Dear Colleague,

For 20 years now, I've hosted the "Ultimate Pitching Coaches Bootcamp," a symposium for pitching coaches of all levels to gather and hear top experts share training and development processes that could be implemented immediately. We have been blessed over that time to have the very best pitching minds speak on our stage.

I am so excited to tell you that this year, in honor of our 20th Anniversity, we have gathered the best of the presenters from the past two decades and brought them together for this year's event -- "Back to the Future". These are definitely names you'll recognize as the true thought leaders and revolutionaries in the pitching universe.

Here is the veteran All-Star Lineup: Derek Johnson - Cincinnati Reds Wes Johnson - Minnesota Twins Andy McKay - Seattle Mariners Randy Sullivan - Florida Baseball Ranch Brent Strom - Houston Astros Jerry Weinstein - Colorado Rockies 

And making their debut this year: Dusty Blake - Duke University Josh Kalk - Minnesota Twins

Of course, you'll also be hearing from the entire Texas Baseball Ranch Staff including Ollie Kadey (Durathro™ Coordinator), Jonathan Massey (Lead Instructor), Flint Wallace (Director of Player Development) and Ron Wolforth.  

Without any additional details, I think you'd have to agree, this event is set up to be absolutely incredible. 

But let's dig in deeper...

If you're not getting the results you want from your pitchers' performance, you need to change the stimulus. The UPCBC will showcase 14 of the top thought leaders in player development who will show you when and how they do exactly that.  

Many times -- as you already know -- it's not about working harder, it's about working differently.

Think about the guys you coach. In your stable, you almost certainly have several high-quality arms that are under-performing. 

Why is it that some guys respond to information right away, while others struggle? Some guys "get it" and can modify their movement pattern in just a few reps ... while others really scuffle to adjust. 

Why is that?

In my experience coaching players of all ages and abilities ... from high school freshmen to Cy Young winners like Justin Verlander and Barry Zito ... here's what I've come to understand:

If 25% Or More Of Our Guys Are Struggling With Command, It's Not Them. It's Us. Our System Is Not Giving Them Exactly What They Desperately Need. And We Have To Adjust ... 

If 25% of our staff aren't developing better fastballs or secondary stuff, it's not them. It's us. And we need to make changes.

When pitchers fail to develop new skills, 9 times out of 10, we are contributing to that failure.

And ... bluntly ... sooner or later, that blame is going to attach to us. 

But that doesn't have to be the end of the story. We don't have to accept frustrating, mediocre performance. We simply need to take advantage of the latest scientific findings and "best practices." And the good news is...

Solving The Problems That All Coaches Face Is The Sole Purpose Of The UPCBC  

When it comes to helping your players reach the next level ... 

... you'll find the answers you've been missing at the 20th Annual "Ultimate Pitching Coaches Boot Camp,” at The Texas Baseball Ranch, December 6-8, 2019.

Give us just 3 days in December, and we’ll give you one full year's worth of gains in your coaching skills.  

No matter what level you're at, you'll gain a powerful advantage over other coaches who aren't invited or who fail to attend this special event. Because we bring in experts from all levels -- high school, college, MLB, and athletic trainers from beyond the world of baseball.  

Experts like Brent Strom from the Houston Astros ... Derek Johnson from the Cincinnati Reds ... Wes Johnson from the Minnesota Twins ... Jerry Weinstein from the Colorado Rockies ... you can see the whole list below.

Now, for the first time ever, you'll get access to latest coaching breakthroughs in 2019 and beyond.

Here's an example of ...

What Is Yet To Learn From The Revolution In Weighted Balls  

The baseball world is like the rest of the world. Trends come and go.  

In 2019, weighted balls are a trend. They’re in vogue. You can find pitching coaches using them in every corner of the U.S. and Canada ... as well as such far-flung places as Italy, the Netherlands and Australia.  

But it wasn’t always this way.  

When I first started using weighted balls back in 1993, they were decidedly out of fashion. Baseball “experts” were almost unanimously against them. They thought it was reckless and put players at a greater risk of injury.  

In 2003, we invited Paul Nyman to speak at our Coaches Boot Camp.  

He was an engineer -- with a background in track!? -- and he gave two presentations that changed forever how we trained at The Ranch. He proposed a structured, incremental weighted ball throwing program, coupled with radar for feedback. To Nyman and his engineering/track background, it was common sense. To the baseball elite, it was heresy. To us, it was a missing piece in the puzzle.

In 2005, Dr. Mike Marshall, Cy Young winner, spoke at our Coaches Boot Camp.  

He delivered a fiery presentation that laid the foundation for how we train athletes today -- by preparing the soft tissue before any velocity enhancement program. And our weighted ball training efforts took a huge leap forward.

What's the moral of this story?

To the outside world, the revolution in weighted ball training may have been a surprise. But if you were here, at our Coaches Boot Camp, learning from the likes of Paul Nyman and Dr. Mike Marshall ... you had this information months and even years before "mainstream" coaches caught wind of the changes.

In other words ...

You Can Grab Your DVDs and Get Ahead. Or Do Nothing and Risk Falling Behind... At The Expense of Your Pitchers.
