I thought I would start a new thread, because I found out 25 years ago how bad my team played after spending an entire winter hitting off a machine.
They were freshman and sophomores in college and I was so enamored with the indoor cage.
All I knew about using it, was from watching the baseball team just get in there and hit away - a lot.
I bought a Jugs Junior for my kids and my older boys hit pretty well off of it. (It has both attachments.) But, again, when it came to softball, my DDs team didn't have any success.
So, now, I almost shudder when a softball parent tells me how much time there DD spent at the cages last week.
My DDs HS team did not fair well from using the machine every day at practice either.
So, after all these years of "scientific research" I would rather have a dad throw tennis balls overhand to the girls, than use my Jugs for BP. Does anyone know if the colleges even use a machine anymore? I notice that most MLB practice here in Tucson, is live pitching.
