Spiraling/Webbing Help

[MikeDwins]

I don't have much experience with spiraling/webbing. Just wondering if you guys could give me an educated guess on how much life this bat has left? Is it time to start looking for another bat? This spiraling goes all the way around the entire barrel. Thanks in advance.

Shoo wee. I bet that baby is fire. If you're hitting hard balls I'd say you'll be lucky to get 100-150 more out of it. If hitting 52's I bet it'll last a while.

It's pretty stupid right now... Luckily, we do hit 52's in our league.

Yes, as it's ump discretion to toss out, I'd start looking for another.

I'd say swing away then.

Unfortunately this is the kicker of a spiraled bat. It's not technically cracked, but umpires will treat it as if it is. This is why I try to be cautious breaking in my ASA only stuff.

So far.....At least it's been my experience, that umpires generally let it go until they start to see patches of outer composite sticking up....But, that's not all that far off with this bat.

LOL you should see my L6.0 Easton, spirals, webbing, and surface cracks like a mother lol. luckily the umps in the ASA league night parks really don't care about the bats unless they aren't ASA approved. I'm hoping it will last me but I'll take some pics of it tonight

Same here, our league umps dont really care... as long as the other team doesn't complain and it's an ASA bat...
