hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today we're going to be going over the hitch
in comparison to not using the hitch when throwing the deep ball i think this is going to be a super
important comparison video just because there's a big difference in how the force ends up being
created when you're using the hitch when you're throwing the deep ball uh in comparison to when
you don't get to hitch at all and and how you're going to be able to move more laterally when
you're not going to be using a hitch i'll get more into that in the actual video as always if
you like the information go ahead and click the thumbs up down below that really helps us out
a lot share it if you can and then if you have any recommendations for us going forward go ahead
and put that in the comment section below we're constantly checking that and want to make sure
we're giving you content that you're looking to see when it comes to throwing the football and and
being a more effective passer overall so go ahead and hop right in the video now so first thing here
on the left it is me throwing with a hitch and on the right it is me without a hit so you can see
kind of loading back into it that you get to that third step you're able to really kind of
load and sit back into that that throw when you don't get to use the hitch you want to be able to
bend that knee and really push down pretty hard into the ground because you're going to end up
really having to push and get a lot of your weight going this way i could actually do a
better job of really pushing off and getting more extension within that hip i've started to realize
you know guys like josh allen or even like a baker mayfield and russell wilson smaller guys they
really do a great job of creating more extension within the hip and there's a lot of power
that it really comes out of that hip when you're able to get into more of that extension position
and really being able to push off and i also could feel that when it comes to sprinting right when it
comes to getting that great hip extension when sprinting that really helps you in generating
power and i think it really transfers over into being a more effective passer and being able
to put more on the football as a quarterback so you know really making sure you're getting that
extension getting your weight moving forward this way really more so with the hips and the bottom
part of your body you know and then really having the ability to keep the upper body back a little
bit more ends up being super important where when you're hitching you know you get back to that that
back step and and in terms of the distance of the feet you know you get back to that back leg
you're gonna have a little bit of distance there but when you end up hitching forward they're gonna
end up coming closer together for a second you just want to be able to step and then get back in
the distance you're gonna end up over striding because of a hitch you want to still be able
to keep your your feet in a fairly recognizable position in terms of you know when you typically
throw as you can see for me it's not like because i hitched all of a sudden my foot was way out here
i have a pretty solid base no matter if if you hit you you don't hit so you don't want to end up all
of a sudden having your feet closer together when you hitch or way further apart they want to be at
about the same position overall but you can see when when hitching you're already getting your
momentum going this way so now it becomes much more relevant to be able to get quick reaction
and quick rotation within the the hips and the lower body to make it so now you're going to
be able to create more disassociation so you know really again i could do a better job of being able
to get my hips going out in front keeping my front shoulder closed for a little bit longer especially
when throwing a deep ball after pitching into it right so really that that being able to create
that disassociation create that and keep that front shoulder closed and really open up with that
hip is going to be much more valuable and much more of a focus when it comes to a hitch when it
comes when in comparison to when you get onto your back leg and you don't get the hitch really being
able to get a good push off that back leg getting a lot of your momentum going forward utilizing
that hip's going to be important you still want to be able to create that disassociation
within your hips and your upper body you just want to put it more of a focus on getting
that that lateral movement going within your yeah lower body creating that great push-up i just did
another video that i will link up above that goes in depth about the push-off and how to maximize
that push-off i'll go ahead and you know make sure that you guys can utilize that as well because
i think the combination of both is going to be super super valuable for you um and understanding
the push-up as well as understanding the the hitch and no hitch when it comes to throwing
that deep ball um i know a lot of you guys are looking to be able to throw the ball further so
i wanted to be able to add this to your repertoire of understanding what to do in order to really
perfect your mechanics to get that much better i'll be getting a lot of emails lately about
