Re: Re: Senior League bat?

> > My son is 13, 4'10", 85 pounds, on a 13 Prep Babe Ruth team. In Little League he used a DeMarini 30-20 and an Easton Connexion 30-19.5, and liked both. He is not a long ball hitter, but fast, with the highest on base average. I was going to purchase a 31-22 Easton Stealth BST11, but I am concerned it might be too much - should I go with the 30-21? I was also looking at the Vexxum Senior League 30 or 31, but prefer the BST11 because of the larger barrel (2 3/4 vs 2 5/8) and the greater drop (-9 vs -8.5). Opinions please as to BST11 vs Vexxum and best length/weight? (He did fine holding a 31-22 bat out palm down for 45 seconds.) I will also get a 30-25 wooden bat for practice. Thank you.

If i were in your sistuation i would get the stealth because he needs the bat speed so he can use it if he doesn/'t make the team. I personally have used the adult stealth and i hink it is a good bat.
