    Teaching hitting Carrier/Bustos approach

    Sorry Bob didn’t see your question, So many youths are all back and then all forward. The forward should be to stretch against any shift is to stretch the system. Kids don’t shift until the start their swing.

    Jumping isn’t leg drive.

    Pitcher Falling Sideways

    Do not drive harder. She has momentum she can’t handle right now and wants continue forward even after release. I see going air borne as a flaw. It’s releasing the spring into the air. And for that moment nothing is happening, just waiting to come back to earth. Your in limbo. Instead of...

    Improving consistency

    Trust the force, trust the whip. At some point it’s all about concentration and focus, Right Bill HillHouse? You trust in the incredible creation God created. What we can express like art (or in this case physical/skill). That’s all I do with the young ones now. Teaching them to not take over...

    Bill, lol, I have that same lip when I’m in the batting cage. Can’t tell how many times the ball hits that lip!

    Who catches pitching lessons?

    Actually the view behind the catcher when filming is one of the best to look at. Before I started wearing shin guards, I got caught watching the pitcher to long and took a direct shot to the shin. That shin place is still bigger than the other shin.

    Pitchers With Less Than Perfect Mechanics

    I can show you the difference between stacked and not stacked. Agree most do not load correctly. Yes I took the footage at the 2002 Canada cup. She is warming up and pitching against Team USA white and she was on Team USA blue. She won. Thank you for the post.

    Pitchers With Less Than Perfect Mechanics

    She looks the same to me. We have two different follow throughs , drop and perhaps rise. I can do one with both rises. Doing the stepping style with a step forward of the drive foot. Looks the same as when she was 14 and stepping.

    Not using the body as well. The one I had she was more advanced. However this is the start.

    Swinging under the ball

    Yes, and I find it’s not the hands so much as it is swinging with the arms. Trying to guide the bat and then swing.The hands become dead in the process.
