This video should help dispel some faulty ideas about pitching, specifically about using the bounce versus forward leaning the club into impact.

Before we get to that aspect let’s just be sure to note that all these players make full use of their pivot in order to properly sequence the swing and to get the body to lead the hands and arms into the shot.
