Your Glove Hand Puts the Ball in Your Target!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

A proper Glove Hand plays a huge role balancing your Foot Strike and getting the ball to your target.

An Out-of-Place Glove Hand

In your Starting Position, when your Front Knee goes behind your Front Hip, your Glove Hand is used only for balance and is clearly an obstacle to your location.

Without Glove Hand involvement, you land your Stride, and your Throwing Arm alone delivers your pitch.

Your Throwing Arm working alone pulls the ball to your target and, unless you have a feel for the target, causes you to lose your location.

Properly Placed Glove Hands

However, in your Starting Position, when your Front Knee stays in front of your Front Hip, your Glove Hand is free to sweep across your Body while your Front Foot remains off the ground.

Your Glove Hand causes your Hips to fire, your Hips get your Front Foot to land, and your Throwing Arm to come through to deliver the ball.

Your Eyes looking at a spot within your Catcher’s mitt take the ball to your target with uncanny regularity.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Get Your Proprioceptive Responses in Line!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

Proprioception is a sixth sense that moves your Body from one balanced position to another.

When in balance, you control your Body movements, but, when your Body is out of balance, your Body parts take on a life of their own.

Three Proprioceptive Reactions

With your Feet more than one baseball width apart, as you lift your Front Foot, you make a proprioceptive reaction.

Your Front Knee naturally goes behind your Front Foot.

Again, your proprioceptive reactions come into play as your Front Foot comes forward.

Your Front Foot takes over your motion and you land your Stride to get back into balance.

Once in balance, you deliver the ball to your target at a random location.

One Proprioceptive Reaction

However, your Feet staying one baseball width apart puts your Body in balance.

Your Front Knee Lift rotates your Front Thigh to keep your Body in balance.

Your Glove Hand moves with your Glove Hand Palm facing your target.

You flip your Glove Hand Palm to deliver the ball to your target.

You deliver the ball to your target with uncanny regularity.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Get Your Body in Balance!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

You only control your actions when your Body is in balance.

Poor Balance

When your Front Foot goes to the Home Plate side of your Front Knee, your weight balances over your Back Foot.

You move from your Front Foot lift to your Foot Strike, and you discover your Throwing Arm controls your actions as you go into your Foot Strike.

Once you land your Foot Strike, your Throwing Hand frees itself to deliver the ball.

Your Throwing Hand works alone to release the ball and misses your target more often than throwing the ball directly to your target.

The Balance You Need

When your Front Knee finishes to the Home Plate side of your Front Foot, your weight balances just in front of your Back Foot.

To keep your weight balanced from your Front Knee finishing to Home Plate side of your Front Foot, your next action is to bend your Back Knee and, at the same time, extend your Glove Arm.

When your Glove Arm naturally goes Palm up, your Throwing Arm fires the ball to your target with uncanny regularity.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Get Your Weight Balanced!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

The best Pitchers have their weight create an environment where they deliver the ball automatically to their target.

Bad Balance

You place your weight over or in front of your Back Foot and your delivery is out of balance.

To hit your target, the only use of your Glove Arm is to keep you closed.

Essentially, your Foot Strike clears your Glove Arm, and your Throwing Arm makes a throwing action.

Your Throwing Hand works alone, and your command gets spotty.

Great Balance

However, placing your weight on the Second Base side of your Back Foot keeps your Body in balance.

To hit your target, your Glove Arm is free to come across your Body and your Lower Body gets involved with your motion.

Almost simultaneously, your Foot Strike pulls your Lower Body forward and your Throwing Hand into release.

You hit your target with uncanny regularity.

Creating Good Balance

Your Feet are placed one baseball width apart and you flared your Knees outward.

At this point, if you don’t straighten your Back Leg, your Back Knee begins over the Little Toes of your Back Foot.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Get Your Foot Position Right!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

Foot Placement

The right Foot Position promotes your motion’s “balance” and gets your ball to travel directly into your target.

Common Foot Placement

When you place your Feet more than one baseball width apart, you start an adverse sequence of events.

Your Front Foot naturally goes behind your Front Knee and you “balance” your weight over your Back Foot.

With your weight over your Back Foot, your Body uses your Throwing Arm to offset your Stride, your Foot Plants, and you begin your Throwing action.

