Best Softball Education

[Seattlecoach]

So I'm fairly new to this site and like most before I began posting I've scoured and read many a thread. What I've been looking for lately are sources that appeal to my visual learning style, so mostly dvds or videos. Obviously, clinics and lesson are usually great options as well but right now I'm looking for more of an in-home education. I see a lot of threads where the best opinions for a certain skill (pitching/hitting/etc) is discussed but never an all inclusive. Basically I'm gathering what has been posted in many threads and want to see if there are other great resources out there I'm missing. I hope this helps any other newbies such as myself and any opinions on links I've listed or resources I've missed from those who have seen them are much appreciated!

Thanks!

Thanks, I'll have to look into it! Have you seen their hitting stuff, if so do you think its worth it? Or do you just like the pitching?

I've heard the hitting is good but for us it's mostly pitching. Someone else might have some better insight.

Another vote for DB's Total Presentation.

I just was able to access DB's Total Presentation since I needed to be on a computer, rather than my phone. I just added the 2 sources to my now running list.

DB's stuff was all really good but like I said before I'm more of a visual person so it was pretty dense for me. For those who like it do you use the products as well or mostly use it more for diagnostic help.

Thanks again and keep the resources coming!!

The important part about Buster's Total Presentation is the discussion of swing mechanics, not the products.
