Pitching Machine

By: GaryA

I've used a Jugs 2 wheel for the past 3 years. My boys are now 9, 12, 13. It's the top of the line Jugs and I will be able to use it for many years(top speed 100 mph), and when I no longer need it I expect I will sell it for top dollar with no problem. I use it in an 80 ft cage in my yard and also use it for throwing fly balls. I use regulation balls as well as dimple and rubber (kenko?) baseballs. the different balls mixes up the location of the pitch. The rubber balls go higher than the hard balls at the same speed. This way the batters sees different locations. It's easy to set up and use and i get a lot of use out of it. Considering I am 47, I have very little left in my arm and I bought the machine because the kids were tired of waiting around for me to pitch a strike. They also got a little mad when I hit them. Great investment, go for the 2 wheel jugs.
