Lol I got in trouble for taking my kid out of school early once a week to use the batting cage. I said it was physical therapy but eventually the teacher found out. Those were great days just chilling and bullshiting at the cage. We'd get slurpees afterwards. By 4:00 the highschool kids show up and dominate the cages.
some of the most satisfying moments of my life were raising my hand during the middle of 8th period calculus and telling my teacher, who was kind of a nut, that I needed to leave to go play golf. the daggers in his eyes were priceless.

Fuck me. So I cleaned out a 16x56' space in the back of my property, laid down ground cover and artificial turf, and got most of a structure up for the netting. I bought the net and I got a killer deal on a nice pitching machine. Getting the net up and rigging lines was more complicated than I expected. My neighbor was also ticked off and my wife thinks it looks ugly, especially if I put a cover over the top. I'm using 3 Costco carports that I connected together for the frame and I can easily put a canopy cover on but it will not look very pretty. I have zero fucking time for this.
Yes, you are right I should put in my own batting cage.
