∙ 2011-02-25 13:58:36The pitching distance is 40 feet from home plate to the back of the pitching rubber. For 18U Gold and collegiate softball the pitchers mound is 43 feet away. This is because pitchers throwing at these levels throw much faster than those at the lower levels, making it a lot harder for batters to identify pitches.

A softball feild. It basically consists of a flat area with dirt/sand over it. You measure out the bases and the pitchers mound and you've got a softball feild.
Measure from the front edge of the pitching rubber to the back tip of home plate.
Yes.
In a standard softball field, the distance from home plate to first base is 60 feet. To physically measure this distance, we use a long, windup tape measure. Note: The distance between any of the bases is 60 feet. From the tip of home plate to the far side or back of the 1st base bag.
From the tip of the plate to the edge of the rubber closest to the plate.
35 feet from the tip of home to the front edge of the pitching rubber.
The distance used is measured from the back tip of home plate to the front of the pitching mound.
All measurements are done from the apex or tip of the plate.
As a rough - not absolute - measure, yes, that is correct
The correct answer would be 40.44.
