Product Overview
JUGS Bulldog 12 in. poly softballs are constructed from tough polyethylene material engineered to withstand high-rep training sessions, lasting up to 30% longer than comparable polyballs. Their uniform hole design ensures consistent, accurate flight when fired from a pitching machine, making them a reliable choice for repeated batting practice.
These softballs are specifically designed for close-range use with nearly any JUGS pitching machine and are safe for both indoor and outdoor training environments. The Optic Game-Ball Yellow color improves visibility for hitters tracking pitches during drills and live swings.
Suited for a wide range of skill levels, from backyard players and youth leagues to high school and college programs, the balls are sold per dozen for convenient bulk training use.
