1-Attach adjustable top strap |
 |
 |
Find and secure a suitable hitting
area, pole, tree, etc. with approximately 12 feet around pole.
(Do not attach to any street signs.) |
|
|
2-Attach adjustable bottom strap |
 |
 |
Attach hook and loop enclosure
straps approximately 4 feet apart. Top strap should be
approximately 4 feet apart. Top strap should be approximately 5'
to 6' from bottom of pole and bottom strap should be
approximately 2' from bottom of pole. |
|
|
3-Stance and Positioning |
 |
|
Pull ball away from pole and
adjust the height of the balls hitting position. To raise ball
to your desired hitting height, push one cord up out of ball
(figure 1). With the opposite cord, pull the cord back into
ball to get rid of the excess cord (figure 2). Push the sleeve
closer to ball to hide the excess cord (figure 3). |
|
|
4-Adjustable hitting height |
 |
 |
Stand far enough away from pole to
hit the ball near the thick end of the bat. If the bat can
reach beyond the adjustment sleeve, you're too close - move
back. |
|
| 5-Toss
ball toward imaginary pitcher! |
 |
 |
Wind the ball once around pole and
set home plate down (not included) and fully extend cord so that
ball is over the center of the plate. |
|
| 6-Hit
it! |
 |
Throw ball towards imaginary
pitcher (ball will wrap around pole 4 or 5 times). Wait for
ball to unwind 3 to 4 times and hit ball. Optimal hitting
occurs on third unwinding. (if cord unwinds completely, do not
hit the ball: catch it and start over).
Keep hitting as ball returns. The harder you hit, the faster it
comes back to you. Vice Versa. (Do not step towards pole after
hitting.)
