    As title states, anyone know a good place to send an A2000 to have the leather on the Velcro strap replaced/ repaired. Its an 11.75" that otherwise is in great shape.

    2018 Easton Ghost

    Wanted to give a quick review on the USSSA Ghost. We got our 30/20 in on Friday from CoreSoftball (thanks Todd). She hit with it right away to try and get a few hits on it so she could use it that night at a tryout. She also has the USA/ASA version in the same size and right away I was...

    Dirty South Bats?!?!?

    Our team demo’ed 3 different sizes over the winter. You give them a credit card, they ship bats to you on your dime and you have something like 14 days to return or they charge for bats. In my opinion, they didn’t hit bad. Had a couple girls that liked them, but none ended up buying them...

    Help me order an A2000

    My daughter has the 1175 FP with superskin. She's had it right at 3 years now and absolutely loves it. I just cleaned and oiled it last night and am really impressed. Its still like a new glove and has all of its shape. She does take good care of it and always puts her mask inside the glove...

    Bret Stumpf/ The Glove Shop

    I’ve emailed him and he stopped responding. Doesn’t answer the phone. I’ve tried PMing him on Facebook where he’s been active. Also have already paid him for the work through PayPal. I emailed him several months ago just asking for the gloves back repaired or not and got no response.

    Bret Stumpf/ The Glove Shop

    Thanks Yocoach, I had used Bret one time previously and the glove turned out great which is why I sent him three the second time. I've been trying to get in touch with him for several months with no luck. Even tried to PM him on this site with no luck.

    Bret Stumpf/ The Glove Shop

    Anyone know how to get in touch with him? I sent him 3 gloves, two A2000’s and a higher end Rawlings back in March for repair. After a month and a half he emailed me and apologized for taking so long, but would have them finished that week and sent out. Since then I have emailed him numerous...

    My DD is 9U player same size as your daughter. She is on her second year with her Wilson A2000 11.75. Has Super skin on back to help with weight, Velcro wrist strap to help her with fit and has been an awesome glove. She plays 2nd and SS.

    Cleat recommendation

    Thanks for the help. I think we are going to try the Ringors. I checked out the New Balance's too. Had a hard time finding wider sizes to fit her.

    Cleat recommendation

    Looking for a cleat recommendation for my DD. She has been wearing Boombah cleats the last couple years. She has been having ankle issues and was diagnosed with a congenital condition in her ankles that requires her to use ankle braces. Does anyone have experience with a wider cleat that...

    Does a bat really "go dead"?

    My daughter has both the 2016 LXT and the CF9 in 29/18. She's 9yr old 78lbs. In my opinion, they hit fairly equal. I've checked exit velocity with pocket radar with both bats. The one thing I've heard is the LXT is slightly more end loaded than the CF9. I couldn't feel it myself, but the...

    Question about dues....

    IMHO, Its all about communication. One of the things I always stress in parent meetings is that I (as coach) should be the first one to hear about potential issues, not the parent sitting beside them. The coach may not know others on the team think its a problem. I suggest talking to the coach.

    Vendetta vs x-12

    My daughter started swinging a 29/18 cf6 as a 7 year old. Then bought her a 29/18 LXT plus that she said felt heavier. I had heard the lxt's felt a little more end loaded. I couldn't feel it myself but she could. She is currently 9, 78lbs and swinging a 29/18 cf9. She seems to like it over...

    Gear for chilly weather

    We use the cold gear shirts from Boombah. Made from Poly material similar to UA, cheaper, and can get them in most colors to match Jerseys. Like what was said in previous post, layer. Have worn two layers of UA in past as well as have hand warmers in both back pockets.

    Playing flat

    FYI, by Rah Rah, I meant team huddles/ getting excited trying to get them up, not yelling at them. I like the music idea. We have used it during practices, not game day though. I do think running helps get their blood moving.
