I help coach baseball and softball. This is a great tool to use to show the kids where to visualize the ball being. Quick easy set up on top of a T. Nice part about it is, it is so light and easy to set up there is no need for directions. You can have one ball on the T, and then use one of the Marruci mounts, or use both mounts and have 3 balls and tell the kid to take the bat to the top, middle, and bottom so they get a feel for the hand and arm placement. After repeating bringing their bat to the balls a few times, they can swing through the ball into the net. The stacker has strings that go around the pole or the T so they stay put as the balls launch into the hitters net. The product comes with a small carrying case that is great for keeping the stacker all together in your gear bag. It is also a mesh net bag so the strings attaching the plastic stackers can have air to dry out if you use it and the grass is wet. The product has mostly been used indoors so far this season, but I have noticed with softballs stacked 3 high take more effort to balance compared to baseballs in a flat gym service. Not sure how well that will work outside at the ball field with uneven surfaces, and wind blowing from whatever direction. That is the reason for my 4 star review and not a 5 star review. The weight of the softballs makes it challenging, but doable to stack 3 balls for practice.
