THE CRUCIAL ROLE OF THE GLOVE HAND

When you’re not balanced, your glove hand and your delivery can’t work correctly.

The Inactive Glove Hand

An inactive glove hand is a starting position problem.

Out-of-balance start → Glove arm used for balance → Loss of control → No influence on pitch location

When the glove hand is just trying to keep you upright, it drifts, reacts, and disappears from the sequence

The Active Glove Hand

An active glove hand begins with balance and organizes your entire delivery.

Balanced start → Controlled glove path → Triggers lower body → Sends energy to target → Automatic location

Now the glove hand leads direction, sets timing, and connects the body to the target

Why It Works

The glove hand is the bridge between direction and sequence.

The lower body responds naturally, the head moves toward the target, and the arm no longer must compensate

The glove hand prompts the motion, the body follows, and the arm delivers.

The Key Truth

Pitch location is built by a balanced start, a directed glove hand path, and a connected lower body sequence.

When the glove hand and lower body work together, location becomes automatic.
