BlackStick Ultimate Professional Mound Clay
- Crushed and Screened to ⅛”
- Pure Gumbo Mound Clay
- Extreme Packing Density
Black Gumbo Packing Clay has been utilized at the highest levels in Professional Baseball for many years. Until recently, this clay has required much time and effort to prepare on-site, including: crushing large hard chunks with a 1-ton roller, hand screening to 1/4” minus, adding water and mixing for proper moisture. The prepped clay would then normally only last through a homestand.
BlackStick™ goes through extensive preparation prior to the bagging process so you no longer have to take the time and effort to prep in-house. The Gumbo is pre-screened to a 1/8” minus, then goes through a process where moisture is added and blended thoroughly prior to bagging. Providing the same quality packing clay used at professional baseball facilities, but BlackStick™ is ready to use right out of the bag.
And because that rigorous prep work is no longer required, fields already using the Gumbo are able to shift hours/labor towards fine tuning other areas of the field. On fields where the Gumbo isn’t currently being used due to the amount of time and effort involved in the prep, a significant improvement to the highest traffic areas of their field can be made, all while spending less time and using less product for post-game repair.
BlackStick™ allows you to create a safer, more consistent playable surface for Pitchers, Catchers, and Batters—the areas of the playing surface that receive the highest activity on the field per square foot.
