Mr. Board Member I stand by what i say and I have the backing of some men world class pitchers who will affirm what I say. My opinion is as a pitching coach of 31 years now that a pitcher should now turn the hand and arm over like U do. The I/R will happen automatically U don't have for force it. The two videos you have posted mispresent me the way I actually pitch so if i get a chance to post myself and NOT U then I will show the videos of how I do it and U can then criticize all U want. One of the video's is me thowing a rise without using my wrist and the other is a domo on how not to do it. All the best JJCarter, feel free to search this thread for Nunthia1914’s opening and continued comments regarding I/R and the methodology I’ve laid out for learning to throw a softball underhanded and ultimately the pitching motion itself.
He opens with, and continues to say, “this is wrong. “you are teaching it wrong”. “You don’t know what your doing.”
So I don’t think we are talking past each other. With that said, I’ve shown him numerous times in this thread that what he thinks happens doesn’t, and what he thinks doesn’t happen actually does.
What I’ve done, both here and in my original I/R thread, is to first teach people to understand and recognize the proper method that occurs in high level mechanics, but also give them a path here in this thread to accomplish it.
What Nunthia is basically saying is “this method, and you, are wrong” vs. “Here’s a way to accomplish the same thing”.
So again no, we are not just talking past each other.
Bottom line is we here at DPF know how much this information has helped thousands of students, parents and even teachers further the goal. Heck, honestly, some of the most respected pitching coaches in the sport have adopted, refined, better understood, and/or even just begun speaking more correctly about the fast pitch motion based on the two I/R threads I’ve posted here.
So when someone starts posting about how wrong this is, basically telling people not to follow the principles laid out here, they need to be called out with facts supporting the information.
Peace bro!
