whats the preffered elbow position in a hitting procedure? Pitch or punch?
Ive spoken to a real good TGM'er that hits, says punch is easier and dosent require the ultra quick hands that hitting from a pitch position requires. But he also says pitch is a beautiful thing if you can get it done.
thanks
Pitch is extreme, and Push is extreme. Punch is anything in-between. It's tough to move the Release Point as close to the ball as a someone using a Snap Release/Pitch Elbow. But, the Hitter can move it to an earlier or later point to manipulate speed and trajectory. If you wait as long as possible, you better have some fast twitch muscle fibers.
