PollyWolly,
Continue to go to your partner on a checked swing every time that a catcher asks - unless you're being mocked by a particular catcher. As PU, your primary focus is on the pitch, not the swing. Your partner - in every standard position - will have at least as good a view (probably better) than you will. You will not do yourself any harm by asking, you will likely get into a more difficult game if you do not check.

In a college game, you will find that you are required by rule to check every time you are asked. I suspect there is at least one other organization that requires this check, but most sanctioning bodies merely strongly recommend that PU check with BU whenever asked on a check swing.
