I am 6'2", and use the indentical stance to the one that Steve is talking about. To say that the first time you use this your thighs "will be tight" is an understatement, but as you become more conditioned and more acclimated to it, you will find that it does do wonders for your knees, back and ankles.

I would also have to agree that if you are guessing on those outside pitches, then you are too low. When I am in the slot I make sure to set my eyes at the top of the strike zone, and from this position I can see all of the plate and all of the strike zone.
