"I got this launcher when the weather got cold, and I discovered my usual launcher was too small to pick up tennis balls encrusted with snow and ice. This hinged opening works like a charm!"

— Stephanie

"The ball gets stuck in it and just plops out going like maybe a foot. Very disappointing since I love Godog products so much"

Bottom Line

If you need a launcher for frozen tennis balls, this might work for you. However, if you expect better functionality and distance, you may want to consider other options
