Sorry- didn’t make my point very well at all. That was kind of a “drive by” comment that wasn’t expressed very well.Yes, and they have another sitting there when that fails. They dont have to wait for returns
dept to get a replacement bat to use. So they dont care about "saving" swings. One breaks, another
one is handed to them asap. So you think they care about using one for bp, soft toss and everything
else...no. Its not on their dime.
Way different mindset..cant compare someone who has bats supplied to people who dont.
DD#1 was at an Easton school when the Ghost came out. At that time I asked her how many broken bats she had seen- I am sure I posted about it at the time. It wasn’t any more than the Mako and Stealth Speed junk they were swinging prior. I think she remembered seeing one. They hit a lot- and a lot of machine balls.
DD#2 is at a Louisville school. She thinks pretty much everyone swings LXT over Xeno. She knows one player that broke an LXT. (I’m sure there are probably more but one was all she knew of.). I don't know much about that player yet- asked if she was a power hitter. She said she was a ”hit for average” type hitter.
What I’m saying is these players are putting hard miles on these bats and they aren’t failing left and right like some would have you believe. Why not? They are bigger and stronger. They hit bags, dimple balls and live pitching, including against some Super Seniors with true speed and movement that HAS to induce mis-hits.
There HAS to be some parents on here whose daughter is attending an Easton school. I‘d like to hear what those players would say about their dual stamps and GA’s.
