My daughter has been learning to pitch for just over a year now. She is starting to get fairly consistant and does a decent job overall. Last week, the high school pitching coach was working with a few other girls from our in town rec league and had them using a different kind of follow through. Apparently last year in the mens league he plays in, they had a New Zealander over here and he was showing the guys this kind of follow through. Instead of following through and bringing your hand up towards your head / chest area, he had them folow through so you end up pointing in the direction of the catcher. I guess if it works for them, it does. I am wondering how you get a get hard wrist snap doing it that way. If the wrist snap has a natural upward motion, what happens when it is changed to going out towards the catcher, instead of upwards? Maybe I am missing something here. Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks,
Rob
