Discussion: NEW Dudley Lift one piece 2020
Has anyone heard of or does anyone know anything regarding the newest Dudley bats that are supposed to be coming out, the Dudley Lift, one piece, 2020?
13”. Barrrel endloaded Bobby Nifong signature in around the 15th. Comes in 25.5, 26.5 and 27.5 ounce.
I thought the Nifong was a 12" HOTW
There will also be another 1 piece coming out name after " McCarron"
That's what I heard this past weekend in Salem. But no one seems to know any details, like weights and whether there will be more than one model (balanced, end loaded or max loaded).
Just found a video posted today (7/15/19) of the Dudley one-piece Team Mastery Senior Softball Bat. 2019 Mike Hamilton Senior Softball Bat
Here's some info I found: https://cdn2.sportngin.com/attachments/document/7136-1814455/LVSSA_Dudley_HOTW_FAQ_s_-_Mar_2019.pdf
If you are speaking of the new Nifong bat from Dudley I have some in stock now.

Alan, Have you had a chance to swing one yet?

As far as Dudley’s go...it’s better than the Lift and it doesn’t break like the Hot W.

The Dudley Nifong.....That's an end-loaded bat, correct? I think the Dudley "Mastery" bat is out but what about the 2020 Dudley one piece Lift?
Alan - Question is are the production bats that the general public purchase not going to crack early? The demo HotW's that were out weren't cracking like the retail product did. Did Dudley ever say what the issue was I haven't heard anything. I personally wouldn't invest in any HotW product right now until they have been sold over a period of time with good results on performance and durability.
The NiFong bats are end loaded. So far I haven’t experienced or heard of any of the production bats failing like the Hot W did. Only 500 of the NiFong bats were produced at this point.

Hi Alan I have a question for you, I swing the balanced Dudley 1.0 which to me swings like a mid load. Do u think the Miken fusion Jason Kendrick swings close or would you say my Dudley is inbetween it and the Mike Dill in swing weight...
Sorry that is in a 26 oz. model because very interested to buy one like now...thanks for your input!
Also Alan is it your normal size diameter handle approximately 13/16 above grip..I have a condition in my right wrist and am disabled to a certain extent...so swing weight and handle size really makes a difference for me...and if i can get it right i can be a homerun threat which can be a lot of fun. Thank you for your time!
