Love it. Been using it in youth ball for 4 yrs. Started using it in college when it became approved. Very quiet, easier on the quads, and looks strong IMO. Can't imagine going back.

Can you describe it for me? Is it different than what some refer to as the scissors? Can you clear the catcher with the Gerry Davis stance? I believe it was a couple of years ago during the WCWS that the home plate umpire got in the way of the catcher fielding a foul ball around the plate because he couldn't clear the catcher. I believe he was using the scissors stance.

Read this. It should answer most questions you have.
