Product Overview
The Bownet 8' Hitting Cube forms a protective barrier around a hitter so players, coaches, and bystanders are shielded from foul balls and stray liners during batting practice. Its enclosed design lets a batter step inside the cube and swing without worrying about hitting teammates running other drills nearby.
Construction relies on BOW poles and a powder-coated steel frame fitted with non-marking rubber feet, giving the cube stability and traction on both indoor and outdoor surfaces. Bownet's Energy Absorption System helps the netting diffuse the impact of hard-hit balls, reducing rebound while keeping the frame upright.
The cube measures 8 ft. x 8 ft. x 8 ft. and weighs 50 lbs., with the full set including the net with nylon cover, frame, composite BOW poles, ground stakes, and 2 replaceable baffles. Everything packs into a 52 in. x 16 in. x 10 in. wheeled bag for easy transport and storage, and a single person can set it up in about 90 seconds with no tools required.
