Went to D-bat for the first time and it was a cool experience! Also played a tournament last weekend and had my best weekend yet, going 8-10 on the day!! .800 is absolutely insane to me, really starting to see my results translate to the games!

Miken Freak Dirty Money ASA. I've mostly used it in temps above 60°.

The clacking sound has been there, but I was told it's the new tech for all Rawlings bats this year (Miken/Worth/Easton). Still hitting the ball hard and almost hit a HR with it a couple weeks ago. But all my teammates swear it's broken.

(I'd attach pics to show some marks on the barrel, but the way reddit is set up...)

I got this term from the basketball unethical hooper. Unethical as in what the player does is technically allowed but is often extremely frowned upon by opposing teams or fans. Things like flopping to the point where refs don't think it's blatant enough to warrant a technical foul. Or grabbing opponents because refs don't call it.

What are some softball examples of this? What is considered an unethical ball player? Something that is technically not against the rulebook but is commonly frowned upon.

Hi all, I wear glasses. It hasnt been an issue yet, but thought id look into some eyewear to use during games just in case. I play in a casual league but im always half afraid that something might happen and my glasse sfalling off or breaking.

If anyone's got any suggestions im all ears. Im not looking to break the bank, i play super casual leagues and go to a crossfit gym and that's about it, would just rather have something without the fear of it falling off.

What are your top 10 for USSSA?

Just curious, I’ve been using a combat but would like to see what is the overall favorite.

Curious if there is a specific time frame this happens. Most all 26 ASA bats are sold out, i see a few Utrip releases here and there. Just curious when the official 2027 lineups will come out.

I’ve been looking for a new bat for my girlfriend for her birthday. Her bat measurements are 31inch, 21oz FS 200. The lightest bats I can find are 24/25oz around 34inches. Would the change in sizes mess up her swing? (I know nothing about softball lol). Also any recs would be amazing!

Who has swung the new 2.0 stuff? How is it in comparison to the other tech?

I started playing slowpitch at least for 12 inch this year, starting in spring. I played for a few indy teams which the only problems were regarding inconsistent attendance.

I then played for 2 organized teams, one was random through facebook and another currently is through an indy team I was on with personal friends sprinkled in. I noticed that I deal with issues that never existed on the indy teams. I was also speaking to someone today that he is in a league where someone just blew up in a group chat and quit although he is quite confused what happened since he wasn't there.

I was curious what issues some of you dealt with and how it resolved unless you are currently going through it.

2025 Genesis smoke power load. They said warranty is good, but they can’t replace it with the same bat. It took forever to get used to it and I love the bat. Should I not be swinging it anymore? Crack is maybe 6 inches long with that chip in the middle. Can I just make sure the other side is facing the ball?

I got a bunch of bats I need to get rid of ....
would it be worth my time selling old stamps?
Miken USSSA new stamp
Mizuno Crush USSSA - The Canadian versions
Mizuno No Doubt - Dual stamp action (This bat actually hit 52's and Classic M's VERY well)
21Demarini Juggy ASA - Right at the pass/Fail line and VERY hot
Demarini Omega ASA/USSSA
Louisville Slugger Z2000 USSSA - I do know this one passes compression
Louisville Slugger Z3000 ASA - hit 52's very well
Easton L6 ASA X2 - Got a new one and one that is super broken in and very hot
Demarini CL22 ASA - Absolute tank
Senior bats - 1 piece and 2 piece and many more
Quite a few have been sold but I got way more to go
I just need them gone......
FYI ...I have sold/traded and bought HUNDREDS (literally maybe thousands) of bats and softballs on FB, softball fans and even the notorious EBAY so you will have no issues at all...

If you are interested let me know

Looking for some girls for my coed slow pitch softball team in LA. We play on Weds night at 7:30 or 9:00 pm. Team is sponsored so league fees are covered. DM if anyone in interested

My Anarchy X-Core 2 ASA broke after 18 months. I think I let too many guys use it.

Anyway, I'm looking to replace it. Are there any good codes out there or do we expect Anarchy to run a Black Friday deal next month? My main season is over so I can wait a while to replace it if I need to.

TIA

Broke my midnight rodeo combat last weekend. Got this as my warranty replacement. Love the looks, but cannot find any shred of evidence this bat exists other than I’m holding it. Can anyone give insight on what the heck this thing is?

Picking up a new USA(ASA) bat, both are same price. Which one would you recommend?

How is it? Won it in a tournament and thinking about selling or trading for a new glove
Thoughts?

Deleted the previous post, forgot to post a picture

Anyone had success switching their throwing arm after a long term injury? What are some tips? Anything to be weary of? How long did it take to be proficient enough for game play? I play rec league for reference.

I was given this Marucci Cypher and it’s no longer under warranty and doesn’t have a lot of swings. Will Marucci repair this? Obviously I’ll pay since it doesn’t have a warranty. If not are there any other options? Thanks.

I’m a woman. I’ve been hitting like 💩. I’ve had a ton of injuries that i didn’t realize the seriousness of (torn quad, torn meniscus, torn cartilage in the ankle, bunion out of the blue). I’m in it and my doctor shot everything full of cortisone (which is working, thankfully).

But I signed up for two very large tournaments before all this went down. My teammates (both drafts, coed) are all seemingly really good players. I’ve told them my batting isn’t as good as theirs and I’ve been the catcher or right field on my other teams.

I still have time to drop, but so far, they haven’t expressed any desire for me to.
But do good players resent the not as good players?

I definitely feel like I've made improvements, but I feel like I'm not getting full arm extension. Does anyone have any drills they recommend?

Let's suppose you had the choice to draft one of these 2 female players. Who are you choosing on your co-ed team, if you only had 1 choice?

Based on these notable rules:

• Min 3 women on the field, no P/C combination required.
• 5 courtesy runners per game. Must be for same gender. Does not have to be the last out.
• Dead home plate with commitment line.
• No throwing out runner directly from outfield to 1B via force (applies to either gender).
• No 5-player infield.
• Home run limit: +2.
• Bunting is not allowed.
• Female hits the smaller ball.
• If male walks in front of a female, male gets 2 bases. Female must bat.
• Max 3 male batters in a row.

Saw a cheap 2022 Easton Sisterhood bat NIW and I was wondering if anyone knew what repainted model it is?

It says it's end loaded 12.75" barrel CXN Max handle...

I figured I could use it for fall either way instead of my FF3 that I'm afraid to break.

Thanks.
