@LaHgurl101 you cant throw a drop without throwing a fastball sooo you know how to throw a fastball.. there basically the same thing and if your young you should not throw the rise it will hurt your arm

[LaHgurl101]

that is like basically the only pitch that I can throw!!! But I need to know how to throw a fast ball & a rise ball!!!

[silversides0]

I do the peal drop its my best pitch!!!!

wspp60, you are 100% correct. The peal drop is far superior. It gets less movement in general, but can be thrown harder and is much more deceptive.

First off I respect Ernie Parker, the coach in this video. He's worked with some of the top pitchers in softball, like Jennie Finch and I believe Lisa Fernandez also. But when my hitting students see the "flip" or the turn over drop ball like the one here, they pretty much stay off of it or don't swing, unless it hangs in the K zone. This pitch and most breaking balls in fast pitch are telegraphed. If you want to use the drop ball, use the peel drop. It looks like a fast ball. more deceiving.
