    Mitt padding breakdown

    I am looking hard at the mesh series now. I just hope I can get it broken in quickly and it seems they are out of stock in the Vinci website. Is the mesh more for weight or breathability?

    Mitt padding breakdown

    Sounds tasty, I thought about the batting glove route too, but she doesn't even wear them at the plate.

    Mitt padding breakdown

    I know I'm not the only one who goes through excessive wear and tear with their DD's equipment. That being said, I bought her an Akadema AEA65 in July and the padding in the index finger has already blown apart. This is 2 gloves now that the index padding was shot, not the thumb. The first was...

    ASA Tie Breaker vs ISF tie breaker

    Forgive my ignorance, but the ASA rule book states that after 7 innings it will use the tie breaker rule in championship play. I've searched and searched but can't find what the ASA tie breaker rule is, is it the International tie breaker rule, but they don't want to mention ISF in their rule...

    Affordable equipment.

    I would recommend the Akadema AJB74, it is a 12" modified fly trap, easy break in once you buy an Akadema you won't buy any other brand.

    Affordable equipment.

    My fault, but at the end of the 2nd season with the Vendetta it became apparent that a heavier bat was needed.

    Affordable equipment.

    My DD is 5'3" and weighs 105lbs, swings a 31/20 CF5 and absolutely loves it. She previously had a Vendetta and it was a great bat for the 1st year of 10u, but as they get older the -13 seems to hinder more than help. As far as gloves go we swear by Akadema's fastpitch gloves, the finger...

    Jump or Stay the Course

    Her outgrowing him is my biggest concern, he is a really good friend to me, like I said before our DD's spend a lot of time together, and she looks at the HC as almost a very close relative more than a coach and I think that's part of the reason for lack of response. I don't even want to...
