My 11 year old son was using a Easton Mako and a Combat with the prior standard. Our league switched to the new USA Baseball standard at the beginning of the 2018 fall It did not seem to matter what bat he used he could still hit home runs and to the fence without any problems. The Solo bat works well for him after trying a few others and not liking them. It would be my decision to buy another if he destroyed it I do hope there will be some better bats in 2019 that are more reasonably priced.
am not sure if my Daughter was having an off season but despite having more balls in play than anyone else on the team, she didn't put up power numbers the first season (despite cage training every weekend). As Easton, her older brother, seemed to have more pop, this bat did not seem to have the same appeal. The night after her third to last game of the season, I let her stay late and threw her a couple buckets and she seemed to be hitting the ball with ease. Her routine is to hit the ball over the heads of outfielders since then. The ball has now begun to fly off the bat after taking a lot more swings than anticipated.
During allstars, this was the team bat. Our team used it for 4 tournaments, and almost everyone on the team had no problems with it. It was a The boys preferred this one over the Ghost X, which we had on the team.
It seems that all of these bats from the United States are A defective one was delivered to us. The present was given as a gift. It had been too long since I returned, but there were no visible problems. In the event we do not hit the sweet spot, the vibrations are very loud. As a proud, stubborn individual, he is an inspiration to me. After he kept using it, his hands began to swell as the vibrating caused them to swell. It was finally my turn and one hit outside the sweet spot quickly led me to tell him to not use it anymore. It's just a matter of biting the bullet and buying another In the long run, playing.
This product is of excellent quality and looks great. Considering he dislikes batting gloves, grip is important to him and the lizard grip on this bat is a hit with him. Since this was a size upgrade for him, he is still getting used to it, but the ball is definitely hitting farther! I am certain that he won't be using the old bat again. I am providing this information to reviewers because my son is small for his age - 10 years old As an example, he went from a 29" to a 28" This bat has a 2 1/4" barrel, which is 30", plus one inch (-0. 5 inch). I want to use 11) 2 5/8" barrels.
I have not had to worry about the boy bugging me for a new bat next Spring because he loves this bat. Fortunately, it plays true to weight and helps the boy's swing balance, as it is a USA bat. Our customers regularly tell us that Slugger's youth bats are the best on the market. Despite veering from course with some purchases, we always end up with the most consistent youth bats. The only thing I can say about this stick is to buy it as soon as you try.
The bat is great, and the price is fair. This is a very balanced statement. My 11 year-old, who is slightly undersized, fits perfectly in a drop 11, which is hard to find without spending a lot of money. The system has started to be used by other boys as well. As the "magic bat", it is widely regarded as a mystical creature. It would be nice if it was still available when he grew up.
The pop on this bat is solid, the sweet spot is easily audible, and the grip is very nice. I'm very pleased with it for my kid in 10U. It is a bat I would recommend highly.
