Tanner Pro Weighted Baseball Batting Tee & Softball Tee
Description
The Tanner Pro Weighted Batting Tee is a pro-level training tool built to handle the demands of serious, high-repetition work. Anchored by an 11 lb weighted base, it stays put through hard swings without drifting or tipping - no matter how aggressive your cut. The reinforced steel stem and hand-rolled Flextop are designed to give hitters a true feel for the ball rather than the tee, reinforcing clean contact mechanics every rep.
Whether you're working on low-ball contact, youth development, or full-stance hitting drills, the Tanner Pro covers it all with three height configurations. The one-handed friction-fit adjustment system makes on-the-fly changes fast and simple, while the detachable stem keeps it compact enough to fit right in your bat bag. Equally at home on a turf cage floor or a grass field, this tee is built for players, coaches, and teams who refuse to compromise.
Key Features
- 11 lb Weighted Base: Heavy base holds steady through powerful swings - no sliding, no tipping.
- One-Handed Height Adjustment: Friction-fit system lets you change height quickly with one hand between reps.
- Reinforced Steel Stem: Durable metal construction built to withstand heavy, daily use.
- Skid-Resistant Coating: Stem coating prevents unwanted slipping and adds longevity to the build.
- Hand-Rolled Flextop: Rubber Flextop flexes naturally on contact so hitters feel the ball, not the tee - promoting cleaner swing mechanics.
- Detachable Stem: Breaks down easily for compact storage and fits in a standard bat bag for travel.
- Three Height Ranges: Available in Low Ball (16-23"), Youth (20-32"), and Adult/Standard (26-43") to cover all ages and swing planes.
- Baseball & Softball Compatible: Works for both baseball and softball training, indoors or outdoors.
Size Options & Which to Choose
- Adjustable 16-23" (Low Ball): Designed specifically for low-pitch contact work. Ideal for players of any age practicing below-the-knee ball location and driving through low pitches.
- Adjustable 20-32" (Youth/Short - Ages 8 and below): Sized for younger hitters who need a lower range to match their stance and strike zone. A great first tee for developing players.
- Adjustable 26-43" (Adult/Standard - Ages 9 and up): The full-range option for older youth through adult players. Covers the entire strike zone and suits most hitters for all-around batting practice.

Why You'll Love It
The Tanner Pro is engineered for players who take their training seriously and need a tee that keeps up. That 11 lb base means zero frustration from a tee that moves on you mid-session - just consistent, stable reps every single time. The hand-rolled Flextop is a genuine difference-maker, giving you honest feedback on your contact point rather than masking it. When practice is over, the detachable stem makes packing up and heading to the next field effortless. Whether you're a travel ball player logging daily cage work or a coach running station drills with a full team, this tee is built to hold up season after season. It's the kind of equipment that earns its place in the bag and stays there.

FAQ
Which size should I buy for my child?
For players ages 8 and below, the Youth/Short model (20-32") is the right fit - it's sized to match a younger hitter's stance and strike zone. For players ages 9 and up, the Adult/Standard model (26-43") covers the full range they'll need as they grow. If your focus is specifically on practicing low pitches, the Low Ball model (16-23") is available for any age.
Can this tee be used for softball as well as baseball?
Yes - the Tanner Pro is designed for both baseball and softball use. The Flextop and overall build accommodate both ball sizes, making it versatile for players who train across both sports.
Will the base actually stay in place during hard swings?
Yes. The 11 lb weighted base is the key feature here - it's heavy enough to stay grounded through aggressive cuts without sliding or tipping. This is one of the standout advantages of the Tanner Pro over lighter, less stable tee designs.
How does the Flextop help with hitting mechanics?
The hand-rolled rubber Flextop is designed to flex and give way naturally when the ball is struck, so hitters make contact with the ball rather than feeling resistance from the tee. This promotes cleaner swing mechanics and more accurate feedback on every rep.
Does the tee disassemble for easy transport?
Yes - the stem detaches from the base, allowing the tee to break down into a compact form that fits in a standard bat bag. This makes it easy to bring to the cage, field, or on the road with a travel team.
Can this tee be used indoors on turf or gym flooring?
Absolutely. The Tanner Pro is built for both indoor and outdoor use. The weighted base and skid-resistant coating keep it stable on a variety of surfaces, including turf, gym floors, and grass.
