BILLIE JEAN KING'S Eye Coach Tennis Training Aid - Practice on a Moving Ball in Your Own Home, No Court Needed, No Ball Pickup - Junior, Pro, and Family Models, for Kids, Adults

I've never had another tool that improved my tennis students' stroke than this. 10x faster improvement. You know whether or not you hit through the ball when the ball fully falls forward, you can feel when you hit in the center of the racket, you can tell if you are swinging up into the ball hitting the holder itself.It helps every student recognize quickly what they consistently do and what to improve. Highly Recommend for any tennis player or coach

The Billie Jean King's Eye Coach has been amazing for my kid who has been training with the eye coach at home. Taking the court out of the picture has enabled them to focus on their contact point, timing, and accuracy. (This is especially true because there's no temptation to immediately pop up and see where the ball went.)The Eye Coach provides the real look and feel of hitting a ball without the on-court distractions and has been much more effective than shadow swinging.I'd also like to commend their amazing customer service! We misplaced a component and they went above and beyond to ship a replacement part free of charge. Their customer support is outstanding!

The ball placement at the lowest level is a bit too high, I probably should have gotten the junior? I'm about 5'7" tall. But I can definitely still use it.The trainer itself is surprisingly useful. It will help you memorize your strokes with the right form. One good thing is if you hit the training ball incorrectly, you will feel it and hear a difference since your racquet frame will hit the arm holding the ball.It is very sturdy and constructed very well. One thing to consider is the cost since it is expensive.

The idea behind this unit is spot on. The mechanical execution in the parts that count however, leaves so much to be desired. First, the expensive ball has a sleeve through it that rotates on a shaft. No bearings, just a dry sleeve on a dry shaft. I added some Phil Wood's bicycle grease and that helped, but only marginally. The second problem with the rotation is that ball is not held specifically in place laterally so it slides side to side into the two arms of the "Y". Even after greasing it, I can only get it to spin two to three rounds using my hands to slap it. The other mechanical issue is the flexing arm. It moves as though someone took a garden hose, filled it with thick jello, and then stuck an old spring in. It is erratic and and inconsistent. All of that said, the frame and weighting are top notch, but this is not worth anywhere near the $200 mark. At $49.99, it would be very much worth considering.

Easy to put together, and it's great during the winter months or a rainy day when you can't get to the courts but you want to hit some balls. Allows you to refine your strokes and has an adjustable height. Make sure you have sufficient space to swing your racquet when indoors

The Eye Coach is a decent training tool to work on your swing, and it is fun to use, but it is insanely priced. I have been looking at this for a couple of years for my kids to practice, and I finally broke down and bought it. I can't get over the cost. This thing shouldn't cost more than $100, and even that is a stretch. It's not incredibly sturdy and if you don't hit it just right, you will ruin the rim of your tennis racquet. Does it do what it's supposed to do? Yes, but should it cost $220? No way. I'm just so torn about the purchase... it's like buying a Coach bag. Does it really work better or is it any higher quality than a more affordable option? Probably not, but you pay for the name I suppose.

This is very helpful and actually fun to use. I've basically gone from total beginner to decent tennis player pretty quickly from watching YouTube instruction, practicing at a wall, and using the Eye Coach and one other training "device". The Eye Coach I received is well made and very easy to set up. It's great to be able to get useful practice indoors in air conditioning, when it's raining, just whenever I feel like picking up my racquet and going into another room. I've seen quick improvement, especially in the one-handed topspin backhand I was just starting to learn when I bought this. I use my cheaper racquet with it so that's not a concern. (You don't have to pound on the Eye Coach to learn from it anyway.) My girlfriend is using it also now and is starting to become someone I can actually go out on the court and hit with. I don't normally take time to write reviews, but when had a question about my Eye Coach, (not a problem), and got great response/customer service, I thought they deserved it.

5yo went to beginners tennis camp on weekends for 6 weeks and still kept whiffing on a majority of balls. Didn't enjoy tennis at the time because he kept missing the ball. I got the kids+adult version. He enjoyed using the Swing Trainer because he could actually hit the ball on a consistent basis. Used it for a week before we tried putting him back on the court. When he got back on the court he amazingly made contact on most of the balls, now asks us to play! Works for me and my wife as well. Great product if cost isn't an issue.
