All of our players have improved results. The players have realized that the Dr. Dish will allow them to train and practice much more effectively. They are spending less time, and receiving better results because of the efficiency that Dr. Dish provides. Several of our players have become addicted to using the machine each day. We use the machine as a pre-game activity regardless if it is a home or an away game. I feel much better before the games if I know that the players have taken advantage of using the Dr. Dish."
- Greg Gober, Head Boys’ Basketball Coach
Colleyville Heritage High School, Colleyville, TX
"Dr. Dish is state of the art. It allows you to really coach your players on shooting fundamentals instead of having to pass the ball to them. We love to use it by bringing players in one at a time and have them do a drill in which they have to make 100 threes and we time it. The consistency in the pass helps improve their accuracy."
- Mark Adams, Head Boys’ Basketball Coach
Brookfield Central High School, Brookfield, WI
"We recently purchased the Dr. Dish and I can see results already. Any player that has a desire to become a better shooter will benefit from this machine.

"The versatility offered by Dr. Dish was one reason we choose it over others. We have, in a short time, benefited greatly from using it with our perimeter and post players. We have been able to get up a phenomenal amount of shots in our shoot-arounds on game days, as well. We are really looking forward to having it for our summer workouts. Our current free throw percentage is the highest in school history."
- Bill Bennett, Head Boys’ Basketball Coach
Robert C. Byrd High School, Clarksburg, WV
"The boys and girls basketball program were looking into getting a shooting machine and had started the process on a machine that our boy’s basketball coach had found. The day before we started the paper work I got an email on Dr. Dish. I took one look at it and compared it to what we were going to get and was convinced that a few extra dollars was going to be worth getting Dr. Dish instead. The few extra dollars were well spent. We have had the Dr. Dish for 4 months and have enjoyed it so much. The girls ask to come early to practice or open gym just to get more time on it. I even had 3 girls that would come at 6:30 in the morning during the summer just to be able to use it. Dr. Dish really helps the girls to be conscious of their shot and to think about the fundamentals of it. I truly believe it is going to be a great asset to our success. Our girls program loves the Dish and would highly recommend it to any program".
- Candice Gonzales, Head Girls’ Basketball Coach
Mesquite High School, Gilbert, AZ
"We used the Dr. Dish system extensively during the summer leading up to this season. The confidence it helped our kids develop translated into a vastly improved shooting percentage. We used it with our big men to help them catch passes and with our guards to catch and shoot without any wasted motion. The repetitions came quicker and with more consistency which helped us increase the number of shots we could get in during our practices."
- Kenny Smith, Head Boys’ Basketball Coach
Thatcher High School, Thatcher, AZ
"I have been thoroughly pleased with the "Doctor." Our players love using the shot doctor. It is like having another assistant coach on the floor."

- Ricky Oliver, Nashua North Girls’ Varsity Coach & Director of Northeastern Girls AAU Program

- Mike Smith, Head Boys’ Basketball
Booneville High School, MS
"In the 5-6 weeks that we have used the machine, the amount of participation has tripled. The workouts have become more organized and the time is cut in half.

I am excited to use it this summer with our high school clinic, our youth clinic, and of course next season."
- Andrew Havelka, Head Girls’ Basketball Coach
Omaha North High School, Omaha, NE

- Colby Tilley, Head Women’s Basketball Coach
Kennesaw State University, Kennesaw, GA
"While we have used the Dr. Dish as a station in regular practice, we have found the most benefit for players is getting the reps they need to help us move to the next level. Dr. Dish gives our players what it takes to get the reps in with the busy high school and family schedules we are working with throughout the year."
- Jim Sims, Assistant Boys’ Basketball Coach
Berean Christian School, West Palm Beach, FL

- Youirsheba Harris, Head Women’s Basketball Coach
Central State University, Wilberforce, OH

- Justin Heckenlaible, Head Men’s Basketball Coach
Minnesota West Community College, Worthington, MN
"We Love It! We are a poor town on the border (of Mexico), our kids worked hard and Dr. Dish helped us out. Over the summer, our kids used it before, after and during open gyms. We use it for all positions, but our shooters use it the most. We feel like this piece of machinery will be worth many wins in the future."
- Homer Garr, Head Boys’ Basketball Coach
Roma High School, Roma, TX

That helps make them shoot more shots as they are motivated but even more motivated to use such a cooperative machine.
- Bruce Langford, Head Women’s Basketball Coach

- Jeff Compan, Head Girls’ Basketball Coach
Pymatuning Valley High School, Andover, OH
"I’m not a coach, just a gym rat who happens to have an indoor court at his house. I’m using the Dr. Dish every day and having a blast working out with it. My two boys, ages 19 and 21, both play ball and are home for the summer. They’re out of their minds over the machine. All their friends are coming over now and they’re designing their own workouts in prep for next year’s college season. This has been a great acquisition for us."
- Bill Lyons

"I have three daughters that thoroughly enjoy the game of basketball (ages 7, 10 and 14). They have incorporated the Dr. Dish into their daily training. It has added another level of excitement to their training program. They don’t realize how hard they are working and how much this tool is improving their shot. We haven’t explored all of the options with the Dr. Dish; however, we learn something new everyday. I believe this tool will enhance their shooting and ball control".
- Stacy Lee, Basketball Dad
Deridder, LA
"We had 4 players get up 2000 shots in 55 minutes, no way would they /will they do that without the machine. Dr. Dish's versatility is great. We require our guards to MAKE 300 shots on the machine per week. Dr. Dish will be a tremendous asset to our players/program during the off-season."

- Michael Allen, Head Boys’ Basketball Coach
Norfolk Christian High School, Norfolk, VA
"We have been extremely pleased with the machine. We still have not figured out how to maximize its potential benefits but learn something new about it almost everyday. The constant repetition without a delay for rebounding really seems to help players hone their shooting form and make small adjustments when needed. It gets them into a rhythm. It can be a good conditioner as it forces a tempo. Players cannot rest because the machine does not. It helps make shooting drills more game-speed".
- Frederick Hackett, Head Boys’ Basketball Coach
Fowlerville Community Schools, Fowlerville, MI
"Dr. Dish is like having another coach on the floor, instead of me and my staff having to make passes or take shots for rebounding drills we can have the Dr. Dish do it all and we can truly focus on improving the players’ blocking out or moves once they catch the ball".
- R. J. Strauch, Head Boys’ Basketball Coach
Smithson Valley High School, Spring Branch, TX
"My players and I love Dr. Dish. Dr. Dish has helped my players understand why they need some arc on their jump shot. We had many of them wanting to stay after practice so they can get more shots in that day. Dr. Dish is like another coach in practice for shooting drills. It’s easy to work and easy to store as well. Dr. Dish in the off-season is helping them as well. The rotation of the Dr. Dish so they can get more shots in different spots is great for our program".

Brielle Schools, Brielle, NJ

- Sanford Feld, Head Girls’ Basketball Coach
Morris Knolls High School, Rockaway, NJ
"Great tool and teaching aid. Kids love to use it."
- Stephen Rivette, Director Cage Sports

Heather Macy, Head Women's Basketball Coach
Francis Marion University, Florence, SC
"The iMake has been a tremendous addition to the program we now are able to get up 1000 shots in one work out session. This has been great for us taking us to a 60% shooting ratio from the field, also helping us reach the number 1 ranking in the state for the 1st time in our schools history. The iMake's all-around use has also been a great training aide for our post players".
- Kelvin Mills, Varsity Girls Basketball Coach
Village Christian Academy, Fayetteville, NC
