Baseball man...hitting a baseball coming at 85-95 MPH and curving is the hardest thing to do for any man/woman or any size/shape. Football isn't what anyone would call a "skill" sport. Hockey is second no question, the speed and agility required on skates is amazing- after Baseball and Hockey I'd say Golf.
Mofo is that you? They gave you the answer. It is baseball. This is why it takes the minor leagues to prepare a guy to play in the show. Seldom can a kid come from college or high school and play major leagues. Other sports happens all the time. End of thread, Mofo!!
Not technically a "sport", but throwing javelin for track and field takes a shtload of skill.
Fun fact- Breaux Greer, the American record holder, had a 90+ mph fastball in high school, but decided to go "professional" for javelin instead because pitchers are a dime a dozen, and he wanted to try something harder
Hockey's up there for me....but BASEBALL is the top...162 games a year not including spring training and postseason...turning a double play that starts from point A to point B to Point C in an average 3 to 4 seconds takes an extreme amount of skill. Hitting takes an insane amount of skill to recognize curve from fastball...fastball to changeup....I mean you literally have a half a second to react if that. and while players do sit and wait there turn to bat or pitch or whatever....we are talking about 3 quarters of the year is the baseball season as opposed to any other of these sports....with one day off every 2 weeks during the regular season...its insane
Having played hockey, baseball, and soccer.. I would have to say overall hockey requires the most skill cuz ppl don't understand the split second desicions that have to be made at speeds over 20mph..
But I have to say, hitting any type of baseball is the HARDEST individual skill in all of sports
