    What is the best bat on the market?

    The Miken Intensity was in IMO the best bat made, it was sorta the fastpitch version of the Ultra. Of the new bats out right now the CF4 and the Easton speed series seemed to be the most popular.

    For All You I/R Pitching Junkies........

    These IR discussion have been very good and its has open my eyes quite a bit. I have gotten where I can throw a FB, drop, curve, and even a change using it, but I can't figure out how to get the proper spin for a rise or a screw using IR. It seems to me that to throw these pitches you actually...

    Land D versus step styles.

    If I were a betting man, I would have guess the number 1 reason why L&D is more prominent now is because you are closer to the plate at release, thus giving the appearance of a faster pitch. If you have two pitchers throwing 60mph and one is stepping out 4 feet and the other is leaping out 8...

    Write your own crazy question to the forum here...

    Which bat will cause my DD's batting average to increase the most, 05 RT or the 07 easton stealth? BTW she's 10 and her batting average on her all star team was .778.

    Home made Hitting tee
