Median priced bat recommendation

[MK37]

My DD is moving up to 14U this coming season and it's time for a new bat. In the past, we have held off on a good bat until we knew she was committed to playing. I still can't bring myself to buying a $300 bat. What are some good bats in the $150-$200 range?

You can get a new rocket tech for under $200,I have seen them for $189 on some web sites.

You should be able to get last year’s XENO in this price range, off eBay if nowhere else. Maybe less but probably close to $150.

Ditto on this! Couple months back I picked up a '11 xeno for $155 including shipping. You will be hard pressed to find a better bat and deal.

Exactly, just because it's $300 doesn't mean it's better. The '11 Xeno and the '11 Rocketech are great bats.

Don't forget about the '11 Nanotech and '11 CF4's, which you can also find in that price range if you look carefully.

Sorry, my post earlier was supposed to second the ebay comment.
