If you want to clock the speed of a moving object. This will work! We can clock bat speed also.

Yes works for baseball and tennis. Needs to be in line with the ball coming at or going away from it otherwise angle error will degrade accuracy.

Yes, it's good for baseball pitching. I've had it for 2 years and it works very well for pitching.

Christine you can even watch the speed of your tee ball. Check out the video, the small white ball with red stitching being thrown, is a BASEBALL

Very good for pitching. That is all I use it for. Have tested it side by side with stalkers and it has always been the same or only 1 mph off

I use it for my little leaguer who is 12 now. It works great if you are behind the plate or behind the pitcher(hard to get this seat except in bullpen).

I use this on all of our teams mako's and it cause no damage to the bats nor the machine. the material the stick and ball are made of are a softer material than the little league balls are made of.

Yes, we use it for baseball all the time. We get a reading APPROX 70% of the time if used properly. "stand behind a net/fence and throw at the gun into the net/fence" if you use a catcher your reading can pick up the catcher movements.

Not sure about baseballs, but my daughter used it for softball and it did not dent.

Almost positive it's a 20 pitch. I will check later today. What do you need them for?

Yea, I play college baseball and I use it alot. I'd give it an 4.5 of 5 stars. Only reason it wouldn't get 5 is because nothing is perfect but this is well worth it. The price was 91 when I bought it, it has raised so I wouldn't wait because it's getting more popular. And it was shipped fast.

I believe the manufacturer had a 60 mph softball rating and 80 mph for baseball.. its a good pitching machine. Just like the Juggs machine used by many high school teams. Make sure to use dimpled balls for safety reasons, if you use regular balls it has a tendency to pitch them all over the place at high speed setting.

I have a few of these nets that I put together to make a 44 ft batting cage. My son and his friends do hit real baseballs using a Zooka pitching machine. They get the baseballs pitched around 45 to 50 mph. My nephew has tried it a few times and it was pitched about 65 mph to him. The poles are flimsy and bend if it's real windy, so I added a few tent pegs and some extra string to make it more sturdy.

I am not sure but regular baseballs go through this thing great. Once I got used to it, I actually get more consistent pitches than with the Jugs machine we use.

My grandson for whom we bought the pitch back net just happens to be visiting. He loves it for lacrosse, but does not think it would work for batting practice. I think he is a reliable source. : )

Accubat is great for hitting baseballs. You can hit controlled pop-flys, ground balls, and line drives. Accubat has saved my arm from throwing outfield pop flys.

If I were a softball player I would use this with a baseball. If you train using a smaller ball then hit a bigger ball during games it should be easier to be successful.

I utilize it for my 7 year old and 11 year old baseball teams. It would be good up until high school and beyond, in my estimation. It works great!

I use only 9" dimple balls (12" for softball) made for pitching machines. You can find them online for around $20-30/doz. 3 doz should be enough so u don't have spend too much time picking balls up.

I would buy the 45 MPH Sandlot balls at a shorter pitching distance. If you are using this machine at a normal pitching distance of 48' then get the 60 MPH Trend Sports 60 MPH Sandlot Balls - 6 Pack I have had this machine for two seasons of play and it still works great. You can also use this machine to throw fly balls.

Hello Matt, Yes, Rec Specs are perfect for baseball. The one thing you should keep in mind is they do run a bit small, in size. The Maxx 20 and 21 are good for children, or people with small heads and faces. The Maxx 30 and 31 are better for adults. If you have any other questions, please let us know. Judy

This tee is great for players of any age. We bought one for our high school teams as a trial purchase last season. It's durability and ease of use made it a quick favorite when compared to the other tees we own. I would suggest getting some rubber mat homeplates to go with it so your players can work on pitch location and body position in the batter's box. One great thing about this tee is how easy it is to adjust pitch location.This is a great product for hitters of any age level! Hope this helps you out!
