Batting Cage Review: Do You Need a Batting Cage Net?

Do You Need a Batting Cage Net?
By Guest Author Peter S. Smith

Baseball batting cage nets is something that even if you don't realize initially is very essential so that batting practice can be carried out more efficiently. The basic job of this kind of a cage net of course is nothing but to capture a ball that the hitter misses once he or she is pitched at. Even though this task of the cage net might seem more or less simple, imagine what one would have to do if this cage net were not used during a practice.

Every time the hitter who is trying very hard to get better at their game through practice misses a ball he would have to wait till someone goes around looking for the ball. Usually, these balls are pitched at very high speeds and with a lot of force so one can only expect the ball to have disappeared somewhere far off. Moreover, if you are not practicing on a field but instead in your backyard can you imagine the lengths one or more people would have to go to in order to find that ball that flew off.

So this is the biggest problem that you would face if you were not using baseball batting cage nets for your practice. If you do instead use such nets you will be able to go ahead with smooth practicing. You will not have to worry about missing pitches and then waiting till the ball is found. And of course not just any net would do for this, a lot of force and a lot of strength such a net would have to endure.

Batting Cages Tips from BaseballTips.com

Any player fortunate enough to have a backyard batting cage and pitching machine is at a distinct advantage over any player who doesn't... It's that simple!
This great idea seems to cross every parent's mind .until reality sets in! The problem, in many cases, seems to be the amount of permanent space that it takes up . and the costs to build one!

Until recently, this was your only choice. We have now teamed up with some very creative baseball "garage engineers" to offer you portable batting cages!

They range in size from 50 ft to 70 ft long, are high and wide enough, AND they actually can be moved around lawn mowers and stored during the offseason! PLUS.They range in price from $670 to $1,120!

So what's the catch? The catch is simply that portable cage kits are lighter weight and include everything but the steel cage legs.

Lighter weight? Think about how permanent batting cages are built and you'll see where I'm going.

Permanent batting cages generally are built with 1 1/2 inch diameter steel tubing. Over the course of 50 ft to 70 ft long cages, this is hundreds of pounds of steel. Steel sleeves are first cemented into holes that you dig and cement in, every 14-15 feet around the cage perimeter. After the cement has dried, you come back and build "the erector set". then you hang the net. Now you have one great and very permanent batting cage. Cost is $1200-$2000 depending on size, quality and what you might have done on the cheap or made by yourself.

Portable cages are made from 3/4 inch steel and lighter weight netting. This makes it, quite literally, lighter weight but not too light to be impractical.

Steel Cage Legs? Instead of our shipping you 10 ft. long, 1 1/2 inch diameter steel legs (which are cheap and very heavy), we are going to send you to any local hardware or building supply store like Home Depot or Lowe's. Here you will purchase inexpensive 10 ft lengths of 3/4 inch EMT conduit tubing. This becomes a huge savings on shipping alone!

So, imagine a player simply walking out to his backyard, grabbing his bat and swinging until dark....Hundreds more swings than he could possibly ever get otherwise, and thousands more swings than the rest of his teammates.

Then imagine you could get this done for a reasonable amount of money while retaining the use of your backyard.

That's the concept behind our portable cage kits.

The Utility of the Portable Batting Cages and Pitching Machines

The Utility of the Portable Batting Cages and Pitching Machines
By Harry S. Sampley

With the growing popularity of baseball and softball most of the coaches find it difficult to be able to cater to training needs of all the teenagers and adults wanting to be trained in this sport. To facilitate mass training the coaches and organizations have to utilize the pitching machines and batting cages.

While the commercial pitching machine is able to facilitate the training of teams, the batting cage makes sure that the players don't have to run around behind the ball when they should actually be spending time in practicing batting.

Both the pitching machines and batting cages come in a lot of different varieties and price ranges and depending on the preference of the buyer, he or she can be sure to have a wide variety of options within his/her budget.

For those who travel frequently it is always better to go in for the portable versions of these equipments. Moreover the utility of the machine is actually beneficial when people buy these machines after keeping in mind whether these pieces of equipment would be used for personal or commercial use.

While people finding it exciting to buy the machine and cage by looking through them in a store, buying them online can help people get additional discounts and save them a lot of money. However, people buying these products online have to make sure that they are well-versed with the quality and durability of these products and manufacturers so that their not being able to touch and feel the material does not amount to their buying low grade equipment.
