I had a PONY game tonight..used the GD system for the first time tonight. I'm hooked. The closest I came to getting hit tonight was some dirt that came out of the catcher's glove into my mask. I did have one problem, and that was with the shorter players (a couple of the kids were no taller than 4'6"-4'9"). Suggestions?
what was the problem? calling the high pitch or the low pitch.

i found that when I first started using the Davis stance, (or I guess its actually a variation that I picked up from watching some of the pros) I had a little problem with calling the high pitch too high.

But after a summer of work, I got it down and now its as consistent as it was when I had my knee stance.

Thanks

With the shorter batters, my eye level was already above the strike zone and I just didn't feel comfortable in getting the low pitch (which with these kids would be just off the ground). Maybe after a few more games I'll get used to it?
