Where Training Starts – The Original Iron Mike™
Great hitting starts with great timing. A batter must carefully watch the pitcher’s arm and the release of the ball to learn when to load up, start a swing, and shift their weight at just the right moment.
Especially for younger batters, an arm-style machine is still the best way to develop that critical sense of timing with every pitch. It’s realistic motion lets them practice the same fundamentals in the cage as they’ll use on the field. That's why our Iron Mike™ machines belong in every training routine – and are often the first choice of professional players and coaches worldwide.
Pitching Machines
With its heavily built frame and mechanically simple design, the Iron Mike™ has proven to have the lowest operating cost of any machine on the market. While wheel-type machines often start at a lower price, they require added accessories like ball feeders, and have more expensive parts that can fail. When properly maintained, which is very easy to learn and do on your own, our machines have been known to last for decades.
"I like the arm machines because you see the arm and anticipate. Master Pitching Machine makes a great arm machine.”
– Ted Williams, from Disciple of a Master
