why is follow through important in sports?

685 viewsOtherPhysics

I didn’t play any sports growing up and my kids are in it now. I hear a lot of talk about “following through” and “follow through”. Throwing a baseball, shooting a basketball, golf swing, hockey, swinging a bat.

In these cases the ball / item has already left or has been hit so why is follow through important? Does it have an effect on the initial release / impact?

I’ll add a random fact, but in soccer, the way you follow through will also determine the flight trajectory of the ball, causing it to curve, slice, dip, knuckle, etc.
