This might be well-known, but I haven't seen it mentioned, so I figure it's worth posting.
One issue which I have had in the past while using analog pitching was stick drift on the way up, particularly when using pitchers who have long deliveries. Recently, I found a solution to this issue which doesn't necessitate using the thumb and another finger to steady the stick.
Starting the delivery requires only the slightest movement downward, and the delivery will continue as long as the stick isn't moved upward until the desired release point. It took a little while to break the habit of bringing the stick all the way down and then sending it up to pitch, but making the change has been very helpful, increasing my accuracy a great deal by negating the occasional pitch which sails off-target due to stick drift on the way up.
Thank you, I've never heard this tip before. I'll give it a try.
