| Jan. 7 Lecak Men's 60 1026 posts | New Miken Ultra 1/4 oz end load painted grey If the majority of seniors don't want hot equipment how does anyone explain how this bat is making it to market. I see some places are marketing it that the original is back. I'm pretty sure senior softball players are not sheep for those who think that SSUSA or the bat companies, or the direct sellers are manipulating the market to make more money. I'll bet these things will sell like crazy. |
| Jan. 8 Lefty Men's 75 721 posts | r The ones that are always fighting about this hot bat or this great ball are 10 of the same ones daily. So that does not make them the majority of the seniors playing tourneyment ball out in the real world of senior softball. Some of them have names and some of them don't. I like the ones that identify themselves and a card carrier. |
| Jan. 8 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | r I agree with both Joe's. I guess that the U2 Maxload is just too endloaded for some. |
| Jan. 8 E4/E6 Men's 70 873 posts | r How do we know this new bat is hot. Just because its endloaded doesnt mean it will be built the same as the Original Maxload. It would seem to be Great marketing to advertise a Gray Miken Endload. I'm sure the bat mfg's listen or monitor this and other sites. They are aware of the controvery over their Senior bats. |
| Jan. 8 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | r Whoever said the majority of seniors do not want hot equipment? This is very much quite the opposite. |
| Jan. 8 bullet Men's 55 146 posts | r A bat is only as "hot" as they guy swinging it.Give me a toothpick and i'll hit bullets at you. |
| Jan. 8 E4/E6 Men's 70 873 posts | r Just because they build it doesnt mean the majority wants it. We use Senior equipment to remain competitive. If Senior Bats went away tomorrow I doubt many would complain for long, as long as we have a "Lively" ball. I would be one of the many to complain, even though I am a proponent of earlier days when we used lesser bats, I want the same advantages as the next guy. Bullet, do you hit with Senior bats? |
| Jan. 8 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | r I guess bullet has very tiny hands. |
| Jan. 8 Dirty Men's 50 1371 posts | r bullet, you won't hit them at me. LOL Just kidding. :) How is the off-season going? I agree that good hitters will hit with anything, but the special bats make decent hitters good and weaker hitters often at least decent. And I am not sure that is how it should be. |
| Jan. 8 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | r joe ,bruce,as E4/E6 says,its not just the about hot combo we have,its that it takes away a large part of the game,namely defense.also as he says,take either the ball or bats away and we will still play.i would be satisfied with ASA equipment personally if we went to that change,but in order to stay competitive we have to use what is out there for now or its like taking a knife to a gun fight.what i really would like to see is the 52-275 ball with our senior bats "so as no one would feel the need to cheat with a shaved bat".it would bring defense back into the game,big boys would still get their hr's,base hitters would still be base hitters,there would be no more mishit hr's by guys who shouldn't be doing it in the first place. |
| Jan. 8 bullet Men's 55 146 posts | r Dirty,my off season is going well.Been spending alot of time at the gym.How is yours going. You playing in doors in Medina. |
| Jan. 9 Corky Men's 55 451 posts | r Bullet.....the last time I saw your bag in the dugout you had at least 4 or 5 Ultra's still in the box. Howz it goin buddy! |
| Jan. 9 SLOBALL1 Men's 50 174 posts | r I know that I'm in the minority, but I don't swing Senior bats and have never swung ANY model Miken bat. |
| Jan. 9 spoonplugger Men's 60 95 posts | r SLOBALL 1, really now ! See Sloball 1's posts: March 13, 2009 Feb 16, 2009 Sept 7, 2008 Jan 8, 2008 HMMMMMM! |
| Jan. 9 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | r Spoonplugger, don't be so quick to judge. Maybe Sloball1 just buys senior bats and doesn't swing them. I also see from his Oct 10, 2009 post that he has the ASA Toxic and a Senior Toxic. Am I right Sloball1? |
| Jan. 9 SLOBALL1 Men's 50 174 posts | r Yea,I'm a bat seller. I only swing Worth bats-have never swung anything else. |
| Jan. 9 spoonplugger Men's 60 95 posts | r SLOBALL 1- Jan 8, 2008 "the exception being the Ultra 11" Maybe this was before you starting selling worth bats. Spoonplugger |
| Jan. 9 SLOBALL1 Men's 50 174 posts | r I swing USSSA Worth m75120 and the USSSA Worth Titan as a back up.ASA I swing Worth M75 and the Red & Yellow Jeff Hall Mutant.My teammates will say the same. |
| Jan. 9 spoonplugger Men's 60 95 posts | r SLOBALL 1-- Nice try-- You were swinging senior bats less than 1 year ago. Feb 16, 2009 "used yellow senior combat, didn't like grey one either. You must only sell Worth once in a while. Good-Bye, Spoonplugger |
| Jan. 9 Dirty Men's 50 1371 posts | r Yea Paul, still up there on Thursday nights. Starting another session this week. Not as many guys as we used to have, but enough to make a go of it. |
| Jan. 9 bullet Men's 55 146 posts | r Hey Corky,how is it going there.You guys get your 55 team together. To spoonplugger,i played with Sloball last year,an he didn't use senior bats.BUT the way he hits the ball you would think he did. |
| Jan. 9 Corky Men's 55 451 posts | r bullet...It looks good on paper....got a meeting this thursday. Basically the Legends 55's with our 50's that are ready to move up.....13 on the roster so far. Good Luck to You Ralph and the boys. |
