    Olympics 2021

    When we turned it on I was pretty disappointed with the field set up. It’s the freakin olympics and they’ve had several years to put something together on a real softball field. It is good to see it back. Japan looks very solid.

    Vinci 1961

    Be ready to break it in. Thing is a freakin brick when it’s new lol. DD has had hers for a few years now and it’s been an awesome glove for outfield. We did have it relaced about a year in. I think you’ll be pleased. For the price it’s a great glove.

    Guess I'll start an off-topic thread?

    Take him up on that offer! Some of my fondest memories in life have been made hunting with my grandpa, kids, or dad. I hope as my kids get older and get there own life’s they still find time to hunt and fish with me on occasion. I bet those days will mean more to your dad than you realize. Plus...

    anyone going to Myrtle this and next week?

    We went a couple of years ago and had a great time. The beach of course was awesome. All the fields DD played on were top notch. As a Midwesterner I’m not sure if this was normal for that area, but it rained everyday and games were delayed at some point every single day we were there. Made it...

    Worst Non Softball Sport for Softball Players

    I’m kind of surprised that more people aren’t saying volleyball. Pretty much every ball team DD has been on has had a girl or two miss time due to a volleyball injury.

    Another Seen in a Game This Week:

    Jeez. A problem that could’ve been completely avoided if the ump would’ve just nipped the problem right away. Was this CM?I’ve only been to 2 of Emma’s games so far but I can say the umps been pretty bad on both sides from what I’ve seen. Glad to hear that your making it to some games!

    *POLL~14u~whats your opinion on mandatory...

    I did not vote because I’m not exactly sure where my answer would fall. If you know this going in then it does seem like a reasonable request. This would probably be a team that my DD could not play for due to financial and time constraints. I do have a personal opinion that if you need private...

    “The New Bats Are So Fragile”

    So DD’s dual stamp Ghost got warranty replaced for wobble at the connection point. An ump tossed it at a tournament last fall. It was hot as fire but the wobble was pretty bad. One other girl on the team had the same issue with the same bat. Another had the barrel fly completely off of the...

    Easton warranty ?

    Nice! I just had DD’s Ghost replaced last week. It’s the first bat we’ve ever sent in for warranty and it really was pretty painless.

    School ball

    DD’s school ball team started open gyms here in Illinois last week. They do two a week and weight train two times a week. Every Sunday she hits with her travel ball team. Right now it looks like her travel ball team is going to try to do two outdoor tournaments in March, and school ball games...

    Rawlings Mantra

    I actually like the looks of the bat lol. Something about it reminds me of old school bats. Closeout bats has a demo video up. It has a pretty good sound. I might look into one if DD’s next Ghost breaks. I’ll keep my eyes open for any reviews. She has been pretty happy with Rawlings bats in the...

    Guess I'll start an off-topic thread?

    Being in Illinois I have a pretty decent collection of shotguns. Rifles are illegal to use for deer here. I have a pristine browning a5 field 12 gauge that’s my prettiest gun. For whatever reason I don’t shoot it very good though lol. Also have a browning sweet 16. Most of my hunts are done with...
