By decent speed, do you mean balls/second or the time it takes for the balls to get from the shooter to the trailer? (Line drives sure would be fun to watch!) We are firing at about 4 balls/second.

We shoot a line drive, and can get 12 feet. The time I was talking about is balls per second. Im not sure how many balls per second we will get because we havent finished the shooter/ball delivery yet. Our shooter wont have any problems getting the balls out.
