Hey. I bought one used 3-4 years ago, made by wiseball, a brazilian brand. The battery gets short-lived quickly. Buy one with a power supply unit, and you'll be very satisfied. Paid 6000 BRL back then. A new PSU is around 1000 BRL now. I personally think it's worth it.

@@IntuitiveTennis thank you, not bad at all. I seriously thinking about buying because it has a variety of different options, like the speed and the slicing abilities. Thank you Nick.

[@mattrock2491]

great video. What settings are you using for the lob ? I either get it too low or too high. When fiddling with the speeds I get either a ball that comes down too fast ( top spin ) or too low.

[@Mrdezmiki]

The size of it makes total sense. If you've ever taken apart a traditional ball machine you will realize how much dead space there is in there.

[@TheRedStateBlue]

they want a thousand damn dollars for a little portable machine that shoots tennis balls... if it cost more than a hundred bucks to build, i'd be shocked.

[@Shaunsweeney-Kubach71]

I just ordered the Slinger bag, and I am waiting for it to be delivered. I like the ball machine you are using, it’s smaller one, and I like that my friend. I use both hands on my backhand volley, my left hand has been surgically repaired and I had to learn how to play tennis right handed. Great job on the video Coach Nick you are the best my friend.

[@sonicmilk]

I have a Slinger Bag, it's good for the value but it's a POS imo. They break and have cheap electronics. I had to repair my bag after two years. You can get good practice with them thought and my SB absolutely helped me improve.

[@hzambran]

Slinger doesn't do lobs and the topspin is artificial, that's all you can do@@sonicmilk

[@sfowler1100]

The slinger is no not the greatest ..only does topspin… and 45 Mph… at the highest setting it’s college level spin. Super Cool features and looks Good but very very flawed. If someone promotes it they are a paid sponsor.

[@Shaunsweeney-Kubach71]

@@sfowler1100 I am not to impressed with the machine, the balls get stuck, and the remote control already needs batteries, but for 650.00 the price is right for practicing volleys, overheads and return of serves. I posted videos of myself hitting off the machine and I am very honest with my review, because I am not sponsored by the Slinger company and I am able to criticize the machine for not being able to properly shoot balls consistently. The spin is sick on the machine and it’s great for tuning up on the ground strokes and volleys as I stated before.

[@sonicmilk]

For what it’s worth my slinger bag broke again. Have had it for three years. If I were to do it over again I’d go for the tennis tutor. They are built to last.

[@kenttalcott8428]

Great video on how to use a ball machine. Originally purchased a Spinfire machine so my wife ( a beginner) and I (USTA 4.0) could play together. It has been great allowing both of us to get quality practice time and mitigates the disparity in our abilities and really reduces the down time of picking up balls every 30-40 seconds. Have also found the ball machine great when demo'ing new racquets. You could create a few videos just on this topic and usage of a ball machine. No better way to compare racquets than comparing feeling and performance with similar feeds. Could do the same thing with different strings at different tensions. While a ball machine is not a substitute for playing sets and matches I find myself using it more and more on my solo practice time. The Nisplay looks like a great machine, especially at that price point. We really love our SpinFire. It is much more expensive but has double the capacity and has a few vertical and horizontal patterns which I use about 70% of the time. Not as compact as the Nisplay. Ours has the remote battery as well and a remote controller is a must saving so much time allowing you to adjust the machine on the fly. The best machine is whatever you can afford and whatever fits into your trunk. Lots of good choices right now.

[@IntuitiveTennis]

🙌

[@tesladiesel2420]

I hate this machine with a passion! The hardware itself (motors, battery pack, switches, case etc) is great. The biggest gripe I have is with the remote controller and how unintuitive it is to use. Once you turn on the machine (flipping the switch to the ON position on the panel) the feeder will beep once, it will wait 5sec, then it will just get possessed and start feeding balls like a moron. If you are impatient, you will certainly hit the button on the remote. (In hopes of stopping the feed) This action will make it worse in that, you lose track of when it’s OFF when it’s ON, and this just will just start feeding on its own. Once you manage to get a rhythm and have this thing feed, now the task will be to, either pause it, or turn it OFF using the remove (in your pocket) Pressing the remote once will result in an audible beep. This would tell the user the feeder has stopped - however, it is not the case with the Nisplay. You press the controller, you hear the beep, then you wait 5 sec because the ball machine wants to make a point on letting you know who the real boss is and will spit one more ball at you - just in case, you know… When this happens, your first reaction will be to press the controller again. By doing so, you have just turned it back on. By this time I am ready to stump on it. Btw, the “transistor” remote comes with a nice collapsible 1970’s style antenna lol! Works without extending it but still… an antenna? Really? Additional notes: and this may not be the machine itself: when it rains out there (Boca Raton Fl) the wet balls won’t launch. Will experience failure to feed / eject, will get stuck inside between the wheels, it’s a PITA to remove the balls. Tried various different balls, all with the same (wet test) result. Btw, I use this when working with my Jr. 4-5X per week, usually 45-90 min sessions. (Focusing on technical stuff) One positive feedback: the Li-ion battery lets us run 4-5 sessions without recharge. When temps drop low 60’s it will do 3 days then you have to recharge. (Charges fairly quick)

[@mattrock2491]

wow , you are really getting frustrated with the machine. I don't have any issues with the feeder of the machine. You set the feeder timer ( how often the machine sends a ball, setting between under 1 second to 10 seconds ), go to the other side, press the remote and a single beep will indicate that the machine will start feeding ball. To stop you just press the remote again and the machine will respond with 2 audible beeps to indicate that it will stop feeding. The remote looks like a 70's remote with a collapsible antenna but who cares ? On the instructions it clearly says to NOT use the machine in wet conditions and when it's raining.

[@tesladiesel2420]

@@mattrock2491 my expectations would be; when hitting the remote - to stop feeding, I want to hear an auditable beep, and no - more - balls. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case. Once you hear the beep, it will still fire 2X balls at you. I was able to figure this out fairly quick and now take it as a feature and work around the issue. If I had to do it again I’d probably get the slinger bc it has the ability to feed almost vertically with little pace on the ball, as opposed to blasting it - while, and based on reviews the controller is also drama free. I’d press for start and 1x press for stopping the feed. No random misfires in between lol

[@luyin1961]

Have you tried Hydrogen Proton? I am a little surprised that you call this one the best. I would probably get this one if Proton is not available. The best thing about and Proton is that they are both small/convenience. Had bigger/fancier ball machines that ended up collecting dust in the garage.

Lobster machines are proven. Not a fan of the fold up walls. Metal is better than plastic, but a fixed hopper is less of a pain. Don't care for external batteries and external sweep function. Lobster is about the best overall ball machine, in my opinion. We own a bunch of these and use them for practice.

Really wish I could afford my own ball machine. Maybe some day. The club does have one, but it's... well. It's huge, needs to be plugged in, weighs a ton and can only really be used on one particular indoor court. The settings are also super finicky. Setting it up at the baseline, the slowest possible interval sends the next ball about when the first one crosses the net. The fastest interval pumps out three balls a second. (Not an exaggeration! Actually three per second!) I have no idea who decided on this range, but I want a word with them. With the way it functions (spinny disk with holes under the hopper) I can apply some tape to halve the interval, and that's usually what I do. Still, it's not very fun to use and I wish I could use one outside...
