PowerNet Weighted Baseballs for Hitting Training, Baseball Training Equipment for Throwing & Batting, Build Muscle & Strength, 6 Balls 2.8" 12-20 oz

Ok, for starters:1. The TCB 74 balls are a bit bigger than the 2.8" PowerNet balls. As depicted in the attached photo. The 74 TCB is also lighter in weight 14oz vs the PowerNet 2.8"16oz balls.2, the red vs high vis color; PowerNet 2.8" is red vs the TCB 74 yellow/green is more high vis. Making the later easier to find in dark shadows.3. The PowerNet 2.8" 16oz balls have a solid feel, none of that something flopping around inside the ball thing going on. That makes the TCB 74 a bit fussy at sitting on hitting T without falling off.PowerNet 2.8" balls, whats to like:1. A much better price.2. Durability, after a year use in practice and pre game warm ups. These weighted hitting balls hold up great.3. The color, small diameter and feedback. Helps 10-U through HS age hitters focus on good bat to ball contact, driving bat sweet spot through the ball, and follow through.Summary:In the event you are one that feels they must spend top dollar on equipment. The TCB 74 weighted balls are for you. However, if you are frugal minded and want to get a great product at an affordable price. That works just as well or maybe better than the high price option. The PowerNet weighted balls are the best ban for a buck. Additionally, the PowerNet balls are available in several sizes.

The training balls have really helped my son swing through the ball. He is keeping his eye on the ball better, concentrating more, and trying to hit the next one farther than the last one. Since they don't fly far, we can finally have batting practice in my small backyard, which is great because we don't have any parks nearby.The construction has held up to a month's worth of practices, and they still look like they're in great shape (a little scuffed up from wear, but that's to be expected). I really think these are a great addition to BP, and can be used by tossing from the front, side, or back of the player, and also with a tee.I can see why these have become so popular. All of the dads and coaches have asked me where I got them, and I have pointed them to Amazon to buy these because the PowerNet balls are a considerably better value than the competition.

Great product! PowerNet offers weighted balls at different weight options. I purchased the 2.8 14 oz green balls for young 7 yr old son who loves baseball. These balls are great for practicing throwing, batting, and even doing strengthening exercises. The balls are the size of a baseball and can be used for batting practice to strength forearm/wrist strength and hand speed. I tend to put them on a batting tee, soft toss, and pitch. I went with PowerNet becuase they offered different weight options than other manufacturers. Highly recommend this product for all ages. Just remember to get the lightest balls for the younger kids to prevent injury and always follow proper body mechanics when working with kids under 12 yrs old. Balls came with a nice pouch for storage and nicely wrapped. A must have for baseball athletes!

Great product! Have been using this balls everyday for about two weeks. I have noticed a big change in my 10 and 8 year olds' swings. They drive through the ball much better and they finish there swing. Great for adding power to your player''s swing.One thing you have to be careful with, or at least I had to be careful with, is my kids started modifying their swing so they could hit the balls farther. They started straightening their front arm. Mixing up 6 swings with the heavy balls to about 20 with regular balls really helped mitigate the problem.The balls are great for soft toss, hitting off the tee, or short front toss. They don't go very far so they're also great in limited space areas.The one con and the reason they don't get 5 stars is the bright color. I understand they are color coded by weight. I believe white balls to match regular balls would work better. Maybe even some red laces painted on them. This would allow you to switch back and forth between heavy balls and regular balls with out the hitter being able to easily distinguish between the two.Great tool. And as of now, great duribility.

My brother has used these in the past with his son (7-8 age) and their travel baseball team. The results from using the weighted balls is out of this world. The follow through that the kids showed after just one practice using these balls was amazing. I purchased these for use of my 5-6 year old team that I currently coach. After just one session with some of the boys last weekend, they were driving the ball much more consistently off the bat and in to the field of play. This is a MUST HAVE for any first year coach starting out. When teaching kids the mechanics of a good swing, follow through is on that list. This tool, with its immediate feedback at contact is a no brainer. I can't wait to get back on the field with my boys and use these again. Granted, we use other tools to help the boys with their mechanics, this has to be one of my favorites for getting power in their swings. A++++++++++++++ all the way around.
