5.0 out of 5 stars Very durable, strike zone has numbers not shown., May 5, 2010

This pitching screen is very durable. It's heavy material and can be left hanging outside in the weather. The bottom has drain holes. The grommets are double stitched and will hold up over time. I did not purchase the frame to hang in as you can hang it from any fencing with bungy cords.

It is not pictured but the inside "strike zone" is numbered in squares of 1 through 6. This way you can really get your pitchers to hone in on certain areas. My 9 year old uses it and only aims for the 3-6 boxes because his batters will be shorter. My older son practices his curve ball by aiming at number 1 and then seeing if it drops to number 6.

Screen is pretty heavy so you'll need two people to hang properly. On bad weather days, it hangs in the garage from the garage door framing and they can still practice pitching. You'll need to purchase your own bungy cords.

I could not catch for my very strong 14 year old aspiring pitcher, he threw so hard it hurt my hand and my knees would hurt. This is a perfect option and he enjoys being able to throw as hard as he can.

My fault for being a visual person. I thought we were getting the stand with this. However, why show the stand if that's not what your selling.
