Mound Yeti™ 2 Pitching Machine

Machine working as advertised. We have been using the machine for batting practice and pop flies. So far very pleased with this pitching machine

My kid was struggling hitting balls at speed he sees regular with this I’m able to get strike zone pitching to him for practice…and the fly balls I can send to out field without hurting my shoulder from swing a bat for and hour. The machine itself is heavy duty only wish it had bigger wheel to roll on across the grass but wish I had this tool years ago.

Bought this for my 10u team. Works well, easy setup and doesn't weigh too much.

I took some time before writing a review for this. We have spent a couple months with it now and the machine is a major disappointment. First, the instructions for assembly are terrible. It isn’t too difficult, but it isn’t simple and the instructions are almost no help. Second, coming from a Junior Hack Attack, this machine is a major downgrade. The ball chute is a major problem and you have to physically push the ball in to feed it. That might seem minor but it creates major problems for timing and consistency. My son hates hitting off this machine to the point where he asked me to sell it. It does throw gas, but the consistency, accuracy, and capability leave much to be desired. Also, when you use the factory recommended settings, the ball doesn’t get great spin and is more like a knuckle ball than you'd expect. You have to have more separation in speed between top and bottom wheels than they recommend to even get anything close to a regular fastball. Overall very disappointing and I'd say the savings are not worth it to purchase this machine vs. other options.

Wish we invested in one earlier instead of wasting it on private hitting coach. Get tons of reps in. Caution, order the dimple balls to get best results. Balls goes all over with leather balls and very hard to set. I should have order some when I purchase the machine. Had to learn it the hard way.
