Only way Ive ever been taught/taught, fast or slow. I think it helps with slowing down your timing a little.

Staning up?

We have some umpires that verbalize then bring the feet together and then mark the strike. I was at an ASA national and was taught to not move the feet, just come out of the squat and mark it high after verbal. I have been teaching this to our association. Did I just have a weird UIC or is this the way it is supposed to be done?
