The Youth Synergy Is In

The Youth Synergy I talked about in my last post came in last Tuesday. My daughter got to practice with it all week and used it in our first game this weekend. I have to say, I like what I see so far. The bat isn't very heavy which concerned me at first, but the ball still pops off the bat well. In fact, my daughter hit her first homerun ever with it this weekend. Granted if there was a better left fielder in the outfield, she would have probably been held to a double, but the fact remains that she hit it hard enough so that it kept rolling far enough to allow her to get all the way around the bases before the ball ever got back to the pitcher.

Needless to say, my daughter likes the bat and so do I. I'm glad I picked it up. Plus I like the colors. I know, men always say you shouldn't judge a bat by how "pretty" it looks, but I do like the look of the Synergy so that's a bonus. :)

KC - thanks once again...see guys, I'm not the only one that like "pretty" bats. In fact, I heard a story this weekend of a player who's father was going to buy her a Catalyst and she said "No" because it was the wrong color! Ack...okay, for this one I have to disagree with, dad was going to buy a CATALYST! Go for it! Instead she got an inexpensive bat from the local sporting goods store and told her dad that he was the one that told her it's not the bat that makes the hitter. lol

I took a look at the Youth Synergy it is a "pretty" bat see guys there is nothing wrong with a pretty bat.. My daughter play 10U also, though she just turned 11 years, she got her bat about a year and a half ago So it is starting to look like a bat that has hit quite a few pitches and has been thrown on the ground a few times, but OH my goodness was it a pretty bat when we got it for her. It is a Mizuno Jennie Finch Signature Model I LOVE this bat, almost makes me wish I played softball just so I could swing with this bat.. MY husband teases me about it, cuz like most men he doesn't get the "pretty" bat thing. I just took a look at the Catalyst bat.. it's a nice looking bat also.. but WOW she turned down a $250 bat?!?!?!?!?! LOL just goes to show girls like there "pretty" bats :)
