Sling Pitcher® Pitching Machines Testimonials

"I have coached for many years and I have never been so excited about a piece of equipment! Now that I have used Sling Pitcher pitching machine, I would not be able to start my warm-ups without it."
-Guillermo Fabela, 36 yr old youth Little League and Babe Ruth coach

"Kim,
I told you I would let you know how the pitcher is doing. I have been using it indoors with my high school team, and I am more than pleased. In 19 years of coaching softball I have seen a lot of gimmicks come and go, but your sling pitcher is the real deal! I'm getting pretty good at using it and the girls are having fun experimenting with different speeds, (from 30 mph to 70-80 mph), distances, etc. It's added a new demension to our practices. My biggest concern was that it would be little more than a toy. Well this "toy" is getting my girls ready to face the fastest pitchers on our schedule. Good luck."

"We had our first open gym with the girls this past Saturday and the girls loved (the Sling Pitcher). It only took me around 10 balls to get
pretty accurate. It pitched regular balls great too, (but without the Sling Guard yet). I just pitched them into a net without a batter."

Hi Kim.
"Just wanted to update. We have had an ample amount of time with the slingpitcher and are finding more and more drills that we can use it for. It comes out at the start of practices and is used throughout, the girls have improved significantly on tracking as well as timing because of the ability to change every pitch, I now use different colored balls randomly as well as textured to indicate the play or swing, because of the speed at which I load and fire their response must be quick and reactive without hesitation, I have found that the overall confidence of the girls has greatly improved and we all know how much confidence plays a roll."

"I used my slingpitcher last year with my softball team @ Shoals Christian High School, it was a big hit with the girls. My girls renamed it the "Launcher". Thanks again!!!".

"I have never seen anything so exciting that can help my kids so much for such a small cost".
Dwight Thoren - Father and Manager of Little League and Babe Ruth Teams

"I use the "Sling Pitcher" for all of my practices with a girls softball team... Our practice field has no electricity and this light weight unit is easy to transport around. I was unsure of this unit when I first bought it, but after using this for many times now, I would never buy any other pitching device... Works Great & very accurate. ( the fly ball attachment arms are also very useful for my practices as well)
I have showed this to several people in our area and the interest is growing."
thanks - Clay Bramblitt, Mabank, Tx.

"I think that this product is revolutionary in its approach. I have used the product in my training and have found it to be a very effective tool!"
-Hank Jacobsen, professional pitching coach

"Kim, used the Sling Pitcher in our practice today. It worked great, batting practice was awesome we could get instant feedback with the kid's swing instead of them waiting for us to throw the perfect strike. Thanks for a great product."
Pat Riniker

"Kim, The sling pitcher works great! I have been able to pitch all kinds of pitches to my girls 12 and under softball team with it. It has allowed us to have an effective batting practice. Yesterday at our practice I was watching another team 14 and under girls softball practice next to us and the coach was throwing slow pitch to a fast pitch team. It makes no sense to pitch slow balls when in a game it is fast pitch. Thanks for the making a great product! Their is no way I could go without it. Several people have already asked me about the machine and I told them to go to Slingpitcher.com. and find out about it."
Thanks

"I love this machine; It teaches the boys without intimidating, and approximates live pitching closer than traditional machines. The fly ball adapter is awesome because the boys can learn to get under the ball without being scared (using the foam balls)."
-John Horsfall, Current Coach of a AAA Little League team

"The Sling Pitcher has helped me become a better hitter. I spend at least 1 hour a day practicing. I am playing with Baseball Idaho, playing college teams. With the help of the Sling Pitcher, I have made contact every time I have been up to bat. The Sling Picture will help any kid that wants to improve his batting skills."
-Nick Morris, High School Varsity Player

"Kim....I just received my new Sling Pitcher yesterday. I wanted to thank you for designing such a great product. We had been considering buying a regular machine, but had several concerns. Many of the playgrounds where we would be practicing didn't have electricity. If we went with a conventional "pitching machine", we would have to cart along a generator as well. The cost for both machine and generator would in effect price us out of the market. But after looking at the Sling Pitcher, all our concerns were put aside and at a very affordable price. My daughter plays softball on an under 12 league. We used it at practice yesterday with terrific results. This is such a versatile piece of equipment. We used it obviously for batting practice and for other things as well. At this age level, occasionally you will have an errant pitch that is in the dirt or off to the side. We spent some time throwing "bad pitches" to our 2 catchers. After several rotations of "bad pitches", they each became proficient at stopping the balls from getting by them, which will be invaluable in live game situations with runners on the bases. We plan on using this exercise next with our 1st base players as well. The extension arms for fly balls are very easy to install, and ball after ball flys effortlessly into the outfield with no misses. Again, I am looking forward to a fun season with the girls, especially now that we have such a terrific practice and teaching tool.....I can't say thank you enough."
Frank Robbins

"We use the Sling Pitcher for the fun factor with the kids and grand kids. It's used at all of our family get-togethers and reunions. It is very fun & launches fly balls much more consistently than using a bat."
-Kerry Stimpson, Grandparent

"We have only used our Slingpitcher three times since Christmas, but have had a LOT of fun with it. The most positive aspect of the Slingpitcher has been my ability as a mom to play baseball with the boys without my arm giving out, as well as getting all my kids in the field together to catch balls.
It's been a great family gift."
Barb Genta
Berryville, VA

"I have never seen my boys enjoy themselves SO much and to think they are actually improving their game at the same time. I love the fact that I can do this with them."
-Kelly Vandegriff, Single mother of three baseball playing boys

"HI KIM, THE SLING PITCHER IS WORKING OUT GREAT!!!!!! I DO ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT, I BELIEVE IT IS PROBABLY THE MOST USER FRIENDLY MACHINE OUT THERE. I CANT WAIT TO GET THE SLING GUARD, MY BOYS ARE CHOMPING AT THE BIT FOR ME TO USE HARD BALLS."
KIM, THANKS AGAIN FOR A WONDERFUL PRODUCT
.......BARRY

Dear (Sling Pitcher);
"Just wanted to let you know I am thrilled with your product, the ability to be able to vary pitches instantly is a huge advantage over the conventional machines. I coach girls at the bantam level 15/16 and this unit is perfect. It used to be they were eager to be up for the pitches. Now its (also) "being" the pitcher.... I will be purchasing another one or two, and will inform my association that these are great units. Brilliant product."
Thanks again, Mike Crace
