    Best Bat For My 10 Year Old Daughter

    I second this answer. Do not buy a bat unless you have swung it or swung bats within the same size/weight of a manufacturer! DD had a 30/18 Vendetta which was light and I bought an Easton SVR4B 30/20 thinking that would be appropriate and to my surprise it actually weighs 22 oz! It is a tank...

    New cf6

    Go to the Demarini website and find a local dealer and try them out. All bats that are within the same model/s of a manufacturer feel differently. Our friend has a 29/18 CF5 (the light blue one, weighed 18.5 oz) which felt a little end loaded vs. the new CF6 30/19 (weighed 18.5 oz) which swung...

    CF6 -10 33" What should I price it at ?

    Since you might have a buyer I don't want to say, but I will say that I just bought a used CF5 for $140.

    2013 Demarini Vendetta C6 vs. the 2-13 Miken Rev-Ex Light

    Agree. My DD is 11 yo 4-7 and 65 lbs and cannot swing a drop -10. We had -12 and have now transitioned to -11. I am currently only buying Demarini until she fills out and can swing a heavier bat.

    2013 Demarini Vendetta C6 vs. the 2-13 Miken Rev-Ex Light

    Buy her a used bat. I just bought a used CF5 drop -11 for $140. It will likely last a year and then I"ll resell for $75-100. There is absolutely no comparison between the Vendetta and CF5 especially at 12U. I bought a niw Vendetta last year from Amazon for $105.

    Manny Ramirez - analysis of his swing

    Found this on youtube and me being new to trying to understand the swing thought it was quite helpful. Manny Ramirez Swing Analysis - YouTube I would be interested in anyone's thoughts/comments. Thanks.

    Batting out of order?

    That's what I thought. You want to alert the blue before the first pitch of the next batter. Last weekend this happened. We knew the other team was batting out of order and I kept telling our manager to call time before the first pitch of the following batter. He did not, he waited to...

    6-4-3

    Thanks everyone. We played a team last weekend who had players run extra bases after being called out. I don't think they did this with runners on, but I know at no point did we think they were a live runner. I'm going to put this in my little sheet in case it comes up.

    Batting out of order?

    I have a question regarding the following: B2 is supposed to be up, but B3 comes up and walks. B4 comes up and a pitch is thrown. Is B2 out or just skipped until the next time around? Here is the ASA rule (Amateur Softball Association of America (ASA)) : Section D[3] Addresses batting out...

    softball practice

    I would pick the best team for your DD and work around their schedule. If they only practice once a week then you need to find a way for her to practice on other days. Work on her weaknesses! Since we joined a travel team I saw my DD's flaws and work as often as possible on off days to fix them.
