Short Porch Old School Senior Softball Bat Review 

With it being a balanced bat it’s got a little flex in the handle.

Idk I’ve just been using one for so long I’ve just kinda figured it out

Great question but this one does not break in as fast but will last longer. With seniors compression testing now it will be better.

We didn’t get a chance to swing the soda pop

I guess you’re asking about the white wig popper. We busted ours ( so no review) . Now it broke in super fast so I would consider it a medium barrel. Hope that helps

@@FatGuyBP yes that one. I’m not a fan of a one piece but good to know it’s a medium barrel. Thanks for the info

@@ericbutts7447 i love my 1-piece bats but they ain’t for everyone.

This one tested a little higher than the the Soda pop. You’ll need to break this one in a little bit more

This bat because like the Hot Dog, the old school has a Zero Flex handle. The Drip has some flex in the handle.

@@FatGuyBP thank you. I appreciate the feedback. Will definitely be giving this bat a shot.

I really like the Hot Dog myself but both bats are very similar.

Bat is made for guys with low bat Speed. Breaks in faster.

Not sure where you play but I don’t experience the same. Btw the balls were hotter back then. Now I do agree that the new bats have a sweet spot that’s about 30” long.

@@FatGuyBP All I mean is as a whole, the bats and balls nowadays are obviously hotter than ever. We can agree on that. So when you take these bats and balls it’s not that hard to hit a ball 300 feet or more. They have made the game even easier and at the pro level someone one day is gonna get killed with how hard these balls come off the bats. It’s just rediculous and became a home run derby at the pro level. Almost boring to watch but that’s just my opinion. I think it would be more fun to watch and more evenly matched with softer balls. Balance the offensive part of the game and make it a little more defensive. Most outs are. Pissed home runs ya know?

@@gporr7004 yeah but I disagree on the balls. The balls are the softest they have ever been. I actually agree bat technology is insane. The game seems more athletic and guys have had to learn how to hit better because of the HR limits .

The shock to me as a guy recently returned to the game after 27 years of aluminum is how totally dead the new bats seem then suddenly one day it sounds weird and even though you were jammed it short hops the fence. You look sll over the bat for crack and seeing none you go back to hitting and bat makes cracking sound and ball is jumping off bat again like it did before i retired nearly 20 years ago. Not quite like my first Demarini double wall with our rock hard balls in the day but still not bad. Hell i was considering stopping my comeback before that bat suddenly turned into a totally different bat in my hands. That is weird as hell.

@@kevinmccarty8632 the bats are spring boards. It’s rediculous and someone is literally gonna get killed or Hurt real Bad
