At my DD's practice on Sunday one of the girls was using a bat that was, well, used up! I have seen some beaten bats before but this one takes the grand prize. IMG_3236.jpgIMG_3237.jpgIMG_3238.jpg

The girl is an 18u player and she is a beast. When I say beast, I mean Bustos type of a beast. She absolutely punishes the ball. She told me that she has been through 5 bats last season alone. She either breaks a composite bat or smashes aluminum bats. She is tired of buying new bats so she uses her damaged bats for batting practice.

Well, change her to a slow pitch bat. If the guys can't tear them up, neither can she. I wish I knew the models of the bats that my DD had in HS. One was a 2 piece blue demarini and the other was a green liquid plasma. They were beasts and would be about 8-10 years old now. (And cheap.)

What weight bat is she swinging? If she can swing that much bat, there are quite a few great SP bats to be had for decent prices.

Btw, if you remember before Bustos was a huge name, she was crushing with an original slowpitch Miken Freak.
