I'll be honest. Years ago I learned that I call a more consistent strike zone by setting up exactly the same on every batter. My head drops no lower than the extended throat protector on my mask being about the height of the catcher's helmet. I look down and into the strike zone, rather than framing myself with it.

Sort of the philosophy of the Gerry Davis stance applied to the heel/toe stance. Mentally, my strike zone adjusts with each batter, yet physically I remain the same. I realize that this is not for everyone, but it seems to work well for me.
