bat monger
Combat Advisory staff
Hopefully I can get all the important info in here. Let me know if I miss something.
Did I miss anything?
The question that I have is here:
What bat of yours instills most fear
I just play rec but online brag,
That I drop bombs, so help my swag.
I need one like the avarice
That thing sure did hit rods of...
I guess now what I really mean,
Is which one hits those lazer beams.
Or tasers or creatures like CD
You know softball is all about me
But seriously, I need some info Mr. Coop,
So I can sit back and work on my booowooop!
275 bats are geared for the low compression balls (52/275 and 52/300)
The 275 bats are all association bats. The new ASA standard will allow for a bat with a higher performance than the USSSA standard depending on weight. The 275 models are geared for balls that get soft in the heat, AKA ****ty balls as well as low compression/ HIgh core balls.
The new 275 bats in the Derby Boys and Wanted were specifically made for High Cor Low Compression Balls. They will be All Association Bats good for ASA, USSSA, NSA, and ISA.
The new ASA standard will allow for a bat that exceeds the BPF1.20 when you put some weight in her. There will be a huge difference beween old stamp and NEW stamp ASA.
The ASA only will have a higher performance than the 275. ASA only will only pass the New ASA test and Senior softball test. It fails all others. The 275 passes all associations.
Greg, I will answer your earlier question. We are not replacing old stamp bats with new stamp bats as they still can be used in most league play across the country in USSSA. I talked with almost all the Slowpitch directors at the USSSA convention and it looks liket most will be allowing old stamp bats in league play. This standard change has been announced over two years ago and we have been building to the new standards from when we were given the go ahead in September of 2011
the new ASA standard will go over 1.20 before it breaks ... i would not think it gets completly to 1.21 --- 1.21 is above a senior bat. the test for senior is really 1.204999999999. -- a 1.205 in testing will not get approved.
we have not really gotten shorter barrels we are just honest in what we call them. We look at many competitors bats ad what they call 13 " we call 12" barrel -- we have talked about starting to measure ours like theres/
The WANTED models have a super stiff handle--- way stiffer than the Spiked had this year
We will also be coming out with a two new Senior bats --- The Dirty-- available only at ****** ultimate sports and The "ZOOMER" Jeff Wallace signature series Senior bat. Yes great news to all you pitchers Zoom will be playing some senior ball this summer
The actual Lab test is not a good standard for durability as they roll them after every round. The bat must break before Exceeding BPF1.20. If it goes over BPF.1.20 before breaking the bat construction does not get certified. In field testing we have seen numbers like this.. Combatants --- 200-500 swings -- Avarice 100 to 300 swings --- Derby 275 1,200 to 2,000 swings. WANTED 1,400 TO 2,000 SWINGS ... Now thats the Derby monkeys swinging ... so for me the Wanted will probably last till I retire. COOP
Bobby - new roller bags and new back packs just came in -- Derby Life bag line.
All taem buy in packages that include Uniforms will need to be in by January 15th.
ASA only stamped bats are good with any ball.... the will hit your rolled up socks.
classic M will work great with WANTED OR wanted 275 --- or Derby 275
Hacker did not meet the min. required weight ... we are looking into a Hacker T-ball bat know that he is going to be a proud Poppa
For all you new Derby Life Advisory Members. You will be updated as soon as we have our Staff filled by probably a couple different people. You will be assigned a Derby Life Contact from one of Factory Staff Members and also to the Sales Rep in your Territory. They may ask for your assistance in Demo Nights and Testing of Products.
Jason - your suppose to play outfield --- SALAD only at the steakhouse.
ASA only bats are sheduled to launch before Christmas.
completly different feel than anything in the past is my opinion. The wanted has a Stiffer handle than our one piece. You will have to hit to compare.
The new bats will only go to 28 oz. MOI is high on them though. I wish 30 was available too.
The wanted 275 and WANTED 28 has a higher MOI than are old 30fl
Did I miss anything?
