The Best Baseball Batting Turtles To Buy This Season

86 / 100

The BEST Baseball Turtles at every price point!

Baseball Turtles – We specialize in them, we know our turtles and rolling batting cage products very well and we are giving you the information you need to make an informed purchase. Whichever one you choose, you can’t go wrong. All the batting turtles we offer are high quality products.

Batting Turtles, Portable Batting Cages, Batting Practice Cages, Portable Baseball Backstops, or Roll Away Batting Cages are just different terms for the same products. Go figure.

Whatever you call them and whichever model you can budget now, this season – you get your best baseball turtles here!
Frankly, if you have gotten along without a batting turtle, or if what you have is potentially dangerous, don’t put off this purchase one more year just because your program cannot purchase the one model that you really, really want.

The bottom line is that all will do the job and all the baseball turtles that we offer are guaranteed to give you many years of good service with just minimal care, and of course, I will not speak for anything I haven’t personally tested or know.

And like anything else, there’s junk to be had and you sure are not sending back a bad decision of this size, so get your questions answered first!

The Good Baseball Turtles

The Collapsible Home Plate Cage – Here’s a new, unique & creative design with the upside of an inexpensive price, good durability & the ability for it to store with only a 1 ft depth!

It collapses in an accordion-fashion so you can lean it against any wall or fence where it takes up less than 1 foot in depth – all in less than 2 minutes. See our demo video to see the process!

The potential tradeoff is that it does not utilize a wheel transport system and is carried into position needing 4 persons to do so.

The Basic Rolling Batting Cage – Here is the lowest cost you will find on a traditional shape basic baseball turtle, in the style you may have grown up with. It’s a large footprint squared shape tubular steel batting turtle model with a fixed-position canopy. Still a real budget-saver though not recommended for higher wind areas where a real storm can affect it.

D1 Foldable Batting Cage – This is our basic rolling batting cage (shown above) but with the added benefit of being able to be lowered into a more compact, easily transportable position.

It’s a very practical traditional square-shaped baseball turtle that is well worth the investment and adds the additional feature of folding the arches to protect it from higher winds while making it more maneuverable if you have to transport it long distances and/or through any narrow gates or fence openings.

The Better Baseball Turtles

The Original Big Bubba Batting Cage – This model literally changed the shape of most desired baseball turtles.

It may also be the one name brand you have heard of. Since its first incarnation some 20 + years ago, Big Bubba Batting Cages have been around High School Baseball & College Baseball for a long time.

It is still a good purchase and does all the basics well enough. It also gives you the choice of a team-color vinyl backdrop for no upcharge.

I can’t say we’ve ever had a complaint. It’s a good overall performer with a long track record.

The Full-Featured Baseball Turtles

Big Bubba Elite Portable Batting Cage – The upgraded model of America’s best-selling Big Bubba portable batting turtle. It shares the same basic frame, net & vinyl skirt, then adds two coaches platforms, full ricochet padding, and oversized turf ties & wheels with ‘fenders”, and an improved transport dolly for more efficient transport, especially over soft or uneven terrain.

The New Pro Turtle Rolling Baseball Backstop – A 21st-century design on the original concept… It’s the NEW, everything you could want with all the bells & whistles baseball turtle. The downside might be that it ships Triple Black, with a black vinyl skirt, a black thud pad & full frame black ricochet cushion with school colors as an upcharge. Besides that, it is newer and stronger. It will assemble faster than the older clamshell-style portable batting cage because it is fabricated with many more significant pieces, meaning fewer nuts and bolts. It’s fantastic and should be near the top of your list!
