May 5, 2010 Joncon 328 posts | Son of a ................. Batting practice last weekend with some guys from another team. One guy had a red Ultra that looked pretty new. I'm in the market for a new U2 so I asked him if I could swing it. He said yes and......yep, somewhere in the 15/20 balls I hit.... the bat broke. Do I owe him a new bat? Half a bat? I am asking the question but I know what I need to do. Hey Kenny. Can you find out what the weight was on Bubba's bat. I need to replace it. |

May 5, 2010 Joncon 328 posts | I know. I used to dent and break several bats a year but it's been years since I've done any damage. |
May 5, 2010 4Four4 Men's 60 87 posts | Jon - just ask the man if he thought it was already cracked but be prepared to buy him a new one (about 180). I use the U2Maxload red and I break them. First they crack and the are still hot until the crack breaks. They spiderweb a bit before the crack but its such a good senior bat that I don't care. (My next one is somewhere in UPSland as we speak.) They break easy but don't sweat the small stuff - offer to buy it and he should offer to split it. Good luck this year. DH - #4 ROC City55s |

May 6, 2010 Joncon 328 posts | Thanks Ken. I just got my income tax refund yesterday so the timing is good :) Since the bat was so flimsy, I don't know if he wants another one so I will just get him the cash. I'll be in Prescott this weekend and Vegas the next so I can't get to Ray/I-10 on Sunday. Can I meet up with someone during the week to take care of it? |
May 6, 2010 Lecak Men's 60 1026 posts | Joncon are you coming to Vegas for a tournament? If so who do you play for? |
May 6, 2010 Joncon 328 posts | I am going to Vegas for work. There is an annual trade show with all the new lighting stuff. Is there a senior tournament that weekend? |
