The Youth Synergy I talked about in my last post came in last Tuesday. My daughter got to practice with it all week and used it in our first game this weekend. I have to say, I like what I see so far. The bat isn’t very heavy which concerned me at first, but the ball still pops off the bat well. In fact, my daughter hit her first homerun ever with it this weekend. Granted if there was a better left fielder in the outfield, she would have probably been held to a double, but the fact remains that she hit it hard enough so that it kept rolling far enough to allow her to get all the way around the bases before the ball ever got back to the pitcher.
Needless to say, my daughter likes the bat and so do I. I’m glad I picked it up. Plus I like the colors. I know, men always say you shouldn’t judge a bat by how “pretty” it looks, but I do like the look of the Synergy so that’s a bonus.
