Re: Approach to Hitting Issues!

thanks guys.

I use the default batting camera and the PCI off.

Obviously i realise the plate coverage is still on just not visable but i think having it "on" is a good idea simply because although i move the left stick i don't EXACTLY know where and how much of the plate im covering.

i think a problem is where i "preset my guess pitch location" as i mentioned it's always UP in the Middle so after 2 pitches if im 0-2 i never know whether or not to keep it up and in the middle or now maybe move it low in the middle or pick a side.

Lets say i keep it UP in the zone, i pretty much dnt present my left stick at all, im waiting for the pitch but its all a reflex reaction to pretty much protect the plate.

With PCI on i could now see more of the zone im covering and look to get more solid contact or see WHERE the pitch is going earlier.

How about Pitch type skills out the hand not via guess pitch. are there certain traits easily identifiable when hitting to realise what kind of pitch is coming towards you and it's potential length of break.

finally, i mentioned im always late on my swing, esp fastballs, i always foul it to the 1b via pop up. is there a certain way of establishing the timing of your swing. i try swinging early and im REALLY early, has anyone found a useful way of getting their timing in sync?
