    Getting from 9 o’clock to 12 o’clock ?

    What would you consider the ideal position for the hand and elbow to travel getting from 9 o’clock to 12 o’clock. How high should the ball be over the head, how bent should the elbow be when you get to 12. Should it look more like a circle with hand extended way above the head or more like an...

    Becoming a pitcher only?

    For the people that have girls that are pitchers only, at what age did this happen? Did she get to bat, if so only when she pitched or even when she didn't? How did or has it worked out, do you regret letting it happen? I have seen this happen at a fairly young age and am just curious especially...

    Can pitching too fast too young make a kid more susceptible to injury?

    For the guys that have been doing this a long time. Have you ever seen or do you think it is possible for young kids to pitch too fast at a young age, causing them to be more susceptible to injuries. Let’s say you have two girls 9 years old. One throws high 30’s the other high 40’s does the one...

    Why we need some kind of pitch/inning count in softball!

    Because some coaches and some parents are to ignorant to know better and to stupid to care. Watched a girl pitch 6 straight games last night. If you figure she was averaging 75 pitches a game then ad in warm ups that puts you at 100 pitches per game easy. So in 12 hours or so she threw at...

    Tryouts and players actually getting cut from team?

    So how many teams in your area actually have tryouts every year or fall and spring, and cut players if someone better shows up for tryouts. Before I got involved in TB I thought that was just how it was. Every year teams would have tryouts and if you didn’t make the cut you were gone. There is...

    Old men and autographs

    Was at the Alabama Vs Auburn game today and stayed for the autograph signing session after the game. As we walked from line to line so my DD could get her ball signed.

Are these the same bat or was there actually two different models. Also for the guys that sell bats have you heard when a new...
