Questions & Answers

Will a bat get a ding from these?

Yes, these training balls have the potential to dent some aluminum bats. Because of the one-pound weight, it's best to use bats that can handle the extra work. This is a quality item.

Hello, despite the fact that these are designed for baseball, their primary purpose is to aid in the development of throwing speed and mechanics. If you have any further questions, please contact us through the seller page. The mechanics are similar to pitchers' and could be beneficial for fast bowling practice.

Is it possible to use these with a Blue Flame manual pitching machine?

Baseballs with a heft to them
5/5

I was looking for something similar to these. I've reached the age of seventy. I grew up hitting a regular baseball in a field, walking after it, and repeating the process for years. I had no one to play with and couldn't seem to find anyone. I discovered a few months ago that there are senior baseball leagues for men in the United States that I had never heard of before. I became a member of one of these and placed an order for these balls as well as a T to hit them with. Because I'm a pitcher, I hit the balls and then throw them back to the T to practice my pitch. Since I got these balls a few weeks ago, my pitching speed has improved and I can throw further. My batting average has risen in the last year. I know I'm older than most baseball players, but I'm still a kid at heart when it comes to the game.

Jugglers will enjoy it as well! For a set of six balls, this is a fantastic deal
5/5

They are a great addition to a juggler's arsenal, even though they appear to be aimed at the baseball community. The weight of the balls is ideal for warming up, strength training, or joggling (Juggling while Jogging). The loose filling also ensures that the balls do not bounce around during practice. For just a set of three, similar juggling specific weighted balls go for much more. These appear to be of excellent quality and should serve you well for many years.

Durability and good value
5/5

I chose these over the SKLZ because they appear to be more cost effective, as you get six for the price of two SKLZ. Currently, I am the head coach of a T-ball team. a ball and an 8U team These are great for warming up your players' bats in a small space. It also serves as a tool for visualizing and feeling solid contact, as well as reinforcing ball driving. They appear to be on par with or better than the SKLZ in terms of durability. I'll update my review if that changes. br>br>However, they are slightly larger than the SKLZ 15oz balls. In terms of size, the SKLZ balls are also more comparable to baseballs. Overall, I'll switch to these because they're a better value than the SKLZ and have the same or better durability.

GoSPorts 2 is the sequel to GoSPorts 1
5/5

Baseballs that are 8" in diameter and are weighted. A fantastic tool for younger players to improve their pitching and, most importantly, their hitting. It makes batters follow-through. The ball lopes and travels only a short distance if they don't follow through with their swing. These are also great because they travel slower when hit, making it easier for the pitcher/coach to field them, and they only travel a short distance even when hot properly. I'd buy it again if I could.

Exceptional value for money - Baseballs with a weighted center
5/5

I'm always on the lookout for a good deal as the president of our local Little League. I was concerned about the quality of the weighted baseballs because the specifications were similar to those of much more expensive brands. I'm here to tell you that the quality is good, but the price is even better. I was also pleased to learn that my purchase and online review would result in a donation of a soccer ball, football, or basketball to the Boys and Girls Clubs youth programs. GOSPORTS, keep it up!

GoSports 2 is a sequel to GoSports 1
5/5

8" Weighted Hitting Training Baseballs I bought these to use for hitting drills on the tee when I had a limited amount of space indoors. I wanted a soft, heavy training ball that was about the same size as a baseball. To drive the ball off the Tee and into my net, good batting mechanics are required due to the softness and weight of these balls. Batting mechanics require well-coordinated Tee drills and a lot of repetitions of "homework. " So far, these practice baseballs have provided me with everything I require. This book comes highly recommended.

Great product for a great price; I bought these because they were significantly less expensive than the alternatives, and I was not disappointed! They're ideal for backyard practice because my son can swing away without fear of hitting it into a neighbor's yard, and the quality is on par with the top-of-the-line ones his coach uses at practice

Juggling is a breeze with these
4/5

I'm a school occupational therapist, and these are great for strengthening your hands. We employ them as a means of preparing for an upcoming event. juggling, juggling, juggling, juggling, juggling, juggling, juggling They're not as easy as I'd hoped, which is why I didn't give them 5 stars. It's not too hard, but it's also not too soft. When you get hit while playing catch or drop one on your foot, it hurts.
