ACCURACY
Manyfactorscaneffecttheaccuracyofapitch.Inadditiontothe
obviousonesofmoistureandwind,thesize,weight/balanceand
wear elements of individual balls can also affect the speed and
repeatability of a pitch.
The Casey Pro 3G pitching machine will throw both regulation balls
andATECpracticeballs,liketheTuffy
®
and SuperSoft
®
. Practice
balls are recommended for their durability and more consistent pitch
accuracy over time.

consistent pitch accuracy and greater wear of the throwing wheels.

REGULATION “LEATHER” BALLS
Regulation leather balls can be used in pitching machines however
they will not pitch as consistent as a pitching machine ball and they
have a shorter lifespan. In addition they tend to transfer material
tothewheel(s)orthrowingpads.Thismaterialtransfermaycause
abuilduptodeveloponthethrowingsurfaces.Materialbuildup,if
leftun-checkedcanaffectperformanceofthepitchingmachinebut
canbecontrolledbyremovingitwith#60sandpaperoremerycloth.
This should be done on an “as needed” basis at the time the material
buildup is detected.
A variety of Ball Feeders
are available for your
