Was looking to get the Jugs Lite Flite machine. What are pros and cons for this machine? Any good prices out there if so please post the website.
If you're hunting the used market, look for the First Practice Fencebuster machine, too. It's the same machine as the Jugs LF, and can often be found at a lower price.
At moderate and higher speeds, the rapid backspin on the light ball caused by the small wheel makes the flight trajectory not quite right for hitting. However, I have used the LF machine frequently for blocking work with catchers. It's also good for fly ball work with young players. The foam balls are a little less scary than real softballs.
Anybody use the jugs small ball pitching machine? Wasn't looking for one but just happened to run into a guy who is selling one as his DD is off to college. Thought about buying it but looking for opinions. Probably would use this in my basement.
