Pocket Radar Ball Coach PR1000 Bc Radar Gun (3 Items)

Using this for pickleball. Had trouble using it indoors-the radar I read can bounce around especially on metal walls. Outside it works great but for something as light as a pickleball, you really need no wind which is rare. Easy to use, easy to figure out the modes, nice stand, all around great quality.

Ball Coach with blue button is outstanding... works even better than i expected.. compare with a thousand dollar gun. Several years ago I tried pocket radar with red button at battng cage several times. First generation unit not consistant and difficult to use. Ball Coach blue button is outstanding. See last paragraph for negative comment. My grandson is 15U catcher on travel team. Saw reviews and decided to take a chance. I would highly recommend. Tried Ball Coach behind L screen, behind wire fence at ball field, even slight angle. One of grandson's friend is a pitcher. Using high priced gun, he threw between 75 and 78 with fastball Ball Coach gave same reading. This will be a great to encouage long toss and increase arm strength. Just as a stopwatch helps imporve 30 and 60 yard times, the Ball Coach will give players a way to measure progress. Recall and continous mode work perfect. My grandson has POP time of 1.95 and calls pitches. Bought this for helping him impove POP time over the winter when only indoor facilities with 90 foot cages are available. Will be good for him learning change up for different pitchers he catches. Great for measuring ball exit speed and one of the five tools which is throwing speed. Focus Tripod is a piece of junk. Don't get discourage when you open box. I almost sent everything back...Glad I didn't..... I have very good 35mm tripod and used this with tripod attachment. Worked great. I requested new tripod. Will update if company sends replacement.....RECEIVED REPLACEMENT..COMPANY REPLACED BROKEN TRIPOD..OUTSTANDING SERVICE

Dry accurate and easy to operate

Easy setup and able to use right out of the box.

experienced some difficulties with operation at first. however it is functioning good and I'm pleased. only setback is the ball exit speed reading are sometimes sporadic. The radar picks up the pitched ball velocity and sometimes does not catch the exit ball velocity from the bat. overall nice equipment. I would recommend the produce to teams looking for data to share with the players for improvement.

Wanted one forever, and jumped on it for black Friday deal. Has helped track my daughters progress. And with the tripod and re-chargeable batteries, it was a great deal.

I am very happy with my Pocket Radar Ball Coach. It provides extremely consistent readings. Now, I have not yet been able to compare its performance against one of the extremely expensive radar guns, so I cannot comment on the accuracy. However, I did have a chance to compare it against a $100 Bushnell model and it was not even close. Whereas the Pocket Radar Ball Coach was consistent pitch after pitch....that is to say if a pitcher was throwing his fastball and the speed showed as 84, the next fastball showed maybe 83 or 85, but never more that a couple of mph different from the previous pitch. The Bushnell, on the other hand, was all over the place. The only thing consistent about it was that it was consistently low. While the PRBC was showing, say, 82, 82, 83, 84, 84 on five consecutive fastballs, the Bushnell read 71, 63, 75, 44, and 58. Completely unreliable. After a few pitches, the coach threw the Bushnell down and relied on my readings for the rest of the tryouts. As to the price, this package is a phenomenal bargain. For essentially the same price as the PRBC alone, you get all these extra goodies, and let me tell you, if you are going to be using this for more than a pitch or two, you certainly want to have a tripod and the spring mount for the top. When you are not using the PRBC, it's great for iPhones and other smartphones to take pictures or movies. I am a HUGE fan of this package. Could not be happier.

It’s nice to have an idea of how hard the boys are throwing and how hard the ball is coming off the bat.

Muy preciso a la hora de marcar la velocidad
