Pitch vs. Punch elbow

[shortgamer]

After not knowing what these meant I got out the little yellow book tonight and correct me if I'm wrong but the punch elbow comes down to the side of the torso and the pitch comes down in front of the torso? Now, are there any advantages or disadvantages of either besides more lag with the pitch. I currently have a punch, is this something I should even jack with? Just trying to learn.....

the pitch has more available power just like throwing a ball. A person that uses the pitch postion when throwing a ball can definately throw it farther than using the punch or push postion. The punch and push position to me would be akin to throwing it like a girl.
