Ah yes the crow hop Or the kangaroo hop as I view the move many times by players who field the ball and travel vertically straight up body and feet alike with no forward momentum gained whatsoever, you gotta come and get, gain as much ground as possible into the throw keeping the feet close to the ground, [ come and get it, feet low,close to ground, gain ground and throw.][ No vertical up hop.]
This is a crow hop. When I played the outfield I didn't take a huge step with my front foot, I just did a normal step. I think this is a crow hop, just not what is generally assumed to be a crow hop. Like he said all a crow hop is is the footwork from catching to throwing. Outfielders just have bigger crow hops than infielders, for obvious reasons.
A good drill I was taught... Was to use a juniors baseball bag or something roughly the same size and crow hop over that! It forces you not to be lazy with it and to really allows every bit of ur body weight to be used in ur momentum! Of course u don't always have a massive crow hop some situation just calls for a quick release. But it is a drill makes the fielder put in a decent crow hop.
This isnt relaly a crow hop, When i crow hop in the outfield i field the ball on the left side by my left knee and then hop up and push off with my right foot, after the ball has left my hand im almost falling over from putting all my body into it.
@Sessyome3 yeah, this is more of a quick throw-in for a short-ranged put-out or just getting the ball in the infield... it will not give you what a true crow hop will give you...
@Sessyome3 well no duhh if yur a lefty of course it is gonna be different from the right handers. just because it is different from your way (lefty) doesn't mean it is not right

That is a scoop and pop for infielders. A crow hop is for outfielders who are throwing over the cutoff man!

lol why would an infielder ever need to crow hop. The technique should be more of a shuffle...

Sessyome3 is right, this is not a crow hop. A crow hop is exactly what Sessyome3 describes.
This drill is for an infielder if anything.

i think they should empasise takign a step or two towards their target after teh throw to help develop accuracy and velocity.

yeah thats outfield. And that's usually when a runner is threatening to take an extra base and you wanna gun him out. infield is different.
