Re: ?Have a Pitching Form Question???
I compare stepping back at the beginning of the windup, to hitting. ?The pitcher is getting that "negative" movement, to start her delivery. ?If you have ever really watched the girls that do step back, they have a more fluid delivery. ?
I'm not going to get on here and debate anyone on what is right or wrong, I'm just merely stating.
Up onto my Soapbox.....
How many, (#'s from OHSAA) of the 765 Ohio HS softball teams, actually have pitchers that will compete, or want to compete, at the college level? ?I would guess thats it less than 10% and closer to > 5%. ?That has the number being between 76 and 38, Ohio HS pitchers that will move onto the college level, each year.
With this being the case, it continually amazes me as to how many people want to change the HS game to mirror the college game, when it comes to pitching and other aspects of the game. Sorry, but the numbers just don't back it up. :-X
