IMPORTANT
THE DEUCE PITCHING MACHINE THROWS REAL REGULATION BALLS;
HOWEVER, THE ACCURACY OF THE DEUCE DEPENDS ON THE QUALITY,
HARDNESS AND TYPE OF BALLS YOU USE IN THIS MACHINE!
HEATER SPORTS RECOMMENDS
USING HEATER PITCHING MACHINE BALLS IN THE
DEUCE MACHINE. THESE BALLS HAVE BEEN PRECISELY CRAFTED TO PROVIDE YOU
WITH HOURS OF ACCURATE, TROUBLE FREE BATTING AND FIELDING PRACTICE.
OTHER BRAND OF BALLS HAVE NOT BEEN TESTED IN THE DEUCE AND CANNOT BE
VALIDATED AS SUFFICIENT AND SAFE.
Heater Pitching Machine Balls
Heater Pitching Machine Balls are recommended for use with the Deuce Machine.
These balls are incredibly accurate, long lasting, and produce the fastest ball speed.
Regulation Leather Balls:
The Deuce Pitching Machine works well with real leather balls; however, accuracy will
vary more than with pitching machine balls because the seams on leather balls cause
the machine to pinch the ball differently on each pitch. Be sure and use real leather
balls, not simulated leather balls. Batters should be aware at all times.
KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH SIMULATED (SYNTHETIC) LEATHER COVERED BALLS . . .
Simulated (synthetic) leather balls:
Simulated leather balls are inexpensive seamed balls that don’t work well in the Deuce
Machine. During operation, portions of the simulated leather cover comes off the ball
and attaches to the wheels of the Deuce. Also, during operation, consumers have report-
ed seeing small puffs of smoke coming out of the Deuce. These puffs are not smoke, but
actual pieces of the simulated leather ball being turned into small dust particles as they
pitch out of the Deuce Pitching Machine.
IF BALLS GET WET, THEY WILL NOT PITCH PROPERLY UNTIL THEY DRY.
KNOWN FACTS ABOUT DIFFERENT BALLS:
The speed and accuracy of each pitch is dependent on the hardness, roundness, and
type of each ball used.
For example: If you have 12 balls and four are softer than the others (these balls will
throw lower than the other balls), if four are harder than the others (these balls will
throw higher than the other balls), and if four are not round (these balls will throw
inside and outside). THIS COULD LEAVE THE USER WITH THE IMPRESSION THAT THE
DEUCE PITCHING MACHINE IS INACCURATE WHICH IS NOT CORRECT.