Your ball rarely goes into your intended target.

Good Foot Placement

Your ideal Front Foot distance is one baseball width away from the Back Heel of your Back Foot.

As a conscious effort, you lift your Front Leg to make sure your Front Knee stays in front of your Front Hip.

Your Front Foot lift “balances” your weight just in front of your Back Foot and allows your Glove Hand to fire toward your intended target.

Your Glove Hand flips, your Lower Body drives your Throwing Hand, and you deliver the ball to your target with uncanny regularity.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Get You into a Starting Positions!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

You have a natural pitching process built to deliver a much larger portion of your pitches directly to your intended target.

Bad Starts

Your Front Knee finishing behind your Front Hip puts your weight over your Back Foot and an undefined Glove Hand spot.

You can’t help but come out of this position with your Front Foot ahead of your Glove Hand.

You land your stride, get your Glove Hand out of the way, and deliver your pitch.

Your Throwing Hand working alone means the likelihood your ball goes to your target decreases exponentially.

Good Starts

A better Starting Position has your Front Knee finishing in front of your Front Hip and your Glove Hand starting under your Chin.

With your weight just in front of your Back Foot, your Glove Hand works ahead of your Front Foot.

Your Glove Hand ahead of your Front Foot causes you to land your stride, have your Glove Hand pop up, and deliver your pitch all at the same time.

Your pitch goes to your target with uncanny regularity.

Your Front Knee/Front Hip position keeps your weight just in front of your Back Knee.

From this position, your Glove Hand causes you to get your Lower Body into the pitch and make your “Stride and Throwing” the same action.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Get Your Head Positioned!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

To find your target with uncanny regularity, a natural pitching process built to keep your Head in the right position throughout your motion produces spectacular results.

Your Foot position gets your Head too far in front of or one baseball with from Back Heel.

Head In Front of Back Foot

When your Front Foot starts more than one baseball width from your Back Heel, your Head starts too far away from your Back Heel.

Your natural reaction becomes getting your Front Knee behind your Front Hip.

Your Head moves, you Stride, and then delivering your pitch.

Your ball takes an unpredictable path and produces inconsistent command.

Head Over Back Foot

When your Feet begin one baseball width from one another, your Head stays still.

Your natural response is lifting your Front Leg, so your Front Knee stays in front of your Front Hip.

With your Head in place, your Glove Arm starts your motion and fires your Lower Body.

Your Lower Body brings your Throwing Hand through a precise release point.

The ball then hits your target with uncanny regularity.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Balance Your Weight!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

Your pitches going right to your target means your weight is evenly balanced.

Your misses are caused by your weight being out of balance.

Weight In Front of Your Body

Your weight to be out of balance turns out to be your Front Leg, Glove Hand, and Stride Foot location.

Your Front Leg needs to be in front of your Back Knee, your Front Leg going behind your Front Hip puts your weight over your Back Foot, and you compensate with your Glove Hand location.

You land your Stride and throw the ball to your target.

Weight In Front of Your Back Leg

To get your ball to your target with uncanny regularity, your pitch goes to your target with your weight in balance.

You create balance when your Front Knee begins in front of your Back Knee and your Front Leg finishes in front of your Front Hip.

Your Glove Hand takes you out of this balanced position, and your Lower Body pulls your Glove Hand into release.

Your Throwing Arm reacts to this motion, and you deliver the ball to your target.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Get Your Glove Hand to Activate Your Delivery!

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

No Glove Hand Activity

Due to your Starting Position, your Front Leg comes off the ground and your Knee begins behind your Front Hip.

To get out of this position, your Front Foot moves forward, extends your Foot, and hits the ground.

At the point your Front Foot hits the ground, your Glove hand balances your Body, and your Throwing Arm takes over to deliver the ball to your target.

Your aim depends upon the angle of your Front Foot in your Starting Position.

The chances the ball goes to the same point depend upon your Throwing Hand release.

Quality Glove Hand Activity

Due to your Starting Position, your Front Leg comes off the ground and your Front Knee consciously stays in front of your Front Hip.

To get out of this position, your Front Knee stays in front of your Front Hip and your Glove Hand moves your Lower Body.
