1. What are the high school parks in the metroplex where the balls just fly out of the park? I mean rountine flys become home runs.
2. Which parks are pitcher friendly, the toughest to hit home runs?

I heard from a Marcus fan that the ball carries well at their new ball park.
Dallas Christian and Richardson HS have short porches that strictly depend on how hard the wind is blowing; but they're still very short.
Some parks in the Pitcher's category could be: Flower Mound, Arlington Martin, Southlake Carroll, Keller Central.

One of best pitcher-friendly: Ft Worth Southwest

Amen of GP! Was fortunate enough to play my HS ball there.
The ball will get out at Plano HS pretty well too.
Southlake is a pitcher's park as are any of the Mansfield fields.

Yep, GP and South GP too. I've seen a few fly there, both for and against!

New Byron Nelson HS, seem to fly well especially from RC to RF line. Ball also travels well at Liberty for TAPPS.
Pitcher friendly: LHS, sits down in a hole but South winds from Spring blow straight in from center.

From what I've seen, Wylie is very much a hitter's park with it's smaller dimensions. McKinney Boyd is definitely a pitcher's park as it's dimensions match that of any college field and the wind doesn't typically blow out. Good park for triples though.
Hitter Friendly - Arlington Heights...We've played tournaments there and it always seems like the balls find a way over the tall right field fence.
Pitcher Friendly - FW Southwest...Same story, played several tournaments there, but the balls stay in the park.

JJ Pearce is 330 to dead centerfield! Any other fields that close in centerfield?
