    DD Videos-Back leg drag

    https://youtu.be/LhhC5BLmh9A I am uploading another slow motion video of DD taken tonight. She is getting her back leg pulled up quicker and she isn't leaning near as much but is still missing the brush on most pitches. Can anyone tell me if she looks like she is not opening up her shoulders...

    Java, Do you have any advise/drill on helping DD bring up the back leg during the drive out better?

    DD Videos-Back leg drag

    Ken, She has been doing good the last couple of days staying vertical and her drag has been staying much closer to the power line so hopefully she can keep this going with enough repetition. She is throwing pretty hard not leaning but I worry when we get in games she will revert and try to...

    DD Videos-Back leg drag

    I have heard of PC's using a stretchable exercise strap that connects to the pitchers ankles that help the back leg pull up quicker. Has anyone tried this before or is it a bad idea .

    Thanks Rick. She has always been able to change movements as needed after a lot of repetition but leaving that back leg straight and behind her is proving to be a little more difficult to fix.

    Yes. I have one that I thought I uploaded but I must have uploaded the wrong one. I will enclose it now. It is kind of close up but it does show the back leg. https://youtu.be/TSFG9qMDwSg

    DD Videos-Back leg drag

    I wanted to get some advice on the enclosed videos of my DD pitching. She just turned 13 years old. It appears from the videos that she is dragging her back leg and I am not sure the best way to correct it. It also looks more straight than most higher level pitchers. We have also been...
