Yes it certainly ruins them almost instantly. The become misshaped,warped and loped sided. They launch very sporadically and wild after one or two pitches. Making them unreliable for testing speed and distance for setting the machine
You should bring it closer. You can run motor slower but the shorter distance will mimic a faster pitch due to reaction time. Also closing the gap will slightly help with accuracy.
We used it a few more times after that and it worked well. We have not used it since the fire. The machine was saved as well as the legs but the automatic feeder burned and we have yet to replace it.
And how does it do with the synthetic balls ive heard they ruin them but that’s all I have
