Just my opinion after comparing it to other bats once we got 500 solid hits on the barrel.
My view is that what’s popular doesn’t have a lot to do with performance.
The fact that it’s but more obscure. I actually haven’t seen any college teams use it. I’ve seen a bunch use the CBRN-1 but not the PWR CRBN.
I think it’s got better tech than most based on how it performs but its not one of the 3 brands everyone gravitates to for one reason or another.
Update (if anyone cares).
Got a Spryte 31/19 from a local store that told us a drop -11 was too heavy for her (after watching her swing a bunch of bats in the store) and a Power Carbon 31/20 from Core.
She used the Spryte a few days but her swing always looked weird with it. Then we moved to...
The fence is the backup. Don’t love the 1st to 3rd throw unless LF is already standing behind 3B.
Would rather go to the circle and focus on the next one unless that’s the winning run.
Okay, so if we all know this is causing bias there is actual data to support it, why are all associations softball ages not aligned to grade (like USA)?
I really, really appreciate all the guidance. I’ll add a once and see how we do.
Now, for the fun part!!! Which -11 should we get??? She’s a first year travel ball player U10, U12 next season and it’s her 3rd year of little league. Still working on contact, but she’s getting there. Takes...
We do 12 bottom hand and 12 top hand with the Camwood one-hander and 12 with a 30/36 Camwood two-hander 5 times a week.
Sort going from a drop 12 to an 8 seems like a big jump. Worried about going to an 11!!!
