What size bats are the Slappers using ? With all the stepping out of the box why don't the slappers use a longer lighter bat. Maybe a 34 -11 I don't think many of the slappers are using a 34 -8 or - 9
Demarini did a "slapper" but it sold terrible and was stopped after I think 2 years or so. It
was a drop10 but a bit more weight pushed towards the hands. The niche wasnt there
enough to support production. Slappers dont need a special bat to hit, just one they like.
1st thing DD's slapper coach did was have her ditch her 32" bat for a 34"...
With her being a 14 yo, 5'4" 115 lb. kid at the time I was questioning this in my mind.
Seems to go against everything you read about bat sizing, but it has worked out well especially with the new rule changes.
Was a little peeved as I had a huge inventory of 32" bats... lol
