Great!+❤️+

I read Amazon reviews advocating this device as a dog toy, but I would strongly recommend against it if you have a large or determined breed. Despite being made of impressively hard rubber, my bloodhound made short work of this ball; she transformed it into a pile of bite-sized rubble in less than fifteen minutes.

When I was young, I had great hand eye coordination. As I've aged, I've noticed a tendency to spill things easier and to bump my hand (HARD) against the tops of open drawers etc. So I've adapted this reaction ball to improve my actions and reactions wherever, but mostly in the kitchen. I kneel in front of my couch so that the couch will catch the ball if I miss and I don't waste energy chasing it. I started out bouncing it off the carpet, but now bounce it off a wood stool. I've gotten a lot better, even catching wild balls with one hand. And it has transferred into my daily life, which was the entire point. Well, not the entire point -- it's fun.

I bought this for my son and little league team. When i coach, i love to do pop flies and grounders when working on our fielding. I have wanted to try this for a while and finally grabbed one. The build of this is really nice, it's a hard rubber. If you throw it on the floor, it will bounce about a foot or two. Being rubber, it shouldn't crack, but it is hard enough to take a real beating(i would never bat with this). I don't expect this to break unless abused on purpose like batting. It throws fine if you are mixing it up with pop flies, but this all about grounders. It does a good job and ricocheting different directions. Now it goes fairly straight, don't think it will hit and the bounce 90% making it impossible to field, but it moves 10-20 degrees left/right/and up, making the kids move their feet and adjust. I used to just throw a ball left or right of my players but they would see that coming. With this, i can throw it right at them and still have it go either way, which is the best for their reactions to simulate the ball hitting dirt and holes on the field. If you have a child and are serious about their abilities, for the price, you shouldn't not have one of these.

Seems to be made of durable material, but didn’t have the bounce I was hoping for to for the softball team to practice with.
