Adam Nelson Stand Throws

[@PearlGroove]

Way to often coaches place way to much emphasis on the standing throw for spinners. Once he stand is mastered then it should only be used with heavy balls in August-December of the training year. After that, the importance should fall to the half-turn and stands should only be used to warm-up the arm. During the rotation u are always turning into a stand throw so whatever throwing you do it should always be with a turning motion. The glide is linear, the spin is rotational. Train accordingly!

50 years ago Randy Matson threw 65 feet standing....I saw him do this in1966 at the Fresno Relays...Perry Obrien's eyes were as big as pie plates as he knew his time had ended.
