    Have a little perspective...

    I have kept pretty good records over the years on my daughters softball career. Not just the normal stats but a few other things that might help parents that our moving down a similar path. For a little backdrop, my daughter is a Freshman in college, playing ball at a private NAIA school. I'll...

    College playing opportunities...

    My daughter has worked hard to become an excellent player and has had a successful travel ball and HS career. She is entering her senior season of HS and just finished up playing up for one of the best 18U travel ball teams in the area. By the numbers she is one of the best players both...

    Indian or arrow?

    Test: 12 swings each with 5 different bats off of a tee... throw out top and bottom ball exit speed and average the 10 remaining exit speeds. This test was conducted swinging each bat 2 times and alternating over a couple sessions. The bats were hit in different sequences over each of those...

    Another scoring question...

    Runner on 1st, ball hit hard on the ground in the hole behind second base, 2nd baseman gets to the ball and attempts to field it, bobbles the ball in the dirt and does not make an attempt anywhere... possibly could have gotten runner advancing from 1st to 2nd base with zero shot at batter...

    Back on the bucket...

    Daughter has been playing HS ball the last 12 weeks and has 2 more weeks for the district and state tournaments. She's playing the field in HS ball and has not seen any circle time. We're fine with that as they have 2 of the top pitchers in state. We have tried to at least play underhand catch...

    Close enough... daddy ball...

    I know it's not softball but... My son just made the 12U Travel All-Star baseball team with the local association. He made basically the same team last year. Like last year he's essentially "playing up" because of the league's birthdate cut-off but is the same grade as most of the other...

    OTF Home Runs experience...

    2018 Xeno experience?

    Daughter loves the earlier Xenos and is currently swinging '16 and '17. Based on the info I've found the '18 appears to be virtually the same bat as the past two years with a new end cap which might lead to a more balanced swing. I have an '18 Xeno that just arrived as a warranty replacement for...

    Fall Ball set back...

    1st fall tourney... DD played the field in the pool play games and hit well. Got her pitching start in the 1st bracket game and didn't make it too far... partial torn MCL and dislocated knee cap in her drive/pivot leg. :(

    Another glove thread...

    My daughter is wrapping up her last year of 14U and I'll be honest, we've never really stepped up and purchased her a good glove. Part of the reason why is she absolutely loves the flexibility of the Mizuno Prospect gloves. They're cheap and we go through at least one a year. Unless they totally...
