So like 400 feet?

My kid would swing 27-30 oz slow pitch bats when she was 10 (16 now). Still swings a 33/30 wood bat. Never in games though. She now swings a few 33/23 as much as her 33/25. Against top pitching the added barrel control is neccesary, and honestly I think the -10s are sending the ball with as much exit speed as the heavier bats.

I don't know the field she played on was super short fenced I'm just referencing point of impact and drop point next tournament at that field I will try to get a measurement. I will load another picture see if someone can eye ball it.

She hit from the backstop in the right side of the picture just short of 2nd base that is over her shoulder?

A 10U player swinging a 34/25 against coach pitch or very weak pitching, is not the same as swinging a 34/25 against a pitcher throwing 60+....so do not be surprised if your DD suddenly needs to drop down a size or two.

I never once said she hit this HR with a 34/25 she did it with her Xeno 32/21 she has a hurt arm so I'm not letting her swing it anytime soon. But this hit did humble my rear with her needing a bigger bat thanks DFP!

Fence is 175 according to the sign in the outfield and an 11" ball is much lighter and travels further than a heavier 12" ball. Still a great HR and your DD has a bright future ahead of her!
