gtg or is it about to blow

[fastfinn]

Easton srv5 with about 1200 hits. It's spitting absolute fire right now. We hit the 44/375's. It's been put away for the year since it's getting cold here. I guess my question is how much longer it may last. Or is it just the paint. Either way I won't let anyone else swing it anymore. Any input would be helpful. Thanks

Go for broke on every swing!

 

[ddoubler]

I find it's g2g when about to blow

Swing away. It's finna break anyway.

 

[lawdizzle]

Flip it to the other side...you still have some swings in it!

Yep. Send it out in a blaze of glory.

This is when I cover that **** up with a piece of clear packing tape and keep swinging.

 

[TRaj2327]

I don't know that that will help much on these diagonal cracks. On the seams that develop on DeMarinis it absolutely helps keep the crack from lifting. My '13 CL22 has had a seam in it since last winter indoor BP and I kept it together all season after easily 300-400 swings between games and BP and there has been no change. I replaced the tape a week ago and its still GTG.

 

[ball go far]

she is on last legs...this is when you get accused of swinging glass cause that thing prob sounds like the bommb

 

[Laoch]

Just paint...

 

[killer mike]

Oh man that thing must be unreal, your GTG.....till she blows up, then it's ngtg....

With winter coming up you'll have time to get a backup going. Enjoy your last swings when you need them.

Does it matter if it's about to blow? You swing it until an ump tells you that you can't swing it.

 

[MPT23]

Enjoy it while it lasts.

Saw tooth cracks are the worst my buddy has one and monitor s the swings he puts on it and it has lasted him 2 months and still going just baby it and use it when needed until you get ur next bat broken in.

I have a team mate that his Salvo got cracks like that over a year ago has saw easily 1k more swings and is still going strong while mine on the other hand I got 50 more cuts once it started cracking .

It'll be fine till Spring...





if you're putting it away for the winter.

 

[second2noone]

[louconn]

Good to go, or ready to blow?

Looks good. Grab one end and swing. When that breaks, swing the other.

Our last games of the year are tomorrow night, it's going to be below 40. I'm tempted to swing it and go out with a bang. I've never broke a bat before, so going out with a bat shattering bomb would be a great way to end the year. As long as the piece that flys of doesn't hit someone.

My recoil is going to look like this after this season of winter ball.

It won't just randomly have an explosive break. It will take at least 5-10 to totally separate once a real crack shows up. If you only have one game and 3-4 swings I would swing away. I've seen worse last longer.

About to blow, but guaranteed bombs until she does. Fire away!

I had a salvo that did that lasted 3 months. Have fun you will get a couple omg moments and a couple fielders stepping out of the way. Balls come out hot
