My daughter is excited about getting a new bat and has saved up $40 towards the purchase of a Demarini Bustos, model WTDXBFP, with the alloy barrel and the composite handle. Does this bat need to be broken in before it will really start to get quality performance? And is it ok to use with a pitching machine/dimpled balls? We're getting lots of rain, so we will be indoors a lot this month. I thought of telling her it should only be used for games and her lessons, but I don't want to be overly protective of the equipment if it's not necessary and if it does need to be broken in, then I want her swinging it whenever she can to get there.
Any advice?
