How fast can this machine throw?

The settings say 35, 45, and 55 mph. I guess it's true. It's a Wiffle ball, so it can loose speed quickly. It does throw straight and fast. We like it.

I don't know actual speed, but it's fast enough to sting like a mother if you walk in front of it at the wrong time. It "simulates" 15-95 miles per hour. By putting it on the fastest speed, and moving it a little closer, you essentially have the same reaction time that you would for a 95 mile per hour fastball at 60'6". I got this for my kid, but I've hit off it, and it's legit. Move it up a little, turn it to max speed, and it's a good little portable pitching machine.

I would say about 16-18mph, (Some of the patterns work better at slower speeds than others), either way it is really really cool!

I do not count its round per min, however it has the same speed whether you put load on it or not. It is a pretty strong motor. Its speed is around a normal robot you used to see on the YouTube videos. It's not too slow, but certainly not fast. I have not try to detach the wheel, since it looked like it is pretty well glued. But I think you can detach it by force!!!

It give very fast speed. Reviews show that this model is the fastest you can get.

It says 50 mph. It is fast enough depending on what you use it for: fielding (great), flyballs (great), pitching mound (good- you need a lot of balls)

I've used it as is up to 3". However, off the base it can go much higher. But...the length of the throw is about 2". It's a great small machine that is very accurate.

I only use it on lawn equipment, but it's pretty fast I think. Maybe only a minute or two

I'm sorry, but I have NOT used it for that purpose. Looking at the instructions, I really don't think you can do that. It is like a "Police Speed Gun". You shoot the gun toward an object---I guess you could have someone " shoot you" coming at them. It would have to be faster than 10MPH, Ibelieve. It usually work for Balls being tossed or vehicle speeds. I hope this helps a little. Sorry for the delay in replying

Nope, very dangerous idea. The machine will throw rocks as well as it does snow. You also stand a good chance of doing damage to the machine as well, not made for throwing solid objects (rocks & stones).

See other answers..Can move all the way right and left. I love the machine.

Just throws in front of you. No way to throw sideways.But I will say this is the second season of use and it does more than I expect every time. 30min manual hand shoveling done in less than 5mins with this.

It's not as fast as having multiple throwers but it's quick. I using mine with singles mostly but sometime I use doubles. I also have mine on the optional cart. I love it!

I've only rowed it, but I can row it about 40 mph. So - my serious answer is I don't know how fast a trolling will run this.

I don't know how fast it is. It was okay. Not always accurate throwing balls. Add the batteries don't last very long. Would have been better if they had the option to use an extension cord.

I don't think so. ATEC only recommends sft type balls. If you check their website it states that. If you tried to throw dimple balls or anything harder than sft type, you could damage the machine. That being said, it is a great machine and will throw approx 60 mph. I highly recommend getting a cheap net backstop so it makes it easier to return missed throws.

Quite Fast. We raced it against another toy car and it beat it. Better handling too.
