This is my new hitting area. I just made it in my garage. I had to clean this area out. As you will see, our garage is a mess... so it took me a while. Watch this video. See how much space I have, etc. I need some ideas to make it better... the deal with my parents though is I can't hit their cars and I can't block certain things like the fridge and a pathway to the door.
Anyway... suggestions?

I'm ok at tetris. My mom did most of the stacking. We put our junk there. She really can't loose at that game... lol

lol... we got the grill for free... I'll sell you my dad's car though... :)
What's a canibus plant? It's fake.
And yes, we have a lot of junk in there. We have to have it somewhere... are inside of our house is nice, but the garage... that's another story...
...or a garage sale!!
Randy, here in the hills, people don't really have garage sales. In fact, our drive way is over 400 ft long. You can't see our house from the road.
A dumpster!
Hey, that's valuable junk :rofl:
Most of it is old sports equipment that was just piled ontop of things. I rearranged that area, so a lot of old stuff was brought back.

Just one thing I don't like about the new hitting area, I don't see my cooler with wheeles on it.
Could you at least do a video of the cooler to set my mind at ease.

IMO hitting whiffle balls doesn't have nearly the same feedback, even when hitting into a nearby screen.
I have a similar setup in my garage and recently paid a little over $400 to have the dry walls repaired. I consider that part of the expense of hitting in the garage ... but I'd be interested in learning of an alternative setup.

You can't see our house from the road.C, I thought you said you lived in the po' section of Los Altos (yeah, like there IS one). Looking at the houses around your place in your hitting video and this description, I'd say your house could be traded straight up for either half of downtown Cleveland, or two front row seats to a Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana concert. :)

The most expensive hanna montana ticket that I could find on stub-hub is a little over 2 grand... I could pay that out of my pocket (I worked at my little league's snack shack for 5 years).
check your pm...

What? Can't hit their cars? Don't they realize the importance of 50 points in batting average? Broken window shmroken window :homeplate:

Mrs. Taugue's porch was an automatic grand slam..... after you mustered enough stones to go and get the ball.
