underarm An addition in the interests of not assuming too much knowledge--- Softball pitching is underarm, but the fielders almost always throw overarm after making a play on the ball. An exception you'll see pretty often would be a short underarm toss used by an infielder who has fielded the ball fairly close to the base.

You have to use an underarm throw when bowling. But if fielding you are able to use either underarm or over arm.
The whole body is actually used to do an underarm throw. However, when it comes to arm muscles, the latissimus dorsi is the main muscle used in underarm throwing.
just throw it as hard as you can! if you lose, don't blame me! :)
Windmill (full arm circle) and a flick (more just an underarm throw)
If the catcher has a good enough arm to, then yes. It is the fastest way.
Get your arm stronger, therefor practice more or even work out. It helped me and im only 12
You throw salt on your left shoulder.
well, when playing badminton, you always serve underarm. If you serve over arm, then you lose the serve.
This is an interesting question. I don't know the exact answer, but i would guess that a softball pitcher could indeed be more accurate than a baseball pitcher at their respective distances. baseball pitcher's throwing mechanics are unatural for the human body as the arm comes up over the shoulder and is torqued, so they will tire a lot faster than a softball pitcher. a softball pitcher has a more natural motion as the arm stays down and the arm will not tire as quickly. this would lead me to think that they could indeed throw more accurate, but for a specific answer i would have to say it just depends on the individual.
Having your technique improved is a major key. You can also exercise to improve the strength of your throwing arm.
T, step, L, throw. Stand in the shape of a T, step forward with the foot closet to the direction you throwing, bring your throwing arm next to your head in an L position, then throw.
