There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So someone pitching 50mph from 30 feet away, while having set the distance to 60 feet away, was undoubtedly going to get a 100mph reading. I figured if I could avoid doing something like that, the ball would actually be helpful. Wrong. From the get-go, I had difficulty setting the ball distance to what I actually wanted and after 20 aggrevating minutes of doing the exact same thing and reading the instructions several times, the ball finally decided to do what I was trying to get it to do.
Finally, after setting the ball's distance properly by some sort of miracle, I took it outside with a friend to give it a pitch. We measured a 45' distance between his glove and my moment of release and I threw some warmup pitches with another ball. When it was time to actually throw the bullet ball, it wouldn't turn on even though instructions clearly said you had to tap it once to achieve this. I kept tapping it and tapping it again several times and after 2 minutes, the ball finally decided to turn on.
I threw it, battery covering and battery both shot out of the ball as soon as it went into my friend's glove. Friend caught it dead center of his glove and I know for a fact that I can't pitch over 70mph.
Kind of a waste considering I spent a very long time trying to make it work and then having it fail on me on the first pitch. Would not recommend.
