If you are on a quest to be an amazing ballplayer, having iron mike pitching machines would be a great choice. These machines are heavy duty and very durable and simple to use. These machines are able to accept leather balls and pitch dimple baseballs. In addition, a remote control also comes with these machines for easier control and navigation. The Pro Hopper Fed (MP-4) and Basic Hopper Fed (MP-6) models are some of the best iron mike pitching machines today.
These models are amazing because they can hold and pitch a capacity of 600 baseballs or 400 softballs. The pro model is more expensive though, because it has more features and has a wider variety of functionality. In the pro model, there is a 55-pound steel reinforcement which is wielded at the front region of the unit. This provides protection so as to ensure the durability and effectiveness of the machine in pitching accurately. The pro model also offers a positive feed mechanism which prevents interruptions during ball pitching most especially when using leather seamed balls. However, if you are using dimple baseballs only, having this mechanism is not required. Hopper fed models are also more preferred by many because you can load a large number of balls and in 5 seconds, you are ready to go.
