I have one on order, ( backorder) and look forward to trying it out. I researched it pretty well and have been happy with what I have seen.

[@donnac1975]

Thank you for posting this review, this solidified our decision. We just purchased the bag. So excited and cannot wait until it arrives.

[@stevehoy1927]

how are you liking the bag. I just made a purchase and hoping to use for indoor practice this winter.

[@donnac1975]

I love the bag, it has so many variation, we are able to practice all kinds of different shots. @@stevehoy1927

[@universalrackets]

Good to hear you are enjoying it!

[@zimmzamm48]

Used mine for the first time today, better to start without the oscillator to learn how to get the perfect ball and spin. Then learn the oscillator. Thrilled with it so far (one time use). I was able to set the bag on the left sideline and have it throw a perfect dink to the opposite sideline, as well as top spin drives deep at me, and back spin drives at me…….If anyone comes up with stuff to do with it, please post links in replies.

[@universalrackets]

So awesome! Yes for sure I have had the Tennis version for the past 2 1/2 years… And to be honest, I have never used that oscillator once

[@jillsdancer]

Just got mine today…good to see your video. I’ll also post my first experiences!

[@universalrackets]

Let’s goo Jill! Looking forward to seeing it

[@mhamberg]

Great video. I just got one too and I *like* the blue fob so that I don't lose it in the sea of orange! :)

[@universalrackets]

thanks Mike, and ahh I would like if it wasn’t the exact same as the tennis one

[@universalrackets]

USE MY LINK TO PURCHASE PICKLEBALL SLINGER BAG: bit.ly/3YVxCAE

[@oceanstategolfacademy]

@Jill Stevenson Did you consider another brand before purchasing this model?

[@infomercialguy]

Great video. If you needed to plug it in to power it are you able to? In other words if there is no battery power left can you plug it in and use it? Thanks

[@puppiespickleball-wr8lr]

Hey Tyler! If purchased using your link though TeamHQS, does the warranty still apply or does it have to be purchased from Slinger directly (is TeamHQS considered an authorized Slinger retailer)?

[@universalrackets]

Yes warranty still applies B

[@kimleith1378]

Be curious when the battery life power starts to drop, the shots are inconsistent. My old Tutor does this. Also shooting a "flat" ball is something other machines don't do. Even setting them up on a table does not help. I would like a machine that set on the NVZ line, shoots a hard flat ball to drill blocks.

[@universalrackets]

This does flat slice and backspin. Love it so far

[@gayle-aka-ideaswoman]

It is called a cheat sheet. You should create it and sell it! Loved your video.

[@universalrackets]

Haha maybe :)

[@Vypermike]

Thanks you did what I needed to know. Now just to see how it work with me in wheelchair

[@DJPowell-Lefty]

Thinking bout ordering one but they are on backorder. Do you have any updates on this machine since this video is 10 months old?

[@universalrackets]

It’s the best! Use our link!

[@oceanstategolfacademy]

@mikehamberg Have you used other models & brands?

[@universalrackets]

No

[@evidencebased1]

My 2 cents. Would suggest gaining experience with a product before presenting it. I know you were giving a new owner perspective, but still think most people interested in purchase want to see how it is from an experienced user. Keep at your very good YT videos though, just a suggestion for this one.

[@universalrackets]

Noted!

[@kimseiniger]

Just got my slinger bag today. Can’t wait to get out and try it. I’m really looking forward to some tutorial lessons.

[@universalrackets]

Awesome! let us know how it goes!

[@pickleballdano]

Thinking about buying it but the customer service reviews on the company are pretty bad, especially when it comes to warranty or if issues happen down the road. Have you had an experience dealing with them directly for anything?

[@kimleith1378]

Sorry to hear that the customer service is lacking. Any specifics? The pickleball version just came out.

[@pickleballdano]

@@kimleith1378 just basically says that the company is incredibly hard to reach if there’s ever an issue with the product or with questions in general. But I posted something similar on a FB forum and a few people said they’ve had positive experiences.

[@universalrackets]

Yeah they are so so …. But very easy to replace parts

[@karenbarker9158]

How long does the battery last? And how many balls does it hold?

[@universalrackets]

Not sure exactly a lot and a long time! Would check out the slinger site for specifics

[@Diego_-]

does this machine works for Padel?

[@universalrackets]

Idk! Maybe

[@mikeoliver861]

To everyone who has had a slinger bag for a while, how has it held up? Is it reliable? Do the ball drive wheels break? Does it damage Pickleballs? I’d really appreciate some Intel. Thanks so much!

[@universalrackets]

it holds up amazing, would recommend getting the pro s1 balls. for softer balls it could warp them a bit. wheels and evyething is fine

[@mikehoyt7592]

it looks so wrong to me to put the controls where you're are putting your face right in front of the "muzzle"

[@universalrackets]

using it, it really does not matter... because 0f the beeps. it beeps 3 times until starts shooting

[@RTB-SanDiego]

The company does not provide it, no can I find anyone or anyplace that gives standard specifications, such as total weight (w/ battery and balls), as well as Ht x W x L; e.g., can it easily fit in my trunk? What gives?

[@universalrackets]

I am not sure why they don't specify it. However I have not had a problem and I have a hatchback...

[@stevemclaughlin6276]

Does it really hold 120 pickleballs?

[@universalrackets]

yes!

[@sharifmunshi]

Too slow ?

[@universalrackets]

Yes

[@user-gl1lr1td3c]

Tennis > Pickleball. Tennis is so much better, harder to learn but once you know how to play it it's just better :D

[@mperrotti05]

doubles in pickleball is def more fun.

[@sworks7124]

Horrible design to have all the buttons in front of the machine it can seriously hurt you.

[@universalrackets]

I think its amazing, and when you use it, you don't get affected like that

[@bretts5571]

Only retirees play pickleball lol

[@guittadabe5214]

Man, you are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo funny!

[@sweetcuteness456]

Your drops are horrible
