May 15, 2013 BruceAZ	Topic: Bats Discussion: ASA bat Bob, a lot of the guys in our Senior ASA leagues use one of the new Eastons or the Miken Triad. All good bats.
May 8, 2013 BruceAZ	Topic: Bats Discussion: 1.20? Senior Bats with the 1.20 stamps are still legal.

April 22, 2013 BruceAZ	Topic: Bats Discussion: BAT QUESTION Ozzie, as far as I know, all ASA and USSSA bats are approved for SSUSA (Senior tournaments).

April 17, 2013 BruceAZ	Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Gilbert, Arizona What's your contact information Dave? There are a few 50s, 55s and 60s teams that are looking for players.
March 26, 2013 BruceAZ	Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Player looking for 50+ Mens Team in Phoenix AZ Area Mauri, how old are you and what positions do you play? There are a few 50s, 55s and 60s teams in the valley that are always looking for players. There's a tournament next weekend in Phoenix, Apr 6&7, some teams may need players. Welcome to the senior softball message board. Bruce CJ&S 55AAA
March 15, 2013 BruceAZ	Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: New to area - looking for a team 55+ Sorry Dave, being from the East side, I get the 10 and the 60 mixed up.
March 14, 2013 BruceAZ	Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: New to area - looking for a team 55+ Lou, welcome to the board. There's an SSUSA tourney in Phoenix this weekend. I play on a 55 team and we're at Desert West (67th Ave just north of the 60), come on out and introduce yourself and talk to some of the managers, they may be looking for players. Bruce CJ&S 55AAA
Feb. 11, 2013 BruceAZ	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Substitute runner for the batter In our leagues in Az we start 6 feet further than where you are starting, basically like Curty said, behind the catcher by the backstop.
Dec. 19, 2012 BruceAZ	Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Laughlin, nv. tournament 2013 If you mean the Bullhead City tournament across the river from Laughlin, it's Mar 4,5&6. They usually have divisions by skill level, A thru E. It's a good tournament.
Nov. 15, 2012 BruceAZ	Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Winter Worlds-Phoenix Right, 50, 55 & 60s start tomorrow. And I agree having the scores posted is great, thanks Dave. I know you're a busy man but I think most of the guys out there really appreciate you posting the scores daily like this. It keeps guys interested in the tournament even if they're not playing in it.
Nov. 2, 2012 BruceAZ	Topic: Bats Discussion: Miken SPU2P Ultra II USA 2012 AP, I'm done talking to Miken customer service. The USA model U2 I returned was my 9th Ultra II in the past 4 years so I know what it feels like to hit with one and what they sound like and this bat did neither. I sent emails to customer service and to your VP and neither responded so that told me how much they cared. The bat I returned was new with less than 100 swings on it so it may have passed your compression test but it was an under performing bat. I traded it for a Combat, the guy I traded it to is going to use it for BP. You were once the only game in town for Senior bats but you now have competitors with equal or better merchandise and this year you've taken a step backwards and lost a lot of customers.
Oct. 30, 2012 BruceAZ	Topic: Bats Discussion: Miken SPU2P Ultra II USA 2012 My USA model is a dud, I sent it back to Miken and they said it passed their compression test and they sent it back to me. It may have passed their compression test but if you hit with it you know it's a dud. So no matter what Ap39 says, they helped some with replacement bats but they didn't help all and they lost some customers because of it.
Oct. 6, 2012 BruceAZ	Topic: Tournaments Discussion: World Tourn. Updates It sure would be nice if we had nightly updates on what was going on in Vegas this weekend. For the players and teams that couldn't make it and for the players that played last week and have friends on teams that they would like to know how they're doing. $695 x 446 teams = $309970 You would think SSUSA would be able to hire someone for 2 weeks to update the scores on their website each night. Am I asking to much?
Sept. 26, 2012 BruceAZ	Topic: Bats Discussion: Miken is NOT taking care of the problem Ultra IIs Mine was stamped 1.21. I think Miken had a bad batch or 2 but they wouldn't give out the serial numbers of the bad batches, they wanted you to spend $20 to send it in and have it tested.
Aug. 27, 2012 BruceAZ	Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Tanel 360 Top Gun IV - San Clemente I also played in this tournament with my 55AAA team from AZ. We were the only Az team and it was nice to play the CA teams. There was 1 other 55AAA from CA so they grouped us in with the 50AAA teams, which I didn't mind. What I did mind was that we didn't get to play the other 55 team in the seeding games. We did finally get to play each other in the Bracket on Sunday. The tournament could have been run more smoothly, our 1:15 game on Sat didn't start until 2:15 and our last game on Sat night at 7:15 started about 8:45. So we were at the fields from 12:15 PM to 10:00 PM for 3 games. That we didn't enjoy very much but it's always fun and I enjoyed the great weather.
Aug. 27, 2012 BruceAZ	Topic: Bats Discussion: Miken is NOT taking care of the problem Ultra IIs Got my USA model back today with the same letter every one else got, "Thanks for sending it in but it passed our tests and we're sending it back". They said they did a compression test and a field test. The bat may have passed their compression test but the bat under performs from what we expect from an Ultra II. I guess I'll be using it for BP, but it's my last Miken. I saw Gorilla Boy has a new Combat out, a 2 piece Senior Bat (Twilight), I'm going to have him send me one.
