    My two cents

    Maybe I can get piled up on like the last time I posted something about speed. This kid from Daniel I have clocked myself at 68.9 that is the quickest I have ever clocked college, high school or travel ball. A little while back (2 years?) I gave 66 on a 14U pitcher that wasn't in high school yet and most called me an idiot etc because they hadn't heard of the kid. She committed to Alabama after her Fr season. I also mentioned the kid from Daniel throwing 60+ at the same time in 12U. Both of these kids are high caliber D1. Point is it isn't always necessary to rip someone who could know what they are talking about if you haven't seen the kid for yourself. I also know there are people that claim 70+ and when I check its more like 56.

    Also hope the claims are true. The way girls are tearing the ball up a few good flame throwers may help.

    ???



    That's interesting......
    All JUGS radar guns are manufactured by Jugsports,
    based out of Tualatin, Oregon.

    Stalker is a totally separate company, and manufactured in Plano Texas...

    The best, by far, are the guns manufactured by Decatur Electronics, based in Decatur Il.

    you people should step outside of north carolina a little more often and like jacket said....stop ripping just because you havent seen it. Carley Hoover pitches in the high 60s and will be a soph in high school.....the fact that you people dont believe it doesnt change the fact that it is true.

    when she commits to a major D1 school i will be the first to tell you about it.

    Is this the kid that played for the Crush last year? If so, we've seen her a couple times over the past 2 years. I know the kid I'm thinking of was named Carly.

    You want to check that out

    Decatur made guns for jugs prior to this year. Stalker makes the new ones. You research enough and you will figure it out. Also if you look around the major leagues will see more Stalkers than any other brand and they can afford whatever they want.

    That is correct.

    Joined Southern Force out of GA in the fall. ASA Nationals she was hitting 66. She started with a new pitching coach in the fall and brought her up even more by school ball. Carley is 6-1 now.

    Speed is overrated! I've seen some mighty slow pitchers shut down some mighty strong teams!

    Accurate location and movement!
