Yesterday I did a publish about Stricker's pitching approach and pointed out that he does not straighten his hands. So nowadays we cover a way to pitch with immediately palms!
This might appear contradictory however it is no longer. Different human beings use exclusive techniques due to the fact they get higher results with one or the alternative. The big question is...
How do you realize which approach is exceptional for you?
Symes says that this technique feels "wooden." I'm not sure that's a good description. This may be a good technique for you if you use a very shoulder-oriented putting stroke... and if you do, this probably won't feel "wooden" to you at all.
There's truly most effective belongings you need to recognition on in case you need to do that pitching technique:
- Neither elbow bends at any point during the stroke. This is the main difference between this and the Stricker stroke from yesterday's post. That means you have to turn your shoulders a lot during your backswing, which is different from the way most players pitch. Again, that's why Symes describes it as "wooden" -- if you don't do this normally, it WILL feel a bit weird.
- You'll probably need to limit this technique to shorter pitches. Symes suggests 40 yards or 40 meters (which is closer to 44 yards for us American players) as the outer limit. It's not that you can't use this method for longer pitches; it's just that you're more likely to move a lot over the ball on longer shots. Why? Because the bigger your shoulder turn, the bigger your hip and leg movement. Unless your tempo and sequencing is solid, you may find yourself making poorer contact with longer swings.
