The Grip

Improving players around the world, one pitch at a time.

Why Choose The Grip?

Are you a parent or coach searching the internet for ways to help improve your player's pitching performance? 

Have you become overwhelmed by the vast amount of contradicting information out there on the do's and don'ts of pitching? 

Do you wish you had a complete guide to teach you everything you'll need to know in order to teach your kids?

After spending a number of seasons pitching professionally at the International level, it's become clear to me for the need of better youth pitching knowledge at the International level. My goal in creating this Pitching E-Book is to help educate players, parents, and coaches towards creating better practice routines, better throwing mechanics, and an overall better understanding of what it takes to become a successful pitcher on the mound. I know how difficult it can be trying to find consistent, reliable information on the internet, which is why I've put together an all inclusive guide covering EVERYTHING a pitcher needs to know and do in order to improve performance. You don't need to be an experienced coach nor do you need to know the in's and out's of baseball. All you need to have is a willingness to read and understand the material and apply it to your players. 

This E-Book doesn't simply list what pitchers should be doing, it provides detailed descriptions of how they can do it. This guide won't contain conventional baseball wisdom you've probably heard repeated time and time again but is instead, packed full of real-life knowledge and techniques gathered from my years of playing and coaching around the world. Everything in this guide is derived from my personal routines, mechanics, and mindset towards the game of baseball. I know they work because they've worked for me and now I want them to work for you!

I've coached college, high school & legion baseball for the past 17 years and Dustin's E-Book is one of the best resources I've come across. He breaks down every aspect of pitching in an engaging way that can benefit beginning pitchers as well as guys trying to play at the next level. If you want to get better as a pitcher or coach you need to read this!

About Me

Dustin Hamilton

Founder of The Grip

My journey has taken me around the world pursuing the life long dream of getting paid to play baseball. As a ball player growing up in the States, I was blessed with the luxury of learning from experienced coaches and developing in a great support system for student-athletes.

After finishing my college career, I seized the opportunity to continue playing professional baseball overseas and further expand my knowledge of the game. Since that time, the game has taken me to the countries of Australia, New Zealand, Austria, France, Spain, and Belgium; allowing me to work with a diverse group of ages, nationalities, and languages. 

While my playing days have come to an end, I now embrace the opportunity to continue giving back to the game that's provided me with so much and pass along the knowledge I've accumulated throughout my experiences.
