All I can say is that I have used the stance since 1999. I work pretty high quality of high school baseball in my area and I DO change my head height when I am forced to work deeper. I do not move my head height UNLESS I go deeper (this may last a batter or two, never more).

Tony can intone what he wants . . . I do what is TAUGHT by the Davis clinicians.
I agree with Tee. We have few catcher's who really like to crowd the plate, they are almost always close to BI, and I find that with them as I move closer to the plate that my head height goes lower.

That gives the same angle on the high pitch that you have from further back (even if its only a few feet) with your head higher.

And I'm talking very good high school baseball and college guys, not small ball.

Thanks
David
