I'll admit that I prefer PU over BU, but that's probably because I spent the first half of my career doing single umpire games. Finally, I feel like I'm 95% as comfortable being the BU as I am the PU, but I took a lot of hard knocks getting there. Just stick with it.
Around here, we usually do 3 games per night, with one blue taking PU for the first and third games, switching over to BU for the middle game. If you have that opportunity to choose which assignment is yours, ask to be given BU more than PU. Force yourself to practice and get into that rhythm. As I get closer to my big tournament, that's exactly what I'm going to do. I know I need to sharpen up that aspect of my game, and that's the only way to do it.
