Hitting and Hitters Discussion Reverse Hand Swing

[dad4sports]

all of you ask me to do things. Look up stats, look at this video, etc. etc. So I do what YOU ALL ask. Then when I find things that simply don't add up, you get mad and ask for videos of me coaching in a garage! It doesn't matter who I am. If I agreed with you, you wouldn't care who I was. Since I don't agree with you on certain hitting aspects, you get mad and act like children. When I looked on discuss fastpitch, Hitting Instructor blog and other web sites. I saw the same thing there. As soon as people don't agree with you, you insult them, then tuck tail and run. Many of you that have been booted off the island have found refuge here together. I don't troll anything. I offer my opinion and then let you guys blow your tops. I have several private messages from people on THIS site that say they cant stand all of your guys pack mentality and god complexes. Admit it, youre all just mad because ONE person has stood up to the bullies. (it was funny reading Hitting Instructor blog. He calls straight leg, crooked leg) Pretty funny! Oh well, lets talk softball. PS--Im not going to give you a video of garage training. You can get that from Howard, that's if he will even post them. Have a great day!

Demon, the bottom line is that you're a coward. All I see on here is you picking the fight when there wasn't a fight to begin with. Since when did Howard say something on this site that needs you to have to "stand up to him"? You are the one that's sending the proverbial first punch which is going to put anyone in defensive mode. Hitting instructors will obviously defend what they are teaching when they're attacked by people like you. It seems to me that all you do on this site is try to push peoples buttons by disagreeing with what they teach, what they say, what they do, etc. and get people to respond then throw your hands up like, "why are people being mean to me"

Who are you...you've been asked this many times and have not once responded. What qualifications do you have...again, been asked and never responded. So yes, I've called you a coward because you hide behind your computer and don't provide any real substance to this board. You obviously have some type of vendetta but please take it somewhere else.

Do you sense the hostility? You have formed a lynch mob and expect me to just show up for the hanging. You guys can't accept that youre not perfect. You all are so narcissistic it's sickening.

I have put some thought into who this person may be based on input from some very respected people.

In November of last year I had a dad and his 10 year old daughter here at the "garage". He told me he was a HI guy and Richard was his guru however he said, "I did not know we had a hitting Guru in my own back yard!"

His daughter, a 10 year looked very nervous and I assured her I do not yell and scream at my kids as it does not work well especially with girls, as they are audio visual learners. I explained to the dad that in my opinion, that the yell and scream people are coaches that have been married at least twice or in some cases even more. The daughter looked really nervous and again I told her that if she makes a mistake and it does not hurt her or me and we can learn from the mistake it is OK with me. Every time I said something to her she would look at her dad.

We started off as I always do and I soft tossed three balls, as it has been my experience if the head pulls out or they land on a stiff front knee they probably do not throw over hand very well. I have never been wrong when it comes to girls however some of the boys throw well however do not hit well. I made my predication and she did not throw well at all! Based on the organization she plays for it surprised me.

My observations for not throwing well was the back leg not releasing and as a righted thrower she drifted off to the left side when she threw the ball. The other observation was taking the ball behind her head and the palm of the hand facing forward. Additionally, she kept trying to catch the ball with two hands. I asked her to put her arms out to her side and try to take the right had and touch the glove and she could not. I stated that if she was going to make that spectacular play she would not have the range to get to the ball unless she could stretch and reach out for the ball with the glove.

Again she looked at her dad almost like she was scared to death. She started throwing better and more accurately and understood why the flex was important for throwing and how it related to hitting. Yes I am leaving out a lot of details as to the instructions and examples I was using.

When we started to hit she had no balance and as we progressed her timing improved and you could hear the difference when she hit the ball and she was no longer looking for where the ball was hit.

That was basically a two hour session with a lot of other details to support what I was instructing her under the premise of see it, feel it and fix it. I have two huge mirrors so she could actually she herself doing it.

Never heard from the parent again and then the Demon attacks surfaced with enough detail that I knew he had been here.

When explaing this to another coach he described the dad and daughter perfectly and said he witnessed him yelling and screaming at SWOBATS while his daughter was taking pitching lessons. I said no wonder she looked like a puppy that that cowers down when they do not respond to commands.

From this point forward no further responses will be made. He may also be surprised some of the people he plays with understand how he treats his daughter.

AGAIN, WHO DOES YOUR DD PLAY FOR... WHAT ARE HER STATS? WHAT SCHOOL IS SHE AT. OR THE PLAYERS YOU INSTRUCT. WHY DO YOU NOT CALL ME... YOU ARE A TELEPHONE TOUGH GUY AT THIS POINT. A dog barking in the night is easily confused with communication but without knowing the source and why he/she is barking... it's just noise. SMH

And I'm not perfect, just looking to find the path to your angelic glow. Please enlighten me by calling.... 513-884-7529 .

Lester, if you read through this guy's posts (not really recommended) he likes to awkwardly gush about one organization in particular... my guess is there's your answer. Tons of great people in that org... so if that's the case I'm sure they're very proud of all the pot stirring!

Agreed not all is trash... using RP22's video of Evan Longoria's swing to give a visual reinforcement for my DD on some of the things we have been working on. That's a pretty swing!

Had anyone thought to do any research on apogee? Back in the summer before he got out of control he gave hints to his identity, it's in his post from the summer. Also, with all due respect, Howard I truly believe that you are wrong. I also know how off putting and frustrating Apogee has been, but without 100% proof it's wrong to try and put someone and their little girl out there like that. If I had proof I would put it out there by Name but I would not say a word about their kid. I'm getting closer to the answer. Look through the Apogee posts from the start up since the crash. I'll try to post the pics of it if I can get them uploaded.
