| Sept. 23, 2016 king 44 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Zytiga/Prednizone Surf, I have Rheumatoid arthritis and will have flare up of joints to the point where it is very painful to even walk. Under doctors supervision i will have to take sometimes even to play. The main side effect i have is weight gain when using. We played a tournament a month ago i left work Friday with no pain and Saturday morning barely able to walk so i took a couple of pills and the pain went away we played 5 games on Saturday. We picked up a player to play and he suggested to a couple of players to rub on some Absorbine Veterinary linament i did not use. The other guys said it relieved the pain. Sunday morning barely able to walk. Monday morning still in pain after work i decided to buy some Absorbine to try that night. Tuesday morning 80% of pain gone and Wednesday 100% pain free. I also have L3, L4 & L5 disc degenerating and pain. I applied to my back for 3-days and now am pain free for 3-weeks. Just thought i would share this as a possible alternative to reduce pain and swelling. The formula for humans is Absorbine Jr. which I have never tried. |
| May 1, 2015 king 44 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: BP in Jacksonville Fl Is there anyone in Jacksonville Fl taking batting practice after 5pm next week Mon - Thurs. If so please post address. In town for work close to NAS. |
| Dec. 4, 2014 king 44 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: courtesy runners My situation last year I had to have several cortisone shots in my foot to even be able to play. I would rather run for myself but after a couple of games I could barely walk and felt like I was a burden for other players to run for me but I probably would not be able to finish the tournaments. Hopefully the surgery I had a couple of weeks ago will fix my problem for next year. I would suggest to speed up the game to do like our team did and have the courtesy runners ready as soon as time has been called. I also believe like Bruce suggested to make the time limit 90 minutes with all the money the sponsors and players spend to play. |
| Nov. 5, 2014 king 44 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: courtesy runners Tri18 I just hit a friends 27oz freak black and he said he had 200 cuts on the bat and it felt a little lighter than 27oz. I was not impressed with the bat and had an Easton Elder 27oz with 30 cuts on the bat and I would compare the Miken freak black with the Easton at this point. I have not been playing since the Pensacola tournament in Oct and my timing was a little off. By the way the original Miken U2 was hitting the super duper blue dots min 47 core 675 compression and they were a little better on bats than the fire balls we are hitting now. Some teams were hitting the zn's which would destroy Alum and composite bats. AP Miken, Can you list your contact info I have a question I would like to ask you off the board about the Miken Big Cat. |
| Oct. 4, 2014 king 44 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: JEALOUSY AND ENVY ONE OF MANS MANY WEAKNESSES Canseco brothers, Welcome to senior softball, Personably I would love to see you or Jose or Both in any home run derby at any 50 + tournaments. Being former MLB ball players obviously you are very talented. I have not seen either of you hit softball's but it would be interesting to see how some of the better senior softball home run hitters in distance will be able to keep up with the Canseco's. Several teams have one person that hits the ball further than you are suppose to including ours. |
| May 9, 2014 king 44 | Topic: Bats Discussion: Senior Easton I called Easton today not expecting anything but told them how many swings I had on the bat and it is a non warranty bat and they offered to replace the bat. Thanks Easton. |
| May 8, 2014 king 44 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Bill Gore I am sure it is the same Bill Gore because my dad retired from Hurlburt AFB in 74 and he golfed, bowled and played softball against Bill. Great guy and still a great player. |
| May 1, 2014 king 44 | Topic: Bats Discussion: Senior Easton Unfortinally the first game in Cartersville GA this weekend the Easton broke after 100-120 swings. I wanted to make sure but with all the rain in NW FL I could not hit with the Easton bat until today. |
| April 22, 2014 king 44 | Topic: Bats Discussion: Senior Easton I did a comparison using a 2-pc 27 oz miken U2 end loaded with approx. 20 swings on the bat, a well broke in 2-pc 27 oz miken U2 balanced and the new Easton Elder 27oz balanced with approx. 75-100 swings. The balls we used were well used classic m various brands and a few baden fire balls. I hit 2-ea. rounds with 30-40 balls in two five gallon buckets rotating the bats during the round. 1st end loaded U2, Easton the Balanced U2. I am no expert but the Easton is already hitting as far as the U2's and I feel Easton has a WINNER with this bat as long as it holds up and time will tell. When I first got the bat it felt like a log and it is getting better with more swings. Hope this info helps. |
| July 2, 2013 king 44 | Topic: Bats Discussion: usssa bats Thanks Allen and Bruce I purchased a 27oz psyco and hit at batting practice split 1/2 bucket of 25 balls each with 2-rounds and the 28oz end loaded Z2000 better in distance but was happy with the psyco. with the psyco I hit about 1/2 in the 320-330ft with several line drives off the fence, The Z2ooo was in the 330-350 range with several line drives at the fence and a few miss hits slightly over the fence. Both bats are good in my opinion but I will see about the durability. Thanks again, Mike. |
| June 30, 2013 king 44 | Topic: Bats Discussion: usssa bats TRI 18 Have you tested any usssa bats with the new stamps? I am an Easton fan for durability and pop but had a Z2000 which was not the bad batch and broke in 30 swings and just recieved it back after 2-month's waiting. Have you tested the Mizuno,Miken,Easton's? |
| March 30, 2013 king 44 | Topic: Bats Discussion: Z2000 vs miken ultra II Good bat but mine only lasted 25-30 swings. Will be calling on Monday for warrantee. Will update with louisville response. 28 oz balanced. |
| Oct. 15, 2011 king 44 | Topic: Bats Discussion: Anyone else swing utrip bats? I use the green stealth +. This bat has a bigger sweet spot and is very close to the distance of the U2. I have had this bat since it came out and use it year round including cold weather. I was only able to play 3 tournaments this year and broke 2 U2's. I also purchased a Miken MV1 for my son and once broke in it hits well. |
