I’m almost brand new at this slow pitch, so idk if I like the one pieces as I hardly have anyone around that does BP. My gamer and my first bat ever is actually that kretcher (27oz) I love the thing with I would’ve gone up to 28 though but I can still reach 300 pretty regularly. Love your videos and thanks for helping my journey from getting my swing down and watching your sessions on BP what you’re looking for
what would you recommend for me? my favorite bat was the old Easton st100 balanced bat. It was a 13.5 inch barrel and from my understanding had a stiffer handle than most balanced bats do. i could be wrong about whether the handle itself was a stiffer or a flexier handle. Do you think the tantrum 13inch balanced would feel similar? on top of that i mostly swing 220's so if there's something else you'd recommend that feels more close to that bat, it would be a huge help.
If you dont have to have a 240 bat, then I would recommend the older Worth EST balanced. It was orange. If you wanna go new, I think the miken primo balanced or this 13" balanced Tantrum would feel great. The flex really doesn't affect it much. I have heard good things on the LS Genius balanced too.
Do you see power hitting conference guys generally swinging heavier bats (27/28 oz) and more OBP guys swinging lighter (25-26 oz)? Curious to see what weights these guys are swinging,
I dont really see that too much. I think it's more preference. I think most are swinging 26 or 27. Then a few of the bigger guys might be on 28oz. And maybe a few on 25oz. But I don't see a correlation like you were mentioning.
You still selling those BP buddies? I see a fresh one in the back ground, LOL. I got one years ago through my boy Terry Hyatt with both of you guys on your label. But don’t see them available anywhere. Mine so old that the fingers have broken after about 5 years of abuse. Everyone loves the idea and wants one in San Diego area. Any help will be appreciated.
ASP doesn't have them but Miken just released a DC41 Supermax that looks exactly like the OG with a red knob and everything... This years Mikens have been fire, so I'm sure it will be hot.
It is a 240. The specs are 12.75" barrel. It has an XL endload. I don't have any to sell, but try Worthsports.com or there might be some dealers that still have some left.
That’s cool. My boy and I were at the games all day Saturday, until the rain delay. Great day of softball. Did you play in the tournament or just come watch?
