JUGS Field General Football Machine
JUGS Sports offers two great football machines. They offer the JUGS Football Machine that you will see many NFL superstar players use, however, they also offer the JUGS Field General Football Machine. The JUGS Field General is a less expensive model that offers most of the same features as the JUGS Football.
You will see that the main difference between the two machines is the distance that both machines throw. The Football Machines throws 80 yards down the field, while the Field General throws 60 yards. If that extra distance matters to you than go with the JUGS Football, if not than the Field General provides a great, less expensive alternative.

Capabilities & Drills
Catching Drills
If you are a wide receiver, tight end, or running back, you need consistent practice to work on your catching abilities. Quarterbacks can be hit or miss, especially at the high school level or lower. With the JUGS Field General, you will have consistent throws so you can fully focus on your route running and hands.
Defensive Drills
Many think that football machines are only for receiving training, however, they could not be more wrong! This football machine is perfect for defensive drills. There are a variety of reaction and zone-coverage drills that the Field General will help perform. Most of the time the quarterback would be needed for these drills, however, the Field General allows for these drills to occur without taking the QB from their training.
Kick Return/Punt Return Drills
What is the main problem for punt returners and kick returners in practice? The answer is errant punts and kicks. A lot of young punters will shank their punts, which wastes practice time. The Field General solves this problem by providing accurate kicks and punts. You can set the machine to throw anywhere on the field and have a five second long hangtime.
Conditioning Drills
The worst part of every practice for young players is conditioning. So why not try to make it fun? Football machines will throw the ball deep down the field, which gives players some motivation to run hard to try to catch the ball.
