My daughter is 13 and plays Travel and rec. She is currently using a RXT 33/23. We have been told that we may want to look into getting her a slightly end loaded or end loaded bat. We do not have a problem doing that but where the problem lies is finding one that is end loaded. You look at one site and it says it is a balanced bat but on another site the same bat is end loaded. Open to any suggestions but do not want a ghost of any kind. Rawlings Mantra, and the LXT she has swung and likes thank you for your help
