This chuckit is a great tool especially for those challenged with throwing.  It helps me throw the ball farther & more accurately than I could ever do on my on.  & all that with very little stress on my arm or shoulder.  The length of the launcher also makes it perfect to pick up the ball without bending over after my little buddy (pit bull) comes back with the ball & drops it.  It allows him to really get a work out fetching long fly balls.  He loves it!!!
