    Anyone else catch the bluesnafu in the Houston/Texas elim?

    Amazingly enough, this is the only video I could find on it. Warning: Language in narration.

    Fixing the overhand throw

    Amy, Hey, if it works, it works. My 16u DD was a horrible, low elbow sidearmer when she was younger and we searched high and low for a fix. A neighbor turned us onto this: We'd chalk or tape a homeplate on the floor or ground, have my DD stand within a foot or two of it and throw a...

    Is the Miken Freak Black still a thing around here?

    **BAT is Sold** Thank you DFP'ers for giving our MFB a new good home! I have a barely used 32/22 MFB gathering dust in the garage. Could make a nice xmas gift? If anyone is still looking for these. I'll add some pictures later.

    The Packaged Deal still a decent deal?

    We have the opportunity for my 14U DD to attend a Packaged Deal pitching clinic here in the near future but I'm worried about what she'd get out of it. My main fear is we don't have any IR style coaching within at three hour driving radius of home (that I can find) and I don't want to pay...

    Ok DFP'ers, looking for a good camera/laptop bag. Who's got one?

    Thanks EcoT, already wearing out my second wagon. It's usually reserved for chairs and a cooler and sometimes a hitting net and bucket (depending on which kid I'm following at that time). Marriard: Do you like the "tri-feet" on the newer monopods? They seem like they'd be more hassle then...

    Ok DFP'ers, looking for a good camera/laptop bag. Who's got one?

    KC Peeps...what are the chances tourneys will be cancelled this weekend?

    Anyone know anything about the SE town fields of Markey, Adair & Frank White? Way things sound my kids may well end up getting a lot of pool time at the hotel.

    Join the Friday check in Club! 5/20/16

    Pitch for the Cure weekend here in Huskerland. 118 teams playing on 4 or 5 softball complexes all wearing varying shades of pink and doing a whole lotta fundraising for the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Hope the weather holds out!

    Brush Interference Tape Drill

    Wondering that myself. Maybe its two-sided tape and you get feedback from the sound of the tape sticking/un-sticking to itself?

    GoPro/LynkSpyder

    SanDisk, Lexars, Samsungs, PNYs are all good. You'll want to get 64GBs or larger if you record a lot. 32GB's if you only get a couple games/weekend. Main thing you want to look for when you buy a card is the transfer rate. 85MB/sec transfer rate minimum for recording HD. Anything lower...

    Coaching and scorekeeping

    Buckeye, Got a gopro and lynkspyder? Record on your gopro while you maintain a basic paper scorebook during the game, then later you can score the game on GC while watching the film at your leisure. I do this a lot just to make sure I got things in correctly.

    Not sure the point of a behind the back bunt

    https://youtu.be/e8z6_pRrQ94 Behind the back bunt? It worked in this instance, but would it really confuse the defense that badly?
