Rawlings Hitstick Baseball/Softball Swing Trainer

i liked how you could be far enough away from the ball to practice swinging. i did not like how heavy it is for the younger kids that are 6 and 7. older kids that have more upper body strenght and control its a great tool to have for baseball practice.

Great batting fundamental work. I used this as a kid but still is great work for my kids.

Arrived on time and they seem sturdy! Won't use until the spring!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently received the Rawlings Hitstick Baseball/Softball Swing Trainer from Influenster in exchange for my honest review. I have been impressed with this Hitsticks effectiveness in improving my hitting technique. The double-sided design allows me to practice both baseball and softball swings, making it a great investment for players of both sports. The wrist strap provides additional control and support, allowing me to focus on my swing mechanics without worrying about the trainer slipping out of my hands. The Hitstick has helped me develop a more consistent swing, and the instant feedback it provides has been invaluable in identifying areas for improvement. I've been using the Hitstick for a few days now, and I've already seen significant improvements in my hitting. It's perfect for practicing multiple strike zones and pitches, and the fact that I don't have to worry about picking up balls after each rep has saved me a lot of time. However, I'm deducting a star because the Hitstick isn't without its flaws. The ball return mechanism can be a bit temperamental, and I've had to adjust it a few times to get it working smoothly. Additionally, the stick itself could be more durable - I've noticed some wear and tear after regular use. Overall, I recommend the Rawlings Hitstick Baseball/Softball Swing Trainer to any hitter looking to take their game to the next level. It's a versatile and effective training tool that's sure to help you become a better hitter. *Rating:* 4/5 stars _Pros:_ Effective training aid, versatile, instant feedback, helps improve swing consistency _Cons:_ Ball return mechanism can be finicky, stick could be more durable

this item helped my granddaughter hitting improve drastically.

The product seemed to be OK other than it was advertised as a baseball type on one in and a softball option on the other end and when it arrived and ride with only baseball option since I have daughters and granddaughters, we weren't able to use the baseball option so I had to return it

we got this thinking it would be perfect since we have both ball players. we were pretty disappointed when it was just the baseball half with a handle rather that the double sided soft/base ball as shown.

was not as pictured or described. Its one sided for baseball with a red handle on the other side.
