Wow ir versus hello elbow??

[Sticks]

I'm stunned 3 years of lessons and the first I've heard of IR??? Love the bat drill, it all makes sense. Kinda noticed it in the hill house videos I've seen but just shut my ears!!

IR, is just the name that it was given on this site. I had never seen anyone pitch with the hello elbow, until I moved to AZ. I am glad that my DD was taught to pitch in Central IL. Most instructors won't know the term Internal Rotation, per se, though.

What is bat drill?

Stand in the K position "Like after toe touch in the stride" hold a bat in the pitching hand and swing the bat like you are hitting ground balls to the infield with one hand...the bat forces the arm and wrist and everything to do what it is supposed to do...

Well I live just north of central Illinois and have no one teaching this release!

Your daughter may very well be utilizing it anyway. Post some video and we will take a look. Many of the top pitchers go through IR and then force themselves into hello elbow, to satisfy the coach.
