    Miken Velocit-E Slow Pitch Softball Bat: SPVELA

    to follow up on my OP ... I finally got to swing the bat in BP and it was nothing to write home about ... at a minimum, it had a small sweet spot, at least based on the balls that I hit .. not close to the senior bats that I swing in games

    Miken Velocit-E Slow Pitch Softball Bat: SPVELA

    Found this in the bat closet that I share with my son. Neither of us remember how and when it was acquired. I haven't had a chance to swing it. I believe it dates to the early to mid 2000's. Can anyone tell me something about it?

    I had TKR (1 knee) and was back playing in about 4 months. Our league allows a runner from home, so that made it possible. It is now about 5 years later (I'm 77) and I do run from home. Previous to the TKR I played only outfield. Now I'm primarily 1st and catcher with an occasional inning in the...

    Help hitting the ball on the barrel, not the handle

    I had the problem of hitting off the handle, as ongoing, for a while and now it is quite diminished. I discovered a problem with my swing that I believe contributed to the problem. I was starting my swing before my stride was complete and my front foot landed. I suspect that on outside corner...

    Crack or No Crack?

    my gamer just developed a similar crack. I've heard that you can continue to get good hits for a while. My question is ... should the crack be 180 degrees from impact or 90 degrees ... if it somehow makes a difference?

    Knee Replacement

    When I first came back after about 4 months, I switched from being an outfielder to first base. My league allows a runner from home when justified so I took advantage of that during the first season. I was fairly fast before the issues set in and was usually a designated runner. I've obviously...
