My soon to be nine-year-old who weighs 50 pounds at best currently uses a Easton Mako 26 inch -11, maybe I paid $60 new. Part of the issue is her swing at times but she is getting no power whatsoever even when her swing is sound. Additionally every time she makes contact she shakes her hands as if she is experiencing a lot of pain. I'm presuming she should probably jump up to a 28 inch bat, this one was purchased over a year ago.
I am pretty much resigned to the fact that she will need a new bat every single season as she grows.
I am certainly happy to purchase something used, can anyone give me advice as to a brand that their DD has had success with as well as specifications? I would like not to have to break the bank on a bat that she won't be using at this time next year. I am happy to use eBay as I use eBay all the time, but I am open to other resources.
Thanks in advance,
Bat Dad
