    You should test all composite bats at those price differences if you haven’t already. (even if it’s $50 gaps or less options, I’m unsure if the market). it’s really clear there’s no reason to buy an alloy bat for U-Trip. So test the comps! That’d be sweet

    Marucci Code @ $149
    Victus Vibe/Pencil @ $199
    Louisville Atlas @ $249
    Marucci Cat X2 @ $299
    With a used bat like the Demarini @ $60 thrown in to see how much you "lose" going used.
    Side idea, a vid with used 2-piece vs new 1-piece to see what the actual performance dropoff is. JustBats has a variety of used in the same price range as new 1-piece and my 11u son's still always had good pop on someone else's "last season's" bat.

    A while back I bought a 2 piece catx but I didn’t know what it was and sold it for $30. I think it was a softball bat. The guy who bought it asked if it still had pop? I had no idea what he was talking about. It was before I started watching this channel.

    I just attended the Cooperstown Dream Park's last tournament for the summer and the bats are stupid and the fields are stupid. The amount of inflated home runs and scores were insane. The fields say they are 200....I measured several...they are in fact 186. This bs about the wall height is stupid. They told us "Cooperstown Dreams Park does not want high scores! We do not want blow outs! We want baseball!" which is the total opposite of what anyone gets when playing there. High scoring games all the time, too many kids getting drilled by way too hot line drives or ground balls and then stupid swings where they flick the bat while falling over and it goes out by a solid 30+ feet. The composite bats are stupid. Give majority of those kids a real bat and they will have a hard time fighting through the zone.
