My father was a Special Forces operator with two tours in Vietnam and 20 years of service. To all those like my father, we all say thank you for your sacrifices. Without them we wouldn’t have the greatest country on Earth.

POP TIME
Catchers are always trying to improve their pop time. Taking the location variable out of the mix there are two ways to improve pop time . Speed up your transfer or improve your throwing velocity. In general there is an inverse relationship between transfer & velocity. The faster the velocity the slower the transfer & the faster the transfer the slow the velocity. You have to find the sweet spot between the two to get your best pop time. This doesn’t account for the accuracy component. Sixty three to sixty seven per cent of pop time is ball flight so giving up too much ball flight velocity to quicken your release may not be the best strategy. For every MPH increase in velocity the ball arrives 1’6” sooner to the target. This is a trial & error process, however building throwing velocity is never a bad thing.

One of the smartest people in golf, will have his team prepared and they’ll want to play for him.
Also, a repeat selection whose appointment won’t inspire much positive reaction from American golf fans.
Both things can be true.

I read where Coach Holtz is in hospice care. Let me tell you about my experience with him. He would come on Morning Drive at Golf Channel on Fridays in the fall. I did a couple of segments with him. One on golf. One on football. He was incredibly nice to the entire staff. Brilliant commentator. One Friday he asked what I was doing on a particular Tuesday in early March. I told him I could be available for anything. He said to invite 2 folks from Golf Channel that do the “real work” ,not another lazy announcer like me, to come up and play Augusta National. I asked a couple of buddies, a young producer and a statistician. Both great guys. Shockingly, until they had our names at the gate and let us in, they thought I was playing a cruel joke. 😂. Coach hosted us for dinner and overnight in a cabin. We played the par 3 and the big course. He spent time with my buddies finding out about them and mentoring them. He entertained and educated. He was gracious and kind. He told us it was his honor to host us and that we couldn’t pay for anything except what we purchased in the pro shop. It was a day and half I will remember my entire life. There is no telling how many times he has done similar for others. I learned so much from being around him. My best wishes and prayers to Coach and his family as he lives out the last chapters of his storied life. God Bless!

When a young athlete plays on multiple teams, it’s crucial to track their workload‼️ Remember, it’s not just the pitches on the mound that count. Every throw adds up. Visit teammstrd.com to learn more about age-specific pitch totals and how to keep your arm healthy! ⚾️💪

Good enough isn't.
Excellence requires obsession.
Practice past perfection.
What skill are you still trying to "get right" versus master?
