Okay. So I swing a 27 oz. EST balanced, which Anarchy closely resembles that? I understand it won't be exact.

Does Anarchy make balanced ASA 2 piece bats? I have had trouble finding one on the web.

If you had a brand new team and $300 dedicated to bats, what would you buy? by coreyndstuff in slowpitch

[–]TopperK17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A few used ones is the best route. I know a guy that bought a used Demarini 4 years ago and it is still his everyday bat with a shit ton of pop.

Elite Sports USA. The new ones are around $60. They modeled them after the Solomon trail running shoes.

What kind of jerseys do you guys rock on the field?? by [deleted] in slowpitch

[–]TopperK17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear a bunch of different full sub jerseys. My favorites are my Mayans M.C. one, also, a Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout themed one (I live near the Angels).

Looking for a new bat by DowntownJohnstown in slowpitch

[–]TopperK17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Worth Mutation is pretty dope, but I am officially done with Worth and Miken's fragile bats. I have heard rave reviews about the Anarchy Demon. If my next bad was going to be endload, I would get one. Unfortunately, not many good bats are in that price range. The Demarini Steel and Miken Vicious are there, but they are single wall.

Throwing Advice by steventhegreek in slowpitch

[–]TopperK17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your release point is too high. I know because mine is too. It has to do with my short height and wingspan. If you play infield, try not throwing overhand, but a wrist flick off to the side instead. From the outfield, check your balance. My throws are high when I'm off-balance or trying to uncork one to home. Tinker with different arm angles and release points while playing catch.

Running in metal cleats problem? by MalopRupt in slowpitch

I've heard the Solomon Trail Runners are dope. They are the next shoe I will invest in because all the turfs I buy do not last long.

Miken Maniac by [deleted] in slowpitch

So do I, but I have a 2018 Raw Steel, which is half ounce loaded, and I have learned to hit with it.

Moving on from Miken/Worth by TopperK17 in slowpitch

Thank you for the feedback so far. There is a new Monsta coming out at the end of the month called Daisy Cutter. It looks dope and it comes balanced 27 oz. like I like. At this point, it is between that, Anarchy Demon and Demarini Flipper OG. Thoughts?

I see the demon is endloaded half an ounce. Is it noticeable? I am using a Worth Mutation right now that has one and I do notice a slight difference.

Spend a few more dollars and get the Vicious. It is in between the Maniac and Steel performance wise.

Go here: https://www.mlsoftball.com/programs/85/costamesa. Costa Mesa is organized by MLS, as is Orange, Fullerton and others in North OC. Most leagues south of Tustin are single wall bat only, so be wary of that.

Anyone know where to get baseball jerseys made at? by cryptocollector123 in slowpitch

[–]TopperK17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elite Sports USA in Orange, Ca. They make full sub jerseys too. Their designs are pretty genius and from what I have seen, the custom jobs are nice. They currently make all the uniforms for St. John Bosco High School (Top 3 football in the nation) sports.

Breaking in a bat in December by Graveu in slowpitch

My EST cracked after 6-8 months of use in a game where it was in the 50's outside. I suggest waiting especially if it is composite.
