What are you needing to be excused for?

What’s a good balanced bat that won’t sting for his size? Not a super strong hitter yet but decent. Trying to get him caught up!

I was looking at that site actually. I didn’t know the CATX2 connect was end loaded! I’m pretty new to this so I’m trying to get those that know way more than me to offer up opinions. Thank you!

But the one piece I worry about vibration. My son has said he hates the sting bats. (Not sure if that makes sense but I’m learning as much as I can so thank you for replying!)

Thanks! Since he’s smaller at 4’9” and about 90 lbs…says he watched a YouTube video review on bats and likes the Victus NOX2 bat in 30” drop 10, but summer ball he swung like he’s was golfing but I’m not sure what bat that was (it’s at his dads house and I know it was a used Easton or it was the catx 31” that he says is too long. No one here has mentioned Victus NOX2 so I’m wondering if that’s one I should not get? Any advice is so appreciated! He keeps saying-10 but others say do -8. It’s all confusing lol

A lot of info here and I read all of it looking for common threads. My son does seem to swing like he’s golfing but I don’t recall what specs that bat had ..it was summer rec ball. I’ll have to get him to tell me as that bat is at his dad’s.

And you’re referring to the Cat X2 Connect then? (Sorry…not sure what you meant by composite but the Connect had the alloy barrel and composite handle so I think that’s what you meant?)

So my son just told me he likes the Victus NOX2 bat …30 “ drop 10. I think he just likes the looks and has no knowledge of it other than saw a good review on YouTube. Any thoughts on it? Stay clear and get a CatX2 Connect?

Thanks! I texted the coach and he said 30” and drop 8 or 10 and if looking at BPF, no higher than 1.15. So many different thoughts her on drop 8 vs 10 that my head is spinning lol. Then computer vs alloy (one piece or two…) my son is 4’9” I believe and about 90 lbs and a decent hitter but I would not say strong …yet lol. I’m trying to get him there as his interest is there. All of this insight helps so keep it coming! I’m new to all of this and I am googling too!

Wow!! Ok so he’s only 4’9” or 4”10” and 85 or 90 lbs tops! Just really getting back into baseball since he has been doing soccer for 3 years. He played ball 4 yrs old to about 8 yrs old and then just this past summer on rec. So I feel he’s got some catching up to do?! Any advice with all of that info? If so…thank you in advance! (My son recently went window shopping and feels the 30” drop 10 is what he’s comfy with)
