    Proud of my kid today!

    Congrats! That is so exciting! So glad you were able to see it in person. Quite an accomplishment! My DD hit her 100th recently too. :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Glove help - College outfielder

    So - just coming back to comment on this. DD was able to borrow a glove for a couple weeks and I found a great deal on a new A2000 (one perk of being a lefty! Haha). DD has gone to the gym and caught 400-500 balls off the pitching machine everyday for about 10 days. She has also been beating the...

    Glove help - College outfielder

    Yeah it was shocking for sure! She has been pretty sick for a couple days so I kept asking her. Are you sure you remember where you parked it? I never in a million years would've expected it where she lives. We've been talking with someone about subletting her apartment this summer, and I told...

    Glove help - College outfielder

    $200 for contents! Hahahaha! So like 1/2 of a bat or glove. And she had multiple in the car! Plus her helmet and cleats and bag and tee and net... Her school is helping her with some things but clearly not everything. But I have been blown away by her teammates generosity as well. The softball...

    Glove help - College outfielder

    Well it was her baby - it was a 2002 Yukon - Bwhahaha! Her softball equipment was probably worth more than the car! But geez - good used cars are impossible to find! We just bought my 16 year old a new to him car in Nov and it took forever to find something! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Glove help - College outfielder

    Thank you all for the advice! As funny as it sounds I think I am more upset about the missing softball stuff than I am about the car! Haha! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Glove help - College outfielder

    She's a lefty. Do you have a LHT version? Just out of curiosity - how long realistically does it take to break in an A2000? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Probably 12.5? I think that's what her others were

    Glove help - College outfielder

    DD's car was stolen this week with all her softball gear in it. (Yes - I know, I know - we have told her 100s of times to always take her gear inside but...) She is a college outfielder and lost 2 gloves (a pancake Liberty Advanced) and a not quite broken in A2000 (along with bats and other...

    Broken Ghost?

    DD has a 2021 or 2022 ghost - can't remember which. Purchased it in Sept of last year so it's still (barely) under warranty. No visible cracks but as my daughter describes it "it sounds like a full on maraca" when she shakes it or hits a ball. It passed inspection at PGF - haha! So broken or...

    Colleges/Universities with high academic standards (engineering)

    DD will be attending Colorado School of Mines this fall. She has 3 friends who just finished their freshman year there now and they all love it. 2 play softball one plays soccer. New coach this year for softball - definitely a rebuilding year but lots of talent. If you have any questions feel...

    Thoughts on why DD's bats keep breaking at connection?

    DD has broken 2 LXTs and one Xeno in the last year. All at connection. The Xeno literally snapped in half - the LXTs wobble horribly and you can twist them at connection. She uses an old Xeno off pitching machines - not her "game bat". She takes good care of her equipment - bringing stuff in the...

    idt in colorado this week

    Haha! So true! But I will say the general energy at the park this year is so different from years past. I feel like people are happy to be back doing what they love and maybe the past year has been a reminder of what's really important! (Of course I am bing a little Pollyanna-ish... ) but I do...

    idt in colorado this week

    DD's team hosts the IDT. I feel like people are so glad to be back out at these big events. Everyone is happy, players and fans are cheering each other on and good plays on both sides of the field have been celebrated by fans on both sides. It is a beautiful thing to see. The sheer number of...

    Glove for Leftie Outfielder

    I will second this! DD used this as her first real glove. She loved it! (Before moving to the Liberty Advanced) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sigh - 2 broken bats in 5 months

    Ok - help me out here. I am reading the posts about the ghost adv shown above and how it is possibly not broken and I'm just second guessing things. My daughter has been complaining for a week that her bat felt "off" at the last tourney. If you hold it at arms length and give it a shake you...

    Glove for Leftie Outfielder

    My lefty has a Liberty Advanced too. Loves that glove. She "upgraded" to an A2000 but she put it in the closet and went back to her Liberty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sigh - 2 broken bats in 5 months

    Yup - this exactly! We need 2 bats. This second broken bat is the warranty bat so they won't replace it. It just boggles my mind. Have to figure something out quickly here. HS season is fall for us - but she does have a tourney next weekend and no bat. [emoji53] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
