Feb. 11, 2013 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Fastest Home to Home Base running time Hey, this is close to my heart, I have always been classed as SLOW. WELL, now I have been told I am fast, What has happened is my age and speed have crossed on the graph. I have always ran at age 70 speed. My age has finaly reached 70. SAD. Oh Well. Glad I can stil run. Have a great 2013 year of SOFTBALL, enjoy....etc... C
Feb. 2, 2013 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: "Swing Makeover Series" Episode #4 now available on youtube. Connecting the Hips to the Hands for max power and consistency bogie, if you watch golf Phil Mickelson really cranks the snap when his hands reach bottom and just befor reaching bottom of swing. The average golfer does not even understand club head acceleration. The softball bat gains speed and power if executed correctly, and, it is not easy. Confidence and knowledge of a swing is required.

Feb. 2, 2013 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: NOV 23 So right DaveDowell, SWING For The Pottie should be banned from this site for bringing this stupid crap up. The board has been free of crap until SFTP brought this subject up again. puke
Jan. 21, 2013 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: loosing toenails Hey marklawr, wait until you get into your 70's Your feet will advance a couple more sizes by then. You need to keep your belly down though or it could be 3 sizes. Guess it is good my feet are now 11.5 instead of 9 as I can still see my toes..... C
Jan. 21, 2013 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Glove Off Season Care Bob, never thaught about that, I rub the V in then rub a paper towel over glove to get excess off. OH, also I will use a hair dryer to sorta melt the V, forgot that in earlier post. I would guess some weight is added. My glove is 14 or so years old and still in good shape, the ball seems to stick to the glove on near misses. I play outfield so sometimes that is very important on a last lunge catch. C
Jan. 21, 2013 crusher	Topic: Bats Discussion: Combat 52 CAL Frank Henry Bruce hello. When you decide to get the black Centenarian out please let us (me) know how it hits. I got one last year for tournament play and some league. 30oz balanced, swings easier than my 26oz Demarini Classic alum bat. Ball comes off bat like the 1st legal Ultra II 30oz balanced bats, or so it seems. Have a great day. C
Jan. 21, 2013 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Glove Off Season Care Wayne 37 - Next time you should get a real Leather glove. Vaseline goes rightinto my Leather Rawlings Glove. After treating glove put a ball in Pocket and wrap up with a towel, the pocket will be perfect. You do this in the off season, not when you are on the playing field. C
Jan. 20, 2013 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Glove Off Season Care Time to treat gloves for upcoming season (where it is still cooler). Get a big jar of Vaseline Petroleum Jelly. Rub it all over outside of glove, then rub all inside of glove, fingers and thumb inside. The Vaseline will go right into the leather and WILL NOT BE SLICK.... Keeps gloves soft inside helping your fingers not get crushed on a hot liner or thrown ball. Note: Will not make gloves slick, they will resist sweat and protect the leather. Gloves will last a lot longer. C
Jan. 12, 2013 crusher	Topic: Bats Discussion: combat centurion This page in top right corner had some special offers of $139 a couple weeks back. Call them. Or 2. Call (must call) Direct Sports and make an offer, state you are Senior Player. My Black Centenarian is Great. Balanced 30oz. Ball is launched like the 30 Ultra II of 10 years ago. Great Bat. If you get one, post and let me know how you like it. C
Jan. 7, 2013 crusher	Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Waiting in Wylie Fr - Welcome to Wylie. I live here also. There are day leagues and night leagues. Send me an e-mail at jamestoyota@sbcglobal.net James
Jan. 5, 2013 crusher	Topic: Bats Discussion: Best Cold Weather Bat Texas Transplant - Have a good year with the Spurs. Guess it is monkey see monkey do.. Harris Auction is moving to 70 also. The Arkies move together. Yeah, hooverdog do not loan him your bat as he will use both hands to swing someone elses bat, you would probably get a 2 piece bat back. C
Jan. 3, 2013 crusher	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: More 1-1 Count Talk Max Pitches per batter: #1 Ball 2 #2 Strike 2 #3 Ball 3 #4 The fowl to give per survey #5 Last possible pitch With a 1-1 starting count I will be swinging on #1 or #2 pitch in the above serino. C
Jan. 3, 2013 crusher	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: More 1-1 Count Talk cleanup (in all lower caps for a reason) YOU SHOULD BE BANNED FROM THIS BOARD AND PLAYING SOFTBALL FOREVER AND EVER FOR JUST MENTIONING THAT GROUP OF CHARACTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dec. 31, 2012 crusher	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: More 1-1 Count Talk Hey Ja - IMO age groups do not have anything to do with this. I have never liked the 1-1 count. I like to hit the ball hard and the 1-1 can be a limiting factor on this. A low pitch that hits front of plate,zip, you now must just strike the next pitch that is close. Takes some fun out of game for me,myself, & I. Keep the 4-3............. C
Dec. 31, 2012 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Statins HJ - Yes it is a possibility. I schedule a blood test for all the side effects of statins every 3 months. So far this has worked for me. C
Dec. 28, 2012 crusher	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Curious about Bat Bags Worth from Direct Sports for $54. Big wheels. Added support on back of bag for strength. Will carry Shoes, 3 bats, glove, cold drinkin insulated pouch, and then you can add a ton of un-needed junk. And is made of heavy/strong material. Only drawback for me is the Fence Hooks are inside a zipper, would prefer on outside of bag. You probably can find many GOOD Strong bags out there. C
Dec. 15, 2012 crusher	Topic: Bats Discussion: blk centurian Swing - I have a 107 swings with about half in sweet area. When you hit ball hard you do not hear a cracking sound like an Ultra II. Guess I do not have the Black Centenarian broke in. It will really be hot when it gets broken in I guess. C
Dec. 13, 2012 crusher	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: AAA Home Run Outs By limiting AAA to 3 HR's then outs can be a big savings for the bruts that can hit 10 or 11 HR's per game... Now they can use a thickwalled bat after hitting the 3 HR's in the 1st inning and not have to put out big dollars buying 4 or 5 composit bats each year. Simple solutions, inc. C
Dec. 13, 2012 crusher	Topic: Bats Discussion: blk centurian I have one and think it is the best of the best. Mine is a balanced 30oz.
Dec. 11, 2012 crusher	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: AAA Home Run Outs Hey BigCat Seven - You are shouting..... I workout year around... WHy I like it... Helps golf and especially Sometimes Hitting A ball out of the park. I see and know guys on other teams that hit a ball out quite often and they also hit line drives depending on the situtation. Could they be M or M+ players. Well May Be... Nothing wrong with one guy getting to play on a local team and hitting a ball out now and then. Now, if your team has 4 or 5 guys that hit the ball out, then you are M or M+. What happens to this local guy, hey (and I) gets walked quite a few times. That is life and Senior Softball. There is a M+ 70 team in Texas that has no one to play, so for 2013 (dam that sounds strange 2013) I hear they have disbanded. Hopefully those guys can find a place to play. See you down the road. C
