No ring or sting
11 year old in travel ball says why didn't I have this all summer. He hits consistently with a Marucci Vice and a Warstick Bonesaber and he says the thumb guard has taken the ring & sting out of the hit. Now, if I can just keep him from losing them, that will be my benefit. A pack of 5 or 10 at a discount price would be great.

6 homeruns with the Hit Hero!
Since my 11 year old started using his Hit Hero last fall he has hit 6 over the fence home runs. He didn't have any prior to using it. He is hitting the ball harder and more consistently with it and doesn't ever want to hit without it. I highly recommend the Hit Hero to anyone wanting to improve their swing. It does exactly it's suppose to!

Good addition
This is a great addition to grandson batting. Since purchasing hit hero grandson uses it every at bat. He was against it at first but got comfortable after a couple Bp sessions and not feeling any sting on miss hit.

I've been using these for about 4 years now and I've probably ordered 7 of these things. I'll never switch to another thumb guard as long as I play. It's not too bulky like pro hitters but it's still got support from getting jammed. 10/10 product and service

As expected
Saw some reviews and product is as expect es. Switching from a Pro Hitter and this is thinner and feels like a little more bat control.

No more sting
As a new baseball player I was getting jammed a lot and using a wood bat made it really painful to hit while learning, since getting my HitHeros I have had far less sting and am more confident swinging the bat!

Great product
If you don't like the bulkiness of other thumb guards then you will love this design by hit hero. Thin and longer design to dampen sting without giving up feel.

Love this
After jamming my thumb for the fourth time this summer season, I purchased the hit hero and have not had a problem since. I have used other thumb guards and nothing is as comfortable as the hit hero!

Purchased for my youngest daughter who is playing U15AA. She says she feels she has more bat control when she uses the hit hero vs not wearing it. Colour matches her gear perfectly. Shipped and arrived fast.

Excellent Hitting Tool!
As a coach of many young ball players I think this is the most effective tool at helping build their confidence at home plate. By reducing the sting, the kids swing more freely and the results come from there. I have suggested every kid on my teams purchase at least one!
