With the Pitchers Power Drive you can pitch live to a down catcher with your normally momentum delivery with a hip lead and hear the solid auditory click feedback. This device was designed by purpose to be very low to the ground with no springs to hold back your naturally delivery. Built with the right plate weight and mechanism to let your naturally hip lead drive the plate down by normal gravitational force. No springs to assist or resist your natural delivery. Spring resistance would cause pitchers to push incorrectly or with their foot and knee instead of using their hip. The plate was also designed to move both directions with no stop on the back side. This is to challenge pitchers balance as it is a very important part of the delivery. It allows coaches and the pitchers to identify mechanical balance faults when pitching. For example a pitcher that is on the back edge of their foot at knee lift would drop the plate back first and then forward losing balance and stability to lead with their hips. The pitcher learns that solid foot contact is the most athletic to balance and drive from.

The Pitchers Power Drive was designed for pitchers as a valuable training device to put in their training toolbox. As Jerry Weinstein now with the Colorado Rockies advised me in my early years of training…..”Put as much into your training tool box as you can to work with and improve your skills”. There is not one pitching coach or instructor, book, DVD or training device that will teach you everything. Keep an open mind to learn new things and never think you know it all from experience, reading, viewing DVD’s, training or scientific research.

Train with the original US Patent "Pitchers Power Drive" as it was designed to allow a natural fluid delivery with a hip lead. The Pitchers Power Drive is the choice of Professional, Collegiate, Youth and High School pitchers.

How It Works

the “Pitchers Power Drive” teaches pitchers to start their delivery from knee lift towards home plate by initiating the starting force with their back hip pushing their front hip out in front of the lead shoulder, This loads their weight back over the rubber for a solid standing foot contact. This weight transfers into the back thigh, knee and ball of foot to allow a back side initiated power drive. This initiates the kinetic power chain of throwing a baseball thus creating more power into landing. This backside power initiation with weight back creates more force at pitch landing by speeding the hips, torso and arm speed creating a more explosive pitch delivery.

The pitchers proper hip move forces down the “Pitchers Power Drive” plate and produces an audible click on the tee striker plate when the pitchers weight transfers down the mound from knee lift position. This device teaches proper hip lead; weight distribution and transfer of weight from the pitchers knee lift position with immediate auditory feedback. You can have your normal momentum delivery off the device to a down catcher.
