Cold weather bats

Dd started using the RocketTech this summer. Knowing the great weather here in the spring, chances are she won't be using it much for school ball. Any recommendations on bats that can be used below 50-60 degrees? Is there anything that has the same feel and performance of the RT? Mizuno says on their website that their TechFire bats have no temperature restrictions. Any input on those. Thanks!

I heard that the Miken bats are made for colder weather.I don't know if they will perform like the RT. I saw a lot of homeruns hit with that bat this summer.

Strikeout is right. This is from the Demarini web site:

Q: How does cold weather affect Doublewall bats?

A: Cold weather affects the ball, not the bat. A ball's core becomes harder in cold weather, causing the ball to dent the bat. Some players think that keeping a bat warm before hitting will prevent denting, but what they actually want to do is keep the ball above 60 degrees Farenheit.
