JUGS mini3 Softball Pitching Machine: Professional Versatility in a Portable Design The JUGS mini3 Softball Pitching Machine brings elite-level training to any field with its compact, three-wheel design. Engineered specifically for softball, this machine utilizes a Select-A-Pitch dial to instantly toggle between seven different pitches, including risers, drop balls, and both right- and left-handed screwballs. By using three wheels instead of one or two, the mini3 provides superior ball contact and eliminates the need to manually rotate the machine when changing pitch types. Hitters benefit from the "Always see the ball" delivery system, which uses a black chute to provide a clear view of the ball from the machine to the hitting zone, improving timing and rhythm. Durability is a hallmark of this unit, featuring patented Grip-Tite 9-inch pneumatic tires designed to last up to 20 years without cracking or chunking. Beyond batting practice, the vertical and horizontal macro adjustment levers allow for full 360-degree rotation, making it easy to transition from high-velocity hitting drills to defensive practice with 250-foot fly balls. The integrated LCD readout ensures you always know your exact speed and pitch selection, while the included transport cart makes moving the machine between the dugout and the mound a simple, one-person task.
