Gerry Davis Stance for softball

[Steve M]

I used this stance this weekend with some men's ball, modified a bit for softball as in:
-in the slot
-closer than an arm length+
-my thumb was behind the edge of my leg guards instead of my hands just above knees - this protects against what I think is a possibility of broken fingers.

The only difference that I'm aware of is that I was set up higher than I normally am. I don't know yet whether I'm a fan of this stance yet, but... I intend to use it again, maybe even next weekend in some youth ball. My knees certainly feel better, I had just as good a look at the low pitches (based on partner feedback).
