With the GDS, because you set up around 4 feet back, the ball should be dropping by the time it gets to you.

The point I have tried to make is that sorry catchers will hurt you no matter where you stand. The distance between the pitcher and the umpire in heel to toe vs. GD on a fastball thrown by a college age (or high school even) pitcher is INSIGNIFICANT. It's gonna hurt like Heck if the catcher don't get a glove on it.
I deleted the rising fastball comment for obvious non-reason.
