Looking for a good nest screen to use ...mostly falll winter basement use.

We can do many drills...but for them to "throw" I need a net with hole to keep them strong over the cold NE winter..

Which one will last? ..two pitching now (10 & 12) and a 3 year old that is asking to do what Sisters 1 & 2 are doing (no, we aren't starting with that other than her green tennis ball and pink glove) .. along with a 7 year old boy who wants to try baseball pitching as well.

You are depressing me! For goodness sakes...it's the FIRST day of summer! Let's worry about the winter...in December!

Our favorite is the Dual Sports Practice Partner. Very solid frame and good canvas. Stitching will give out on the ball pocket with heavy use. Took ours to a local upholsterer and had it reinforced and resewn. It is also very portable, we take it to the field when we dont have a catcher, dad only catches the change ups, too slow to keep up with the stuff. Three years old and still works great.

Too cold to pitch outside in October here!
We have been getting a lot of rain and it is also much cooler in our basement when it is 100.

"Dual Sports Practice Partner" will look it up!

Thanks!
