My dd has been working to correct a weight to forward problem with some success for the drills mentioned in a previous thread. I have found that if she is looping her glove hand instead of bringing it straight forward, it usaully ends with her shoulders being closed at release.
We have now turned our attention to pointing the glove at the target, then a small pause to ensure a big "k". My question is all the stuff about the glove hand then dropping down and slapping the front of the left thigh. I saw Finch in a live pitching demo last yr. and saw that she slaps the back of her thigh somewhere in her follow thru.
What is everyones take on all the glove slapping, good or bad. Or is it just a style issue?
p.s. My 12u travel teams first tourney is this weekend and I am confident in our teams ability to perform at a higher level than they previous saw in little league. I will post a post-tourney summary with results.
