Necc
I should have my NECC dvd back tomorrow. .. looking forward to watching it.I decided to buy his book today because I was bored at work. He definitely does not like the sway method for framing. I just started it also. For $10.00 on Kindle it was worth it.
I did like some things he mentioned about blocking. ..the mental approach etc...
I haven't seen Xan's video, but sway is not good IMO and is not what NECC teaches. What some don't realize or don't execute successfully, yet is essential to NECC's approach, is that the catcher has to beat the ball to the spot so that the glove and body are NOT moving when the ball is received. If a catcher doesn't move to center the body for each pitch, they won't be in good position to execute a block when necessary.
I am looking forward to Xan's book on calling pitches and hope it isn't limited to baseball, but includes the fastpitch game. IMO, its like going from a 3-speed to a 10+ speed bike.
