What in the Heck is a PCI Anchor?
Imagine the PCI is a mischievous puppy with a mind of its own. It darts around the strike zone like it just chugged a Red Bull, making it hard to track that heater coming in at 100 mph. The PCI Anchor acts like a leash, gently pulling the PCI back to a predetermined spot when you're not actively using the thumbstick. Think of it as training wheels for your hitting – it'll help you stay centered and react faster to pitches.
Anchor Away, My Friends! (But Maybe Not All the Time)
Here's the beauty: You can set the anchor anywhere in the zone. Want to sit high and crush fastballs? Anchor it up! Feeling like a ground ball machine? Plop that anchor low and tight. But remember, the anchor's not a magic bullet. Against pitchers who paint the corners, you'll still need to react and move the PCI. But for those times when you're facing a predictable pitcher or just need a confidence boost, the anchor can be a game-changer.
Pro Tip: Experiment with different anchor placements in batting practice. Find what feels most comfortable and gives you the best results.
Tip: Note one practical point from this post.
