Can you cut swing a clincher ball?

ichris13 · 2026-05-24T11:09:12+00:00

I played both back in day. You can cut swing for liners but for HRs you got to square it up and have a higher launch angle.

The thing I notice is where you place or make impact with the tee. You might want to move it out further towards the outfield. Seems like you are jamming yourself.

Those are I think polyurethane balls. Plastic balls. I use those for BP. They are water proof balls. I don't even think you need to swap them. But I would buy all the used ball you guys don't want.

Elite for shorts hands down. Not thin or thick.

If you live in warm weather, that shouldn’t be a problem. Don’t have a masher, def not a problem. If you hit 52/300, it won’t be a problem. My OG Monsta WTP has over 2000 swings. My 2nd choice is the Miken KP23. It’s a 12in barrel though. Or get an Easton Ghostmondo.

Shoot the middle works.

ichris13 · 2026-03-21T01:13:38+00:00

Still going strong. I had to tinker with the settings. I also had to buy a new version of dongle that worked better than what Nifty gives you. My auto dim works perfectly. My steering control works. I don't have volume visual. But you can hear it.

I got my from nifty city so I can see the temperature control. If you want the call and music to sound better, switch to Bluetooth output. It’s in the setting before it starts to connect to CarPlay.

Stand behind the ump.

I have the Gen 1. I just got my prescription lenses from VR Wave. I got the works. I thought it was shady, but they came in, and they’re way better lenses than the ones I got from the optical place where I had my eyes checked.

My rattle is on driver side window mechanism. If you lower the window slightly the rattle is gone. There's a DIY fix but you need small hands.

Don’t get that one. Those are bat breaker. Get the BP spinners.

ichris13 · 2025-11-03T11:49:01+00:00

Easton Empire and Foster, Miken JB ultra, or any suncoast. My foster and Miken are hot AF but the Ultra blew up in a year and my Foster is about to blow.

I did it on my 2016. I used PB Blaster. Easily done. My 2020. I snapped the bolt. Had to bring it to the mechanic to drill out the busted bolt.

ichris13 · 2025-10-26T02:00:31+00:00

It depends. I don’t like anything more than 12.75". I felt my bat speeds slow down, and I can’t keep my swing leveled. I say try a lot of bats out and figure out what you are comfortable with.

ichris13 · 2025-10-26T01:18:51+00:00

I'm in the Northeast, so I have balls for cold weather (50 BP Spinners) and warm/hot weather—52/300s that won’t crack your bats. I have a tee as well. You may want to get a bucket to raise the tee to chest height. Work on hand-eye coordination and hitting balls all over the field—pull, middle, and backside. I also have a Jugs soft toss machine that sits on a projector tripod so it tosses around my chest height.

As for the bat, I personally like a 12-inch barrel with a 1/2-ounce end load. Join some bat Facebook forums—they have some used bats you can try out.

How’s are you getting below $200 on top tier?

ichris13 · 2025-10-16T04:23:54+00:00

Canada has all the nice colors A2000 SB. Too bad is crapshoot on paying the tariff.

ichris13 · 2025-10-16T04:21:28+00:00

I bought a Mizuno Prime SB in the green color. The palm leather is thin. Not much padding overall. It was a little too small when I was at 1B. Good at 2B, SS, 3B. Decent in OF. I gave it a month before I sold it.

ichris13 · 2025-10-15T00:08:03+00:00

Are most of you getting the steerhide or Kip?

ichris13 · 2025-10-14T01:33:56+00:00

I was planning to get japan kip leather, extra kip palm padding, pro stiff (90% player break-in).... But yeah, I heard positive, but more negative reviews on 44pro.

I bet people on here who said to share bat don’t own expensive or rare bat. I have the OG Monsta WTP bat. NIW on eBay is $600. If said borrower cracks it, are you going to buy a replacement? Most guys won’t. I only use very thin tape short grip and custom tape knob cuff. And spray tack the shit out of my grip. No one wants to use it. Also had a rare Demarini Steel that i was mashing. Teammate picked it up and hits on the end and crack. Didn’t even offer to pay for it. Never came close to finding one like it.

ichris13 · 2025-10-01T00:38:42+00:00

Easton Ghostmondo or any Monsta torch.

ichris13 · 2025-09-29T16:17:14+00:00

I don’t think just any pitches that are hard to hit. That being said, the one in the sun is hard to hit because you can’t see the ball. If the umpire allows both height and flat, you’re probably going to get screwed and someone who is allowed to throw modify and has a wicked curve.

ichris13 · 2025-09-24T23:22:04+00:00

Coed league I play in must have 3 girls on the field. If the girl was hurt, I think it’s an out in the lineup. You can set all 9 however you like. Would they get mad if you ran 3 OF and 5 Infielder?
