The belief is that throwing accuracy is a given sport skill. The truth is sport skills are not given to anyone. Sports skills are learned through doing the right drills, with the right intensity, for the right amount of repetitions. In this book, Coach Renner explains the three-specific throwing mental cues and how to teach and coach them to make any quarterback more accurate. He provides pictures, charts and drills that detail how to incorporate the mental cues training with your quarterback. He discusses how to teach throwing windows, read the defender of the primary route, and make three important pocket movements and still be accurate. He provides you with his quarterback target layout that you can build to have your quarterback develop consistent use of the mental cues and achieve consistent throwing mechanics. He includes a workout plan to show you how to improve your quarterback's accuracy in the off-season and the in-season. And, at the end of the book he has detailed pictures of the throwing mechanics sequence and how a quarterback's balance, posture and core stability affect his accuracy. Coach Renner has used these mental cues to develop his own team's quarterbacks. These mental skills helped produce two Elite 11 quarterbacks, college quarterbacks and quarterbacks who became very good high school players. During a 10-year, 116 game span, Coach Renner coached 5 different quarterbacks, at 4 different schools, in two different states. They threw for 27,117 yards, completed 60% of their passes, averaged 34 points a game, and 6 wins a season for those 10 years. Using these mental cues allowed them to be consistently accurate. Understanding and implementing Coach Renner's mental cues with your quarterback's throwing routine and plays will help your quarterback improve his accuracy as well.
