    Camwood Bat

    Thanks. Great question and does make me wonder even more why they continue the hands to ball mantra. and it makes sense with the weight at the hands that casting would really be felt. Trying to figure out if I want a Camwood or an end loaded wooden bat practice bat. Both my DD (Rocketech &...

    Camwood Bat

    Who has swung the Camwood bat? Can you please let me know what you think? Based on the below comments I gleaned from their marketing videos it really sounds like something to avoid: Statements made: keeps your bat path going in the direction (demonstrates bat going down) to cut the baseball...

    Throwing Drills

    Sorry SportScout, but I taught my DD from 4 to 8 years old, similar mechanics as being shown in this video. L- Drill, face the ball away, glove tuck, spin and throw. She had a strong accurate throw and better than most girls her age. She, however started having shoulder and elbow pain. I...

    The DFP Super Platinum Elite Team T-shirt

    I think we need DFP euro magnets for our trucks as well. Shirt and/or magnet slogans: Got DFP? I DFP, do you? DFP'ers go deep! DFP or go home! Rob.

    Portable Pitching Screen?

    I have this: Softball A-Screen Portable Pitching Screen - Morrow Sports LLC I got it for $199. It is not as easily portable as a Bow-Net but so far seems to be bomb proof. I don't bring it to tournaments, but I do bring it to practice when we are not at our regular field. Takes about 3...

    Organization Websites

    Blue Sombrero, sponsored by Dick's Sporting Goods is free. Serious overkill for a single team though.

    First base lead off and feet positioning.

    I will take the running start any day over your perceived "two foot advantage". With all things being equal and having two runners whose foot leaves the base at the same, the one with their front foot on the base will start their forward momentum earlier. This running start will definitely be...

    Missing School for Softball

    There were also times we picked her up half way through the day as that did not count as an absence.

    Missing School for Softball

    Thanks for this. With the exception of one teacher that has been our experience. My DD goes to a magnet school that does not have a softball team. She therefore plays for her home town school and regularly needed to be dismissed early for games. I usually had to go a few minutes earlier than...
