    Ghost Unlimted feedback

    whats crazy is this is the EXACT same location all of my DD's GA's (on number 4 now) have broke. All drop 10's. Were instructed also to go to drop 9's. Was hoping the one piece may have cured it but doesnt look that way. Advising people to swing a heavier shorter stick shouldn't be the cure...

    Dealing with field conditions

    That is one thing that has me puzzled I see opposing pitchers adapt to the conditions. Those that do the best are local teams used to the conditions. Im gonna have to bring in a trencher to mimic conditions we saw this weekend. The hole was legit 8" deep. Something new to me though this weekend...

    Dealing with field conditions

    I have been struggling with my pitchers this season being able to adjust to various field conditions. This past weekend the circle was powder dirt basically digging a giant crater with every pitch. This has really been affecting my pitchers abilities to locate especially high/low in the strike...

    Easton backs up their warranty

    See thats not the part that chaps me. I spoke to customer service who instructed me to return it knowing it was two months past warranty date. Paid $45 to ship that bat and then it gets denied. I cant imagine why people who drop thousands on bats that dont last would be upset, but i get it two...

    Easton backs up their warranty

    Just so everyone on here knows Easton DOES NOT do this for every case. I just received a bat back in the mail that like the OP was also out of warranty and was instructed BY EASTON to return the bat and then after paying out of pocket to return was denied and sent back to me. This was a 2020 GA...

    Drop rate between Freshman year of school and travel ball

    Wanted to see what other travel ball coaches are seeing between the transition of first year of school ball to travel ball in summer. Here in KS we are just wrapping up tryouts, and first couple weeks of practices for school ball. Already I am hearing stories from players on our travel team...

    The Decline of Umpiring

    So i read bits and pieces of this post and debated commenting or not. This past year I decided to volunteer to ump for USA tournaments, and our local city league. Having been a FP coach for a decade, it was an easy transition rules wise. Here is what I learned from just one year behind the...

    Anyone use a Ghost Advanced that didn't break

    Dec or Jan I will be buying one from you. DD said the heck with Bday and Xmas she wants another bat lol... New uniforms for team, along with reorders of things out grown, team bags, helmets, and a ton a spikes/turfs from Ringor. That isnt a fraction of the stack in my garage right now.

    2022 Easton Ghost; Is This Cracked?

    MY DD has two GA's in her bag both smoked with cracks like shown in the earlier pages. Currently swinging the latest Xeno. My assistant coaches DDs have a GA and a new DS both of which are already cracked and he is now on the GA replacement and the DS is on the way. I have an entire bag of older...

    Slapper defense

    Hear me out on this one.. Every time we face a good slapper or drag bunter they alter their path for inside pitches and lay it down, very rarely do I get the results I am looking for when I try to jam them up. If you watch most players learning those skills they have a tendency to want to...

    Video analysis software

    Coaches eye is one I am looking into. I like I can record on anything and upload via the web. We have Blast but it runs like crap on android... looking to buy an apple product just to use it (which seems like a huge waste of money). I just like the metrics it gives me.

    Video analysis software

    Since my Rightview pro thread got a ton of attentions lets try this instead... What software do you recommend to view batting in slow mo that has markup capability?

    Video analysis software

    Also how does it compare to using blast motion to do the same thing? We have blast now, but not the ability to compare swings.
