How to Grip a Softball - To Throw Harder Right Away

[@JamesVanderVeen]

This change made such a difference in my throw. I was palming the ball before. It took a bit of practice to feel control throwing like this, but I got much more distance and velocity.

Glad it helped. I'm assuming you're a slow pitch player? If so, this is one of my recent slowpitch videos on seven throwing tips: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZ-Ye3qPmqaXbrc

Thanks bud that really helped my throws were all over the place- to the point where I was saying ‘ please don’t hit it to me 😱

I tried out for high school softball coming out of a co-op/community team and not having proper coaching. I am working my best to get better :) thank you- next tryout I’m definitely going to try gripping with my fingers and not my palm!!

Thanks Dan. Subtle but great point: right ankle faces target.

Thats a good introduction

[@amyoneelse]

Can you please make a video about different grips by way of palming it holding the ball mostly on the outer part of your hand and fingers

[@SnapSoftball]

for overhand throwing there really arent different grips, youd never want to palm it. I dont do pitching grips

[@coopercopper-uz7iz]

would you ever use 2 fingers instead of 3????

[@aaronrodriguez1410]

No

[@thomasfraling4376]

How do you prevent elbow pain from throwing

[@SnapSoftball]

there is no formula

[@robertmartinez8733]

Elbow pain is because of improper throwing. You need to practice proper throwing and exercises for throwing

[@todjdvs]

Will I lose control and/or velocity if I only use 2 fingers?

[@SnapSoftball]

Depends on your hand size but probably. Even for me - as a baseball player with large hands - three fingers is best for me. But it’s up to you!

[@todjdvs]

@@SnapSoftball thank you! 🙏🏽
