Why Black Netting Is Best for Basketball Shooting Machines and Rebounders

When it comes to the best basketball shooting machines, or basketball rebounders and court training setups, not all nets are created equal. While white or translucent nets may be used on some products, they can actually interfere with visual performance in ways that matter most, especially for players training at game speed.

That’s why at Dr. Dish, we developed an extra-wide 3” weave anti-glare black netting to eliminate distraction and sharpen focus.

Here’s why we choose black nets: 

1. Built for Visual Clarity
Our black mesh is engineered to reduce light refraction and glare, giving players a clean, unobstructed view of the rim and ball trajectory. Unlike white netting, which can reflect light or shift attention, the black net visually disappears — so nothing breaks your rhythm or pulls focus from your form.

2. Designed for Muscle Memory
Players train best when they can fully lock in on the target. With consistent, distraction-free visuals, the brain reinforces correct shot mechanics. Bright or busy backgrounds disrupt this process — but our black net helps build the repetition and reference your shot depends on.

3. Trusted by Pros, Proven by Science
From MLB stadiums to Nike catcher masks, black netting is the standard for elite sports performance. Why? Because it works. Studies and real-world use confirm that black netting quickly fades into the background — letting your eyes focus on what counts.

4. Premium Look. Professional Feel.
Beyond performance, black netting projects seriousness. It’s sleek, minimal, and designed with athletes in mind. If your training setup should reflect your ambition, your net should too.

Unlike other shooting machine brands, our all-parts warranty on the Dr. Dish includes any necessary repairs or replacements.
