Sept. 26, 2008 Airbosn Men's 70 329 posts | Don, Glad to read Kittrell will be at Pensacola. Always fun to watch the younger (lol) guys play hardnose ball. Have a safe trip down. Len |
Sept. 29, 2008 Corky Men's 55 451 posts | Hope they do a better job this year keeping teams in their respective divisions. We a AAA team got stuck in the Platinum division and my butt is still sore from the spankin we got. With no run limits per inning and homeruns at 7 then singles, Kittrell put up 26 in the first inning on us. Took all i could do to keep our coach out of Ridges grill. At least he apologized and refunded our entry fee. |

Oct. 7, 2008 southpaw Men's 70 1077 posts | Hey Robert and Mike, all is well. Heading to Panama City with my wife for vacation on Thursday morning. Hope to play a bit on Saturday with a 60/over team. I thought by now, all the ducks would be lined up and I would get to see a good team in Pensacola. I do hope everything works out for you both. God bless and take care. |
Oct. 7, 2008 Airbosn Men's 70 329 posts | Brackets for the tournament can be viewed at www.exchangepark.net...Look on the left side and scroll down to SPA tournament. The weather in the local area should be wonderful for softball. |
Oct. 7, 2008 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Thanks Len, I'm glad to see the 55's will be playing at Exchange Park. The fields at Exchange and the beach are the main reasons we like to play there. Oh yah, I forgot to mention the local guys also. |
Oct. 7, 2008 M2` Men's 50 11 posts | Thanks Steve, enjoy Florida's Gulf Coast. Firebird680hp... played with Harry tonight and he's working it. I got another tournament for you to go with me and some guys from JAX to Ft Myers in late November. I called my guy and left a message but he hasn't returned the call yet. I bought a Worth 510 for $115 on e-bay and they have more if your interested. |
Oct. 8, 2008 firebird380hp Men's 60 85 posts | I have heard a lot of folks like those 510's. I would like to have one just to see if it fits my swing. Just let me know how or who to get with to buy one.And as far as going to ft.myers to play ball you already know you can count on me to be there....lol My wife may go to this one with me her sister lives at west palm beach or should say she lives there sometime anyway. Mr.Steve I also hope you and your wife have a goodtime.Now thats a vacation I like when I get to play ball. |
Oct. 8, 2008 firebird380hp Men's 60 85 posts | I almost forgto Mike you know that u/2 with the asa stamp I got from you at Dalton.Well I decided to swing it a few times at bp a couple weeks ago.Had a bag with 50 balls in it and after about 15 cuts it busted half into.Had about 15 inch's of it in my hand the rest flew across third base...lol. |
Oct. 12, 2008 Lefty Men's 75 721 posts | I had a great time with bunch of great guys in the Pensacola Tourneyment. Great turn out good balls, umps and the weather was great. I had the chance to use my Worth Launch 510 for the first time in a tourneyment. In my opinion it hits just as well as the Ultra 2. No matter where I hit the ball on the bat handle at the end cap or the sweet spot it hit great. It remind me of the old ultra's. To me it feels just a little end loaded which I like end loaded bats anyway. So if you get a chance to get one. Get it you want be sorry. I have every senior bat made and this one is a winner. It didn't take that many swings to break end. |

Oct. 15, 2008 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Sorry Monty, you could have been very competitive in the 50 Platnum! Maybe Major for 2009??????!! |
Oct. 15, 2008 monty25 Men's 60 113 posts | Yes Bruce we'll see ;) If everyone remains healthy and we get some breaks and don't have to play ya'll. Will you be in Ft.Myers? Later monty25 |
Oct. 15, 2008 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | I'll be there playing as a 60 yr old for the first time!! See you there. |
Oct. 20, 2008 Corky Men's 55 451 posts | Just to set the record straight: Kittrell entered as a 55 team and was moved down to 50 because of their dominance. The 50's had 7 teams. With Kittrell moving down you would think they would have put 4 in the gold and 4 in the silver, but that's too logical for spa. They put 3 in the upper and 5 in the lower. The only tournament I know that penalizes you for being in the winners bracket. The winners played back to back all day saturday and were the last ones to leave the park. Kayson's and Brickyard played the finals of the winners bracket at approx. 9:30pm on saturday night while the losers were home resting and drinking beer. I always thought the idea was to stay in the winners bracket to play fewer games at better times?? Order of finish in the LOWER div. Kayson's Brickyard Ortho Associates congrats to Kaysons |
Oct. 22, 2008 Airbosn Men's 70 329 posts | And finally, 70’s – Pensacola Riptide 65’s – Columbus Rejects 60’s – Express 55’s – Team “P” 60’s 55 Platinum – Pensacola Merchants 50 Gold - Kayson Grill |
