Help selecting the right bat for my DD

[Hyper Henry]

Looking for suggestions on what bat I should buy for my DD (B-Day is coming up...). She's NOT a big strong kid by anymeans (5'2" 95 lbs.) so relies on good technique. She plays on a 12U travelling team and had used a HALO Light 30" 18 oz. -12 on her 10U team but abviously is too small now.Actually might have even been too small back then???
Anyway she has been using an Worth aluminum 31" 20.5 oz -10.5 for the start of this season but just seems like it doesn't have the pop like I see from other bats. I don't mind paying top dollar as long as I get my moneys worth. All experienced comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks

If she can get her to try some of her teammates' bats and see what she likes. In particular, try the Xeno, Demarini, Stealth.

Don't get one too heavy thinking she'll grow into it. But don't get one that's too light either. Try a 31/21 or 32/22 against pitching if possible and look for pop off the bat, not just getting the bat in the way of the ball on time.

I would go 32-22. Synergy, Stealth, CF-4. Whichever she likes best. Synergy is $50 less than the others. A ton of college kids use it. Most of my 16U use it and love it. She should be set for 2 years with that 32-22 and it should hold at least 50% of it's value so if it's $300 you are really just borrowing it for $150 until you resell it. I would not go Rockettech. Swing weight feels too heavy.

12U. My DD is 12U and gets huge hits from her 30/18.5 Synge. Now there are 5 Synge bats on her team. The girls love the pop from that bat.
