    NCAA Approved Bat List - No Freak

    Who'd have thought the Miken Freak Black wouldn't be on the list? College Freshman DD has been swinging one since Fall. The team is about to head to FLA for Spring ball and just learned she can't use her favorite bat. What's the closest thing nowadays to the Freak Black? I feel an early...

    Laker's Bats For Sale

    All sold - DD is away to college, and moved on to 34" bats a year ago. I have these three 33" bats available for sale. All the connections are tight. None are cracked. All four are broken in and hot. The Sprite is scary hot. I can send detailed pictures if you are interested. Demarini CF6...

    CF6 Sprite 33/22 (x2) and Mako 33/23 For Sale

    Thinning out the herd. I used to buy two at a time, but I'm getting better slowly. I've got three bats to get rid of. 2x CF6 Sprite 33/22 - $175 each. I bought these and she really only used one of them. That's the one with the white grip. She swung it enough to wear through the grip. This...

    Wilson Shock FX 2.0 Fastpitch Catcher's Helmet

    I'm trying to buy one of these (in black) and I'm seeing them back ordered everywhere. I've actually had one on order at softball.com for a while, and just sitting on the order waiting for them to come into stock. Does anybody know where I can find one? DD's old Mizuno helmet served her well...

    OK Sooners Rawlings Bats

    I'm watching the OU / Maryland game. The Sooners are swinging Rawlings bats. What are these? Google doesn't help me much, or I'm just doing it wrong. Laker

    Players playing for two teams in same tournament

    DD played in a PGF qualifier tournament today. One of the organizations had two teams playing, both at 14u. Two girls from the organization played on both teams. Is this allowed? I can't see how it could be. Thanks.

    Primary Position - "Hitter"

    DD just sent off her first email to a college coach today. She met him at a clinic she attended over the weekend. She asked me to proof read it for her. The part I thought was interesting was she listed her positions as, "Hitter, Catcher". :cool: She must have been listening to the recruiting...

    Easton 2015 FS1 Zero

    I just picked up a used 2015 FS1, the white one. It was an offer I couldn't refuse. I have a bat problem, I admit it. It's a 33/23, so an inch longer than her current bat. I read they often come in over sticker weight by an ounce and change but haven't weighed it. Looking at the bat weight...

    Winter Camps Recommendation

    For a number of reasons, DD (14u) will likely be playing with a team that doesn't have a hardcore Winter training schedule next year. She's a catcher. So, a trip to the NECC is on my mind, as soon as their Winter schedule is posted. She's also sure to attend the hitting and catching camps at...

    Olaf?

    Olaf seems to have taken a vacation from this place. So I will go ahead and just say it. GOPHERS 9. WOLVERINES 1. That is all.

    Backpack Style Gear Bag For Catcher

    DD is tired of dragging her gear from one side of campus to another, running after the non-catchers. She can *almost* fit her gear in her old Easton backpack, but not quite. Can anyone recommend a backpack style bag that's big enough for catchers gear along with batting helmet, and all the other...

    Ridiculous Cheers

    I'm sitting here watching Mizzou play S. Carolina with my DD. The SC team was standing in the dugout doing some choreographed dance / cheer thing. We'd just gotten done talking about recruiting and picking out a list of schools. DD rolls her eyes and looks at me, says "Scratch SC off the list...

    Measuring Exit Speed

    My DD and her friend plan to measure exit speed off a number of bats using borrowed RADAR gun at the local batting cages for a (pretty non-scientific if you ask me, but that's not the point...) science project. I think it sounds like fun. Given a tee, a bunch of fairly new softballs, a few bats...

    Spoiled Brat

    My DD was "that kid" this weekend and I don't know how to handle it. For the second time this Summer, she's let her emotions get the better of her. She's a super competitive kid in everything she does, whether it's school or sports. She is a 2nd year 12U playing up at 14U on a decent club team...

    Catcher Pick Off - Bases Loaded

    I'm interested in reading your opinions on this. Situation: Bases loaded with two outs. We are facing a pitcher who's held us to one run, very few base runners. It's the bottom of the last inning of the game. and we are tied 1-1. The Play: Our catcher notices the runner on 1B is taking a...
