Pro Performance Zip-N-Hit Pro Baseball Trainer Endorsed by Derek Jeter

Perfect for newcomers to the game or those who want to improve growing skills, the Pro Performance Zip-N-Hit Pro acts like a portable batting cage, allowing batters to improve their swing almost anywhere. Players can improve hitting skills while increasing bat speed, as well as learning "top half" hitting while increasing bat speed. It's great for practicing hitting pitches of different speeds and movements. It comes with an attachment clip and strap, for easy attachment almost anywhere, and is suitable for ages 7 and up. It's also an effective training device for high school and collegiate use.

Customer Review: Great for odd reasons
The team my 9-year-old boy is on uses these in practice and will even take some swings on them during the games. His coach also uses them with his 13 year olds team. Not saying the zip and hit is the reason why, but my boy's team has only lost 1 game in over 3 years of baseball, including fall ball. So it's not a bad team, and they use it quite extensively. At home we have the Hit-Away baseball mounted to a pole and it works great. But, I can't really take it with us. So, we picked up the zip and hit. Now, when the wife goes in the grocery store, we park far enough out for me and the boy to attach it to the back of the vehicle and take some swings in the parking lot. When we go to a Red's game or a Florence Freedom game, it's a big hit in the parking lot there as well. I coach 3 soccer teams year round and the boy and me can squeeze some hitting in between games. So just for the portability alone, this thing gets 5 stars in my book. Also, about the review stating his kid now swings over the ball because it doesn't drop like real pitches would. You can make it drop using several different techniques that are described in the directions that come with it. After you get his confidence back up, you might be able to give it another try.
Customer Review: Worth the money, but a quality a little iffy
I bought this for my son when he was 9 years old. We attach it to the baseketball hoop and go to town! It REALLY helps warm up the swing and hand/eye coordination. The cord can fray pretty easily, we replaced ours after about a year. Comes with a second cord though. I can't pitch to save my life so this was a huge help to me. And I didn't have to run after the ball when it was hit. This also helped my son from dropping his back shoulder too much. If he swings below the string he knows he's dropped his shoulder. The only thing I don't like... You really have to hold the string TIGHT so that your knuckles don't get smacked with the ball. That's a little bit of a problem for my little ones to use it together.
