The thing to remember also with the RT, there is a breakin period with it, when dd first got hers hits just seemed dead, not the pop they described. But afterwards there was a definate difference. She tried the Balanced bats last year, it was a disaster, probably 50/50 confidence as well as technique. This year 1000% better hitter, which is also better technique, more confident and has faith in the bat.
Was at a Racers clinic, Cystal Bustos also said to keep her in a heavier bat because of her size.
Like others have said it is the dd who has to be confident in what she is using no matter whos name is on the bat. And technique is everything.
