I don’t get it. You’re on opposite baselines and where’s the ball machine? On your partner’s side I suppose. What’s the point?

You hit more balls (ball machine + partner. Actually almost 3 times more balls), while your partner also gets to hit balls from you.
The ball machine was too slow, was boring to jump in place, waiting for the next ball. Entry level one. The partner was also hitting weaker.

Ok then.

I’ve done this with my Lobster but fitted with a block over two of the four feeder positions to bring the feeding rate into the advertised range. It’s good fun.
