Right and Left Hand Color Coding and Ball Rotation, Too! It wasn't easy to visually provide hand placement cues for both right and left handed shooters, without creating a graphic disaster. To accomplish this, we opted for clear color coding; red for righties and blue for lefties. As an example, the "Hand" for righties is presented in red, as is the thumb and pinkie positions on the "Shooting Hand." Black is used to indicate all common hand contact positions (finger tips on the Off Hands and the middle three fingers and palm on Shooting Hands. As an added benefit, the ball is striped in bright contrasting panels of high-optic yellow and orange. This striping provides positive feedback of the rearward rotation of a correctly released ball. Intermediate Size: 28.5
