Strive to throw 85 (MPH) thread.

[RudyRuetigger]

keep throwing doug, the machine will work the kinks out and come to it's senses

I see no difference between your bullets and these other guys

i just cant believe doug thinks he is anywhere near these others

[RudyRuetigger]

Without significant practice, your average person would be lucky to throw a baseball over 50 mph. For trained players, the average pitching velocity ranges between 40-50 mph among young players around 9 or 10, between 55-75 mph between 10 and 17, to an average of 80 mph for 18-year-olds and above.

[Orbison]

why is the video back to being flipped now? so frustrating trying to follow this.

[RudyRuetigger]

and for the record, that serve would hit the fukkin opponent...no way itd be a good serve



yea, you should be over 100 if you are just swinging as hard as you can without trying to get it in play

[teacher10]

Guys cut Doug some slack. It's his first day.

I'll still be your catcher if needed so I can frame the pitches. I'll take the Q train to Coney Island.

At the 17 second mark Rudy, please tell me how Geinke's 54 MPH slop with a hump on it is 4 MPH faster than this.

im not picking on doug


hes an average pitcher for a middle aged man...nothing wrong with that

[RudyRuetigger]

At the 17 second mark Rudy, please tell me how Geinke's 54 MPH slop with a hump on it is faster than every one of my pitches.

maybe the gun is off slightly


but look at your pitches compared to the 80s in archies videos....your ball is literally falling when it gets to the plate


theirs are still pretty much on a straight line

[SamsNCharge99]

Under is winner baby

[Chi_archie]

it's perspective differences

slow both Dougie video and Greinke Vids down to .25 speed and time with the stopwatch on your phone..

if we get a decent number of people to do that for 3 trials and get the avg, we'll have a good indication

archie won thread


archie didnt you post some pitches back in the day???


lets see that video

[Doug tushyterror]

that's def faster than 50 mph but less than 80 mph did u read up where u are supposed position the radar to get best results

10' to 15' directly behind the ball to get an accurate reading. There's an entire thread on another forum about these inaccurate readings. Gonna give them a call tomorrow & see what's up. If it turns out I only top out at 70 to 75 I'm fine with that but I just want an accurate reading.

[Chi_archie]

Recount!!!!

why dont you think matching up video speeds works?




but, i do know about inaccurate readings....i can cheat this thing to get my speed real high

Doug

Use your legs

In baseball your velocity is generated by your leg kick and drive. Get low.

In tennis, your service speed is generated by your arm speed, hit in front& down on the ball from its highest point.

You're 45 years old and w basic mechanics you will throw a baseball 75 miles per hour and serve a tennis ball into the mid 90s accurately

This guy knows his stuff.

You think pitching and tennis is a recipe for injury?

[cincinnatikid513]

call in sbrs tennis pro tt warrior for some serve lessons 😉

[RudyRuetigger]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


you guys are all delusional


dougy wont break 70 in this lifetime

[Doug tushyterror]

Here's how I know I'll always have this enclosed area all to myself with nobody to bother me. Only way in & out is to slide in between this locked fence & I have yet to see anyone willing to do that.

[RudyRuetigger]

McDonalds???


what did you get

[Chi_archie]

Doug you should see if you can find any female reps for that fraud radar company on social media and LET THEM HAVE IT

uppity entitled lying biatches

[Doug tushyterror]

McDonalds???


what did you get

Funny you should ask cuz I'm going there right now to get what I always get on the way home from here. best deal on the app. (I'm just carrying all the stuff I can't fit in my backpack in the McD. bag)

[MinnesotaFats]

This guy knows his stuff.

You think pitching and tennis is a recipe for injury?

No

If he stretches for 5 minutes prior and 5 minutes after, and just does fundamental motion and sticks to 2 seam fastballs w a overhead (not 3/4) delivery he's fine.

Hell, any mlb pitcher could throw 150 pitches p game and 300 inning p year w a 75% fastball regime and no quirky delivery method.

Tennis is the least risky and the easiest for him to rachet up the speed, he's close there as is.

Guys get the tennis elbow from low impact stringing on their racquet as they try to generate more spin from a uber- western style grip. Here, Doug is lucky he got the racquet in the proper hand I'm guessing, so we're not concerned w grip or ball rotation...just the arm speed and point of impact

[texhooper]

Man there is no way those throws are even close to 80 Doug you’re out of touch with reality bro. 50 seems right and also just having “basic mechanics” or whatever will not guarantee anyone throwing 75 you guys man my god you guys kill me

[Doug tushyterror]

Under is winner baby

Not buying the readings Sam but I'm not a welcher.

[Chi_archie]

I thought we had a bet, Doug?

[lonegambler23]

doug tKe a flight to vegas to see MJ man.

[SamsNCharge99]

I thought we had a bet, Doug?

i think i responded before you Archie. I transferred you the points since you did respond as well and you were the initial bettor

[KiDBaZkiT]

Doug, wish I could see the ball coming out of your hand close up. Looks to me like you are letting it go too early. Also like fatty said get a little lower on your front leg as you drive toward the target. BaZ used to pitch super league as a kid. Played in tournaments all over Utah, Colorado, Nevada, and Wyoming. I am very curious to see where my speed would be. I still work on my mechanics daily during the warm months and have for decades.

[SamsNCharge99]

even throwing 50 is still better than 75% of posters here

I could throw just over 60 when I was 13. That was the age I started smoking weed on the reg and skating everyday. That was so much funnier than baseball I can’t even tell you.

i played baseball until like 7th-8th grade. I was all star 2nd baseman but I slowly went from 1st in the lineup down to 7-8th. As the pitches got faster my hitting went down

they moved me to right field where I was still all star outfielder, but batting was getting worse and worse. Sadly you cannot be a DH fielder haha
