What is your K/9? About 18? LOL
Lol! IDK, the first time they see it, it’s pretty rough. It gets better.
I am getting a couple swinging misses per bucket. Lots of balls that look like they would be foul. Maybe a third of the balls pitched are put into play, most of those are probably not hits against good competition.
With a “normal” machine set up I would say that most balls are driven pretty hard. Extreme example: Over Christmas break I saw a nice D2 hitter blast ball after ball to the same spot in the middle of the cage about 10’ above the Jugs machine. I think she hit around two buckets and if there were many mishits I don’t remember them. Would she benefit from changing speeds and spins?
The only way I can measure it right now with snow on the ground is a marked improvement when I throw them front toss where I am trying to spin the ball and change speeds. I see improvement there. Won’t really know until we are playing next spring.
