Hi I am wanting to buy this net for softball soft toss, but I am wondering about the bottom of the net. Does it have stakes for the back bottom portio

As shown in one of the pictures (the one with the bag), there are 3 stakes - 2 for the left & right front and 1 for the back

If you make sure the velcro net tabs are tight around the post you shouldn't have a problem. As for Jesse's question; There is a black perimeter around the bottom of the net. After setup place the black portion under the cleat on the bottom of the posts and the net will stay secured to the ground. Great Questions!

It has holes on the bottom edge that can be used to stake it. It does not come with stakes. Wind will blow it over if not staked down.

No hook at the bottom. The fill slot is only a length zipper thru the middle. My buddy who does boxing told me not to fill it with that much sand because he didn't think it could hold up. Mine at this time has 1.5 cubic feet of sand in it.

I to had a hanging problem, net did not look like pic. Thought it should be back into hitting area. I use plastic ties, three of them taking several holes of the net into it each and tie to pole going through the green holes, or also the back rib. Behind the Callaway hanging sign. Put one at top, middle and bottom, allow some sag. The sag is what stops the ball, and prevents you from tearing up the net! Glenn

Hi. It comes with stakes and you need to use them. You also need the guide lines. This tent does not stay up without it so that means you need good soil too. I tried using this tent on the beach and ended up with it laying on top of me. Hope this helps.

Good question. Yes, it is anchored to the grass with 2 U shaped metal anchors that are about 5 inches in length. Once the pitch return is all assembled, you place it where you want it to be, and use a rubber mallet (or a hammer that has a wide face) to hammer the anchors into the ground. The anchors go around the short pipe between the net and the back of the frame, basically near the lower corners of the netting.

Oh my. We got this a few years ago, I want to say yes there are stakes. Only used it twice.

It comes with stakes that worked fine for me, although I purchased extra on the advice of others. You will need something to drive the stakes in the ground. Also a tarp for the ground is helpful. Easier to clean a tarp than the bottom of the tent.

I ordered this to take to the beach. I would highly recommend sand anchors. What we did was dig holes aobut 6-8" deep, put the stake in sideways, and pack sand and water on top of it. It held for the most part, but some high winds definitely made the stakes loosen and therefore the net sagged. also note that the poles seemed to dig down into lose sand a bit when trying to make the lines to the stakes tight. Not a problem, unless you must have the net at the exact correct height.

The net has an extra line running on one side. ( I believe its a different color) I hanged ours from that side just for more support.

Yes because it's narrower which gives it a little more spring. It's best used as a protective net for pitching and drills. If using for soft toss, the BowNet Soft toss net is a better choice (wider and less spring with BowNet Big Mouth and the Jugs Travel and Instant screens working best if you want to deaden and collect balls for soft toss

It does have a smooth bottom - no stakes, but it does stand up on its own really well due to the metal wire running thru it being flexible but stiff. Mine has never fallen over. Hope this helps.

It does stay upright, but we have holes in our gunite deck specifically for a volleyball net. We do not use the blue holders that come with the net. My husband did try them and he said they do not fit correctly. In addition, the blue color came off on his hands and was hard to wash off.

Yes it comes with lead weights. This is a small net. I consider it a beginners net. I prefer a 8' radius net but it is harder to throw

It has on the bottom corners rings for tent stakes. I weighs nothing so will blow away. Comes with light weight tent stakes. You might want to find better tie down stakes.
