    C, on a bad day an F, on a good day a B+. My biggest problems are over adjusting to breaking balls and fastballs down the middle- I almost always flick the pci down and pop them up. For breaking balls I tend to lower the pci a tad too much

    I have no issues moving my pci up and down hitting high or low. My issue comes with cutters and sliders inside

    Low middle or middle middle= A+
    High middle= B+
    Middle in=B
    Middle away or low and away= C (sometimes I hit these well)
    High and in or high and away= D

    Overall B- in pitches in the zone

    Low pitches out of the zone= C-
    Pitches above the zone= B
    Inside out of the zone= A-
    Outside out of the zone= B-

    Timing...C+ overall on timing

    @nflman2033 said in Self-Assessment - PCI placement skills:

    I wanna lower my RS grade to like D or F. I bought Kontrol Freeks, trying to get used to them, actually saw immediate improvement in pitching, i see better movement of PCI, but i just flat out look like a spaz with wear i put the PCI. It has to be that i am right handed and dont have the same dexterity in my left thumb that i have in my right.

    I've had this thought too, and I think you're right. I thought about changing the button mapping so I could move the PCI w the right stick and swing w L1 or L2 or something

    Another thing I wish you could do is customize the starting point of the PCI. Like I would probably start it up and in or low and middle if it were possible. I don't really like holding the PCI anywhere other than middle middle because it shakes/vibrates so much and is distracting

    Honestly what i want is no rubber band effect. If i just push the stick a little and let go, it would stay there. What happens to me is i move it to the spot, and then move it out if the spot. If it didn't bounce back, i know id have better placement. Small little adjustments, not huge giant strides

    I think I'd rate myself a D at PCI placement..always seem to be a split-second too slow on reacting. Also, the curveball in the dirt gets me way too often.

    Any advice, not sure if it’s PCI or timing but desperately need help hitting... EVERY SINGLE game from 575 and up I lose 1-0 or 2-1.. occasionally I get a 1-0 win. My pitching is insane I just can’t hit the [censored] ball and it’s making me hate this game!

    There honestly isn't a grade high enough for me...if the object was to somehow always get the edge of the PCI on the ball. No idea how I do it, but I can just miss every single pitch.

    My pci location is usually good to very good... Timing... Oh boy timing. I know nothing about timing. How often im early then late on back to back same exact pitches is boggling. But my pci is dead center. I cant explain why it is at all.
