High Three-Quarters Knuckleball In Slo-Mo

Here's a couple of knuckleballs in slow motion. I try to get a couple of turns on the way to home plate. It seems to work pretty good as a change-of-pace pitch, too, even if there's not much movement. Thanks for looking, have a nice day!

How fast are these going? What I've noticed is the faster I throw a knuckleball the more movement it has. Even if it spins 1 full turn to 1/4 turn to no spin at all. I can get it up to about 55 MPH on average.

I'm no expert but I have someone catching my pitches to tell me if they're moving or not. I don't throw a regular knuckleball so I don't think any of my tips will help. There are videos on YouTube which can help, I'm sure. Good luck!

you should actually throw a knuckleball slow. -wikipedia.

A good knuckle ball rotates about one full turn during it's flight, preferably over the top. It's a misconception that it shouldn't rotate at all. A slight headwind is ideal, but the stonger the headwind the tougher to control.

its going way to slow to notice any movement

@imwildthing99 knuckleballs are not suppose to drift in air, you actually have to throw it fast for it to move more

@imwildthing99 drify in the air? umm no

[enter3guigar3man]

[julianholguin]
