HJ, it has not broken yet! I put a lot of swings on this bat when it was new and took a few swings with it again the other day. It is much better now.

The 52 300 is the best option in cooler weather.
It is not nearly as affected by the temperature.

Obviously pitchers wearing masks being mandatory because of this rule. Middles open. Glad I don't pitch anymore, I play somewhere safe....3rd

Two deep breaths and a quick peek at the 1-6 and 5-6 holes. All you need is a single.

Popcorn ready. This will be fun. Now if you said Dirty and Centenarian were the same, ok. But the Ambush is very different than the other "one".

Get some 52-300 balls. Any other ball is going to break your bat faster. 40 cor balls might just be the worst thing for your senior bat. 44 cor balls in anything under 80 degrees don't do it any favors either.

Slight? Only if slight means 45 degrees while staring at the sky! LOL And yes you do need wind aid when you are swinging up! BTW Robo won the HR derby at the Major World Series because his technique allows him to hit it through the wind!

Gee Doc aka Roy Hobbs, not a word of mention for your insanely patient batting coach? I must say you had a good weekend as I "only" hit 7 homers. Then again I think I saw 6 pitches that would have been strikes in 4 games.

Having put 75 of those 100 swings on the Triad Blackout, I'll say this. It will be tempting to swing it in our tournament tomorrow. While side by side it looks just like a Worth Legit, the sound is obviously different. As a person who is very picky about bats, I would not complain if I had to swing the Triad. It is a very nice bat.

Discussion: Softball and hot weather!!

I agree Kevin. My sister lives in Tucson. I have seen them have 110 degrees and a 93 heat index while it was just the opposite here. 93 with a 110 heat index.
For all you guys whining about hitting a Stote in hot weather.... I hit the longest home run of my life in a Florida Half Century Tournament. 83 degrees, super muggy and a $39 a dozen 44-375 ASA Trump Stote with a synthetic cover.

In my experience the sick knuckle balls that take off in odd directions happen when a good ball is hit square on a soft [broken in] bat. I have 2 Yellow Combats that compression test under 100. They both hit the scariest knuckle balls. My USSSA bats tend to do the same just before they break. The micro cell balls are harder than 375 compression with a cushion cover. When squared up they flex the walls a lot and would be more prone to knuckle. As far as the Trump Stote being mush over 85 degrees, welcome to my life in South Florida for about 10 months of the year. LOL

Discussion: Solar Bat Warmes

It isn't the bat that is the problem under 60 degrees people!
It's the ball. The ball gets too hard as it gets colder and will damage your bat.

Discussion: Solar Bat Warmes

I will agree with Alan that this bat is "Legit". I put about 60 swings on it and really liked it.
It is very forgiving especially for a balanced bat. And the fact that it has lasted 340 swings after some of the bombs that I have seen it hit is very good.

Totally jealous that you can get 600 swings out of a 29 oz Reebok. I have had 3 last between 175 and 350 and the current one just passed 200 and is getting scary hot.

Discussion: Miken 2 pc End Load vs Reebok End Load

I agree and the end load varies quite a lot the different size Reeboks. For instance the 29 swings lighter than the 28.

Discussion: Have read different rules for the pitchers would like for ssusa to explain all new rules.

Rule 6.4(C) The pitcher must come to a full and complete stop with the ball in front of the body. The front of the body must face the batter. This position must be maintained at least one second before starting the pitch.
