on the journey
IMO i think that you can take your DD a long way into her journey by reading all the stickies here and working on 'throwing the ball underhand' vs trying to teach her how to pitch. Alot of my DD's current routine is just throwing, working on mechanics, spin and location. That feel then needs to translate into the pitching motion. Too many times my DDs mechanics break down completely going into a full pitch. The original IR in the classroom stickie is the bible. As well, you have to make sure there is brush at the very beginning. Monkey butt without brush will kill your DDs progress. Once the base mechanics get there just continue to 'throw' underhand. Then see where you go from there. You will then know somewhat what to look for when a PC comes in. Throw overhand, throw underhand, throw overhand, throw underhand. Just my 2 pennies.
