DD has a bat that she has used since the beginning of last spring season, through the summer and again through the winter (Nov-April). Now that her spring season is underway, I'm wondering if her bat is starting to lose some of it's pop.
I think it may be ok but how do you know when it's starting to go dead? is it sudden and obvious or subtle and not so obvious. Hits on her bats in the past would seem to become less powerful, or she was growing or some other reason to get a new bat.
She didn't grow this year and at 5'-01/2" is swinging a 32/24. she could maybe go up to a 33 but I'm thinking that's probably about it for her. I got her present bat as a 2-fer so I have a brand new unused version of the same bat and I'm thinking maybe I should just have her start using that
I'm also toying with the idea of maybe moving her up to a Demarini CF3 Black in maybe a 33/24 or 25. But if she's doing fine with her existing bat (Demarini 375), why push her into the big league bat? The other thing is I'm thinking I should wait till next year (HS) for that upgrade.
If I get the CF3, how long should I expect it to last?
I dunno, what do you think?
thanks.
