I need a gadget built

[csuttonthompson]

I don't have any idea how to build stuff but -The economy drill I used to do with the little ones (8u) but will work no matter the age is towel whips standing next to a fence -enforces both mechanics and force.

If the 12u rec girls don't start throwing correctly, I am going to have a coronary. I have been thinking of having a high frame, like a high bar, in gymnastics. The girl would need to lift her throwing arm high enough to swipe a piece of cloth hang from the bar. I don't know how to build it. I think the sides need to adjust, for height. Any ideas?

From her complex schematic it better be overhand.

Sometimes working on what the lead arm is supposed to be doing will help get the throwing arm in the proper arm slot, after you get the foot work correct of course.

How about a PVC frame... you can drop the left/right sides into batting tees and instead of adjusting the height of the poles, adjust the length of the towel.

I like the pool noodle idea too... I use them for a few drills.....

Why you guys making it so complicated....


Bownet frame and a piece of string.

Do not confuse things, I am working on where to put the motor so you can adjust the height.

I am trying it with the Bownet.

The bar at the bottom, is confusing to even me. It is like trying to teach 2 things at once. For a girl, the height is right, though.
