But for some reason, I still have the habit of calling pitches low. I would appreciate any and all the help I can get. There has to be someone out there who has had the same problem that found a way that helped him/her correct this error. Is there a "trick" I can use to help me get into the habit of being able to tell the pitch is low? It's really frustrating because I honestly DO give it my best effort, but seem to ere in this area.

Thanks in advance....

Good answers above.
When I had that problem, I corrected by getting lower and focusing on the batter's knees before the pitch.
Also, being sure to adjust to the batter's height.
