My daughter just turned 11. She plays on a 10U travel team. This is her 5th year playing softball. She is an above average hitter. She is exactly 5 feet tall and 80 lbs. last year she used an AXE bat. 31/19 -12drop. Looking to get her a new bat this season with more pop than theAXE which was just an entry bat. I want to step up and get her something better.

I like the Louisville Slugger 2016 Xeno Plus. It's a 31/20. Drop -11. Found it on Amazon for $199.00. Is this a good choice and price? I would love suggestions. I don't really want to spend much more over $200. Thanks guys

I am a big fan of -10 bats for everyone but slappers. If money is an issue try eBay or Play It Again Sports. Have your DD try some teammates bats during practice.

depending on how often you play, maybe get together with the parents of all the girls, decide on a desired size/weight, and purchase one or two new ones as a group. given their age, they will all outgrow soon anyway.
