    Demarini CF9 -11 alternative for 10U hitter

    It was one of his Monday Madness deals last week. Looks like it is 219 now for 2016 model.

    Demarini CF9 -11 alternative for 10U hitter

    I'm tempted to try the 2016 LXT -11 that closeoutbats has for 189 and hope that Demarini comes through with another replacement.

    Demarini CF9 -11 alternative for 10U hitter

    Everybody says they are more durable once you move to -10, but I don't think most of them are ready yet. They are playing A and B class 10U tournaments. We have had quite a few break in a matter of weeks.

    Demarini CF9 -11 alternative for 10U hitter

    Looking for thoughts on the best alternative the the Demarini Cf9 -11. That bat is far and away the most popular bat in 10U tournaments that we see. 9 of our 11 girls swing it and I see similar ratios on other teams. The is without question hot. The problem we have is that we are breaking...

    Custom Vinci

    Thought I would post a few pics of the custom Vinci Drakemir had made for my daughter. It's basically a BV1929 with the webbing swapped out to be H-web. Turned out great. I thought I was prepared for how stiff the kip would be after reading all the reviews here, but I was still a little...

    Where to buy softballs?

    I'm looking to pickup a couple dozen 11 inch balls. Where is everyone finding the best deal? The ones I grabbed at academy have not lasted. I'm looking for good quality balls.

    Looking for the right Glove

    Can 9 year olds handle these high end gloves? I have very little experience with high end gloves, but I'm envisioning them not being able to squeeze the thing closed even after break in. I was following the thread about Vinci's PC leather, wondering if it is a good compromise between the low...

    Looking for the right Glove

    My situation is almost identical so I'll be following this thread. Daughter is turning 9, plays SS with a travel ball team and is using a Mizuno MVP 11.5 that has been good but is getting floppy. I'm starting to search for her next option as well.

    Vinci question

    Please post back any additional details you find about this new PC leather. I've traded a few emails with casedawg and am considering ordering a BV1929 made from this leather for my daughter. There is not much about it online when I search so if you've learned anything from your research...

    Mid tier glove

    I ended up ordering the 5 gloves below to have her tryout. She immediately fell in love with the GMVP1159P and coming back to it after trying the others. I was hoping she would like one of the 12 inch gloves, but she said they all felt big. So we settled on the GMVP1159P. It is a 11.5 inch...

    Mid tier glove

    Thanks everybody. I think I'm going to order several of the models mentioned from justballgloves.com and have her try them on. I've checked Academy and Dicks locally, and they don't have them.

    Mid tier glove

    That MVP series is the one I keep coming back to, although I don't see the GMVP 1159P on their site anymore. I'm guessing it must be a prior years model. I'm assuming the one below is the current 11.5 model. Anybody have any experience with it? Or know how it differs from the prior 1159...

    Mid tier glove

    Looking for some glove recommendations. My daughter is playing 8U travel ball and will be moving up in the fall to 10U. She plays mostly infield, but has started to see a little time in CF. Her current glove is a cheap Rawlings FP115, which is the second one she's been through. They aren't...
