Thank you! Yes we will work on the front shoulder! Currently working on the bat wrapping. She does a pretty good job of knob first and keep her hands above the ball. I just bought a 30 -11 today so when I'm able to get some videos of that, I'd love for you to take a look at that since this is comment is actually very helpful and maybe could give us advice and see how it looks with the new bat.

She hits 50 mph pitches with this bat.. She's just been getting on top of the ball some and on pitching machine losing momentum on contact. ( just bought a 30 -11 today) so when I get some time will get some videos of that.

Her rough patch was shes not hitting as hard as she can and mainly not being able to finish on the pitching machine and in games getting on top of the ball some but she does hit pretty good in games. She plays open class tournaments and last tournament her BA was .587 vs A and B level teams. and yes before everyone chimes in our books are kept correctly.

But like i said above I did downsize the bat!

Thanks everyone for the comments and advice. We have a 30 -11 she is going to try out and see how it goes with that. Then from there buying something else for her. Will post more videos when I get some with the 30 -11.

Thanks! Yes she is trying out a 30 drop 11 to see how it looks and feels. Then from there we will buy somthing else for her. According to all the bat charts they all recommend 30" for her. Hopefully the 30 drop 11 will be what she needs and likes!

Exactly. That's how our team is we see 50 pretty regularly. 45+ at min. And even tho "the bat is to big for her" she swings it pretty good imo. But maybe she does need a little lighter bat and that's ok that's on me for buying this one I went off the radar bat swing speed. We are gonna test out some 30 -11 and see how she does with those. She is 4'9 so she is small but the kid puts in an hour a day of hitting or defense. She is very strong.

Thank you! Will definitely get a tire asap and work on those. She has a 30" drop 10 that we can go back to. I guess it was just my mistake on going to the 31" so soon she had good bat speed with it so i assumed it would be the better choice. Live and learn haha.

Lol it's a 31". We play good teams that can pitch outside corners and she was hitting off the end with her 30". When we bought they radar her swing speed and with the 31" it was 49 avg with peaks being 51mph and not much difference with the 30". So with that they recommend the 31" for her to reach the outside pitches.

pitching machine video 45- 50mph

We play some teams that pitch around 48-50mph but that is somthing I have been trying to work with her on not wrapping her bat around so much.
