Looking for 2021 LXT thoughts/reviews

[_MIA_]

What's your point here? I think a 5' tall college player can swing a 34" wand no problem.

It sounded like you were saying that a 5' college girl shouldn't be swinging a 34" bat. Obviously you were not.

Not sure why you felt the need to speak for AD. He does fine all by his lonesome.

Because I felt like it? Next time I will ask your permission before I chime in.

Haha no exactly the opposite. I thought madbandit was a little misguided in their suggestion of bat/glove size.

I would say 12” is on the big side for d1 mi from what dd has told me from camps. I would have loved to have looked at their equipment but you can’t really get close enough to see unless you want to look like a weirdo that gets your dd blackballed.

Here is what my dd is currently using. College freshman, playing 2b. Wilson A2000 DW5. At the time AD recommended her first DW5 I think she was playing 3b in the summer and ss in the spring for her hs.

But you’ve got to realize, 12” baseball gloves like the Pro1000 and the DW5 are on the small side for a 12“ glove. Both tape out right around 11.75”. I’ve had two different DW5’s in my hands before, I thought both of them seemed smaller / tighter than the Pro1000. Both are fantastic infield patterns!

That old DW5 thread for your DD was a great thread!

She loved that glove. It has a ton of miles on it, have been thinking about getting it redone by Schmicks.

Back to bats....

Coach Lisle posted this last night. Apparently I suck....

You are not going to get any argument from me if you say 12" is too big..

My DD uses a 31/21 and she is 5'4" 150#. I have been thinking she needs to get to 32/22 but she is still late on the faster pitchers...even though her bat speed is lightning fast. I think we will move up when she moves to 14U and 43'.

DD has swung 2014, 2015 and 2016 LXTs and moved to 2018 Xeno a couple years ago. The 2018 was her absolute favorite. She broke the 2020 Xeno at connection after 6 weeks of use and when I called for a warranty replacement was told it was a very common complaint. (She is not a power hitter - she a contact hitter/slapper who finds the gaps).

She got a 2021 LXT 33/23 as a replacement and is still trying to decide if she likes it. It doesn't have that traditional sound that LXTs have had in the past. When she first started using it she said it sounded like a Demarini and she hated it. She has grown a little more fond of it but still wants me to try to find another 2018 Xeno.
