    Stepping up to a -11

    I'd say go 31/20. Bat manufacturing companies are doing a better job of being closer to sticker weight these days. Worst case scenario, she chokes a half inch for just a little while.

    Small hand glove help.

    Can try out a bradley glove. They are very reasonable priced for a quality glove.

    Catchers Gear for 10u

    LE, don't want to make a new thread. Looking at the Jen Schro the very best set. Daughter is 5'7" to 5'8". 14 yrs old. Debating between the medium and large sets. I know girls don't like catcher sets very big on them so that's why i'm leaning to medium. Any thoughts on sizing of this set?

    Starting Travel Ball (bat recommendations)

    old xeno's used to be heavier bats so i think it has a little bit of a reputation as being an older girls' bat highschool-college age. newer xeno's are closer to weight specs with the rest. I guess my point is xeno's are more uncommon with younger girls thus the girl may not have the...

    Starting Travel Ball (bat recommendations)

    we didn't have a good experience w the white black and gold LXT. maybe we didn't hit it long enough to see the performance improve, felt like a dead bat. we had a original grey/black meta. Liked the bat a lot, sound was great and seemed to give much better out the wrapper performance. Then...

    I'd stick w a 2 piece bat. My daughter swung a mizuno pwr carbon at that age, enjoyed it. You can't really go wrong with many bats at that age. Prisms, CF's, Echo Connect, Ghost lines etc. I worked my kids hard with hitting so i enjoyed buying them nice bats. Bats do help and at 9 and 10...

    Wooden bats?

    i've bought some slow pitch wood bats for my dd. its a bit heavier than her normal bats which i like cause i think it adds strength and power training. I also use it for the purpose of hitting dimple balls off the pitching machine. I don't want that wear and tear on her game/expensive bats.

    Marucci Warranty question

    i think marucci's sound is a bit different than most. more of that glass shattering sound. My dd hit her 2 piece bat to hell and it never "broke".
