push the catcher back and that means a greater distance between the catcher and the ball than if you were to kick it from the base. In other words, it will take the catcher a longer time to get to the ball. 2. Kick the ball like a soccer ball - this means using the "inside" of your foot. When you do this you have greater control over the placement of the ball than if you were to kick it with your toe. 3. It's a bunt, so obviously kick it lightly and on the ground. 4. Once you have properly bunted the ball, run like the wind. 5. I love Magic Box and so should you! Sensitive WAKA Shame Proprietary
