Testimonials
Coach Wolforth has had 31 of his former pitchers drafted in the past 5 years alone. He has had over 45 pitchers exceed 90mph
and he consults for 19 different Academies across the USA, 5 different Division One Universities and 2 MLB organizations.
"I work with professional pitchers all the way down to 9 year olds just starting out. The Pitching Pad is an
exceptional tool for every level. I can tell you that since I've been using Paige Bishop's Pitching Pad, I
know I will never again work with pitchers without having it in my tool box. When I first received it, while
excited, I was not expecting much from it. I couldn't have been more wrong. My staff and pitchers find
new ways every week to utilize The Pad. I have long believed the single greatest teacher in the history of
man has been trial and error with immediate, relevant and objective feedback. The Pitching Pad delivers
that in spades. I am constantly asked to endorse products and I rarely do. I give the Pitching Pad my
highest recommendation. It is an awesome tool."

Brent Strom is a former MLB Pitcher who was selected in the first round of the 1970 draft.  He was a MLB Pitching Coach for
the Houston Astros and Kansas City Royals, a minor league pitching coordinator with the Nationals/Expos from 2002-2006,
and is now employed as a minor league pitching instructor for the St. Louis Cardinals. He is an expert in athletic movement and
bio-mechanics used to create velocity and control.
“I have found the pitching pad to be a solid product for a number of reasons.  First and foremost is its
durability and flexibility.  Durable enough to withstand pitch after pitch and versatile enough to be taken
anywhere and used in any throwing drill your imagination can take you.

Giving lessons while catching a pitcher is an affront to our profession.  Who can really teach mechanics or
proper movement while attempting to catch a thrown ball?  While I like to utilize a catcher as often as
possible the pitching pad can provide instant feedback, be utilized anywhere and first and foremost allow
you the teacher to do what clients are paying you for...teach with the confidence that your attention is on
the student, not in catching a thrown ball.

Solid, simple, convenient and necessary for the serious student and teacher.”

Lance Brown is currently a volunteer Pitching Coach for the Texas Tech Red Raiders Baseball program. Prior to this, Brown
spent 17 seasons as the head coach of Texas Christian University’s Horned Frog baseball program, where he still holds the
record for most wins as a head coach. To date, he has had nearly 50 players drafted in to the Major Leagues.
“We have used the pitching pad and found it to be very useful in developing control for pitchers at our
level and really at any level. The key to pitching is throwing strikes and this is a very good tool. It allows
pitchers to throw to different spots and the key is you can make it competitive which makes it interesting
while you work.”

“The Pitching Pad has helped us be more consistent with locating pitches. The more we have used it the
better we have gotten. The Pad also saves us time by freeing up our catchers so they can take live
bullpens and work on their fundamentals. The pitchers throwing on the side or doing flat work can use
The Pad to help them train at a high level while my catchers are taking live bullpens.”

"The pitching pad is a great training tool for baseball players of any age or ability level. It is easy to set up
and easy to use and doesn't require a catcher for feedback; you get it instantly yourself. It not only will
improve your accuracy, it will help you polish your tools and be able to transfer those to actual game
situations. I would recommend this product for anyone who wants to improve their pitching staff, lower
the amount of walks and ERA, and become a more accurate pitcher."

“I love your idea, if teams had two or three of them, practice times could be cut in half and be more time
effective...catchers could work on their mechanics and tools while the pitchers are getting their own
workouts...

Infielders could use this as well...if you are short a 1b for any time during practice...Awesome idea...”
