Gamma Tennis Ballhopper Balltube Holds 18 Balls - Lightweight Durable Easy Ball Collector, Carrier, and Dispenser, with Shoulder Strap

This isn't going to work. Picking up the ball necessitates a lot of force. When you turn over, you won't be able to empty all of the balls. I tried the opposite way by reversing the ends. Neither of these methods worked. This item is not recommended in any way!.

The rubber flange that keeps the balls inside the tube begins to wear out after a few months of use, and balls that have lost some of their fuzziness can no longer be picked up. I borrowed my son's coach's Penn tube and noticed that it has a hard plastic flange that allows it to pick up balls that the gamma tube cannot. To replace this tube, I ordered a Penn tube.

When I teach, I keep four of these on the court. The transparent tubes are appealing to me. It's a great motivator for kids to see who can pick up 18 balls first when it's time to pick up the balls, and I switched out of the traditional baskets because they're easier and more compact to carry in my trunk. They've made me very happy. It was simple to carry all four on my back at the same time.

I like the idea of using this hopper to pick up tennis balls, but it can only hold about 10 balls before they all fall out due to the weight of the balls. To keep the "rubber band" from separating when it's full, it needs to be redesigned. I also like how the hopper is hung from a hook.

I've discovered that the end of the rubber band that is supposed to hold the balls in place is ineffective. It's either too difficult to get the balls into the tube or the tube is too loose to keep them in while I pick up other balls. This is dependent on where the rubber band adjustment is placed. I've tried a few different configurations, but none of them seem to work well. I'm not sure how other reviewers seem to be getting along with theirs, but I'd like to exchange the one I have for one that works; it's just a pain in the neck.

Do not purchase a tube that has been previously used. We felt good about ordering this used tube, but that all changed when we tried to use it for the first time and discovered that the band was broken! We started a return, but forgot to deliver it to the post office; I only realized it today, but the return date had already passed. The $38 is now gone. Do not buy a tube that has already been used.

This Gamma Ball Tube is available in TWO different colors. the materials I had previously purchased the RED one, which miraculously lasted over 5 YEARS. Regrettably, the TRANSPARENT one, which appears to be made of different materials, cannot be said. The red one appeared to contain a small amount of elasticity (e. g. This transparent one appears to be made of crispier HARD, most likely cheap, plastic, and thus can withstand more impact from occasional drops to the court surfaces, especially with younger kids learning to play tennis for the first time. I couldn't believe the state it was in; after only a month of use, the top of the tube had broken off and was severed from the rest of the tube. I was furious, especially because the transparent one was much more expensive than the red one ($50 vs $35), and I got a subpar quality ball pickup tube! I would strongly advise against purchasing this tube; not only was it of poor quality, but it was also quite costly.

Is it really necessary to have so many practice balls? It's very easy to use and convenient. Unless you're working with a ball machine that can launch over 100 balls, how many practice balls do you really need? br>br>It's a lot more convenient than lugging around a heavy ball basket. For service practice, I only need a dozen or so balls, and it's simple to keep the tube full of relatively new balls and hang it on the back fence for rallying with a partner or service practice.
