Can anybody tell me more about what is done during the elite pitchers boot camps over a weekend at the texas baseball ranch? Ive gotten info sent to me about it and im on the fence about going because its alot of money and a decent ways away from where I live, if you have done it was it beneficial to your son? and in what ways, im going to be a junior next year and really want to maximize my current ability for my prime recruiting year next year and heard this can be a very good start but I just want a non-sponsored opinion about it

Thank you for asking!

 

My 2012 and my 2016 both did the Elite Pitcher's Bootcamp.  I'd characterize this as approximately a 3 day introduction to Ron Woolforth's assessment of a pitcher's current throwing status (mechanics, velocity, etc.) and an introduction to Ron's training methods with a focus on those drills necessary to maximize that pitcher's velocity, command, etc.

 

The EPB is expensive.  For the attentive student, they will come away with drills to be worked on at home.  That may require a coach who's receptive to new ideas.  It will definitely require hard work by the pitcher.

 

My son's liked the EPB.  They liked the weekday (Mon - Thurs) Summer Ranch training program more.  It had the elements of the EPB, but they were worked on with Ranch staff Monday through Thursday.

 

It's expensive.  It's not in a deluxe location.  And I and my son's found what Ron taught to be very impactful.  Improvement ultimately requires dedication and hard work when a player is not at the Ranch.

Also, not sure about TBR but the Armory offers "Road Shows" in various cities which could be a closer option for you. Go to the Armory Power Pitching Academy website and there is a number there to call. Ask for Randy or Ty and either one of them could get you information on the next city they will be in.

TBR tends to go on the road in the off-season. Mike Ryan's Fastball USA camp is just one of many, for example!
