She's been using the pushback and 2 step drills in order to better understand the feel of proper drive while overlapping with a pronounced rearward arm swing. The timing was actually much further ahead of the Gifs before we started. Was close to 9 at toe touch. The most recent gif shows...
Thank you for everyone's posts and suggestions. Enough overlap and proper timing seem to be the biggest challenge in consistency right now.
She's pulling alot of things together very quickly and those detailed suggestions will definitely be a focus moving forward.
Back to work. I'll update...
Thanks to all who Pm'd and posted. Very insightful.
Ken B - we've been working drive mechanics for about a week. I posted a video of the results from the 2nd time out.
Still raw. but seems to be gaining ground.
There are a few things I noticed, flying glove hand (it's back), needing a...

New to the site - first post. Bucket dad using the threads and posts on this site for insight, mechanics, and drills. Trying to convert a pusher to a IR. DD started IR conversion right after HS season. Didn't think it would be this hard! I would appreciate feedback on any part of the pitch...
