Rukket 15pk Weighted Baseball/Softball Heavy Training Balls, Practice Hitting, Batting and Pitching with Complete Control Powerball (1 Pound, 2 7/8-inch Diameter)

Order was received quickly and was exactly as described. The bucket is heavy duty enough and has a handle for carrying. All 15 weighted balls were round and not flat as described by another reviewer. Using these weighted baseballs for pre-game hitting has greatly improved our hitters statistics. You can quickly tell which hitters are driving the bat through the entire swing and which ones are stopping the bat at ball contact. Also, the hitters know when they have made solid contact with the bat barrel vice hitting top or bottom of ball based on sound and flight of weighted ball. Just a great tool to help your hitters gain memory muscle for proper swinging. We also use them when warming up young throwing arms and when ensuring proper catching techniques. Once they have used them to warm up and start throwing regular weight baseballs they are amazed how much better and further they can throw. These weighted balls are definitely a worthwhile purchase and its great to see the smile on the face of our players as they get better and better.

This item comes completely ready to use right out of the box. Easy to set up and easily holds 2 - 6 gallon bucket. You can bump it and it will not tip over. Caddy holds bucket at the right height so you can reach in and take out balls without having to bend over. Great product for use in batting cage or on the field.

We are a super serious travel team, bought these and they've lasted more than 6 months, being used at least 4 times per week for the last 6 months. We use the balls on a Tee rather than pitch the balls to the boys since they aren't necessarily the same size as a regular baseball. It teaches the boys to swing hard all the way through. It's part of every game we play in our warmup drills.

Bought this as a Christmas gift for my sons hitting coach. He absolutely loves it and uses 5 or 6 days a week in the cages. He says it is super lite and compact but works great.Sits higher than when sitting on 2 buckets which he loves. Less bending.

Was looking for just a net deal that holds balls, and happened to come across this bucket holder. Wow, impressive! It's a little $$$, but rest assured, it's WORTH THE $, as it's solidly built. Much more than I expected. Also, another reviewer noted their concern about the bungee cords holding up, but I dont even need them. We were outside in some strong winds and never once was the thing unsteady. The arms rotationally articulate considerably out beyond the bucket size, so it creates a really sturdy base, all is made of metal, so, it's not a light flimsy attachment. It folds down easily, is held in "travel mode" with simple Velcro....Heres another kicker: It's exactly the length of those standard sized fold up travel carts. So it transports with all the other "stuff" we bring on/off fields. Truly money well spent and a "why haven't i seen this before?!"

Seems so simple, put a bucket on a stand so you don't have to bend over a hundred times when throwing soft toss to your kid. I've been using this thing for a few weeks now, and it's a game changer. Lightweight, so I've taken it in the car to practice. Collapsible, so it doesn't take up any space when stored. Love this thing. We've used it just about every day in the backyard. My only concerns were that it wouldn't be strong enough to handle a full bucket of balls and that the bungie cords would degrade over time. It is well made and definitely can handle a large bucket filled to the brim with balls. It's sturdy, so I don't even use the cords. No complaints, and nothing but happy with this product.

I used this product for my three boys that play baseball from 5-9 years of age. The product came in without any issues and were ready to be used once they got here. Quality of the weighted baseballs is a five star. They are taking a beating for sure while being shelter-in-place. Excellent product!!!

Great warm-up balls that really gives you a sense of how well your ball players are hitting the ball. I have each ball player first goes through a heavy ball station before heading into the cage for BP. The weighted balls allow me to help tweak the mechanics and get a good sense of how well the ball player is connecting. The red color also helps to best see where the ball player is hitting the ball on the barrel. Twelve to 15 balls seems about right when cycling through a couple of stations (e.g., heavy bat, weighted balls) as each ball player is heading into the cage. The 15pk bucket was the better buy of the options.A word of caution - keep other ball players clear of the area and don't use these in the backyard thinking they will not go far. When a good ball player connects bat to these balls, they can go sailing and can certainly hurt someone or go easily through a window.I would have preferred a heavy duty sack than the bucket. If you are carrying a bucket of baseballs, having this additional bucket takes both hands away. It would be easier to just string a heavy duty sack around the shoulder. Not a deal breaker though.

Great training tool and perfect for practicing as must have ball when hit hard may only fly 10 to 20 feet if that far. Great item
