ABSTRACT:
A batting practice apparatus that employs a cyclone fence as an upright, rigid support. A rigid, horizontal arm is detachably secured at one end to the top of the fence. At the other end of the horiziontal arm is detachably secured the upper end of a vertically extending shock cord. At the other end of the shock cord is attached an anchoring spike. Intermediate the ends of the shock cord is a ball. The shock cord passes freely through the ball along its vertical axis. A tether passes horizontally through the ball at a location confronting the fence. Opposite ends of the tether are removably secured to the fence to form a triangle for adjusting the horizontal location of the ball. While the tether is detached from the fence at either end, the ball is movable along the shock cord to a desired height. When the tether is attached to the fence at each end in a taut state, the ball is maintained at the adjusted height along the shock cord.
