DD is likely going to forego her 2nd 10U season and head to 12U. She is small-medium height, small-medium build, but very strong with some muscle definition - pretty fit.
She hits for legit power using the old 30/19 Demarini CF7-CF9 bats - often 180-200. Yes, we use them because of their pop, but she breaks them constantly. I’m also very much concerned about that bat’s ability to handle the extra heft of a 12” ball. I feel like they’ll break even more often, which I can’t handle.
My question(s):
With the bigger ball, is this when MOI starts to be more of a factor? Is this when we go -10?
Next, are my precious old CFs sitting ducks, and they’ll be a pile of shark teeth before I can blink?
Last, please send along any advice related to the Ghost and the -10 Demarinis. We’ve done the Ghost thing pretty heavily, but you know… same old story; however, they never mashed in with the fractures like the Demarinis. Should I consider the Ghost as a legitimate option for 12U if I can handle the outer barrel fractures, or am I better of with Demarini -10 or -11? Prism+?
Keeping DD’s physique in mind, any and all advice is greatly considered and appreciated.
