Well, I must be doing something wrong here. I've been using the GD stance since the end of last season (2004). My hands are placed on my thighs just above the knees. I do not move them when I drop my butt. I set up about an arm's length (maybe a bit more) behind the catcher. So tell me, why am I not part of the "my hands are exposed, so they might get hit" crowd?
I've taken a couple of hits to the chest protector, but these are fewer than when I used the scissors stance. When in the GD stance, it seems that the FOUL BALLS don't find me as often as they used to. They either drop to the ground or scoot off to one side or another.
Please advise me as to how I need to change the GD stance so that I can get hit in the hands and other unprotected areas! I feel left out of these threads!
