hahahaha, that's a good one spedrunr. I know the typical softball guy where they have their 10 bat list that goes in their bag along with their walmart glove :lol: I have some pretty good sticks in the bat bag, but almost all of them I got hooked up on. A guy I play for has a lot of $$$ and is constantly buying tons of bats , he's really cool and will often times give me some of his ones that he hardly uses.

Bat list is:
Synergy 1 ( black/yellow)
Synergy 2
Synergy Flex (the first model)
Synergy Extended ( R.I.P , was dangerously hot lol )

oh and a Rip It bat that the guy I play with just gave to me

I will only swing eastons till my old model ones run out or get banned though, the new ones are HORRIBLE

funny thing is that i'm clueless when i see those lists :roll:

i usually just grab the best looking one or if it looks cool 8)

i'll have to look at the ones that the manager brings (probably a bunch of cheapies) :shock:

I dont know about weight, some of us love our PRO CFC's for OF because of their lack of mass, but some still seem to prefer PRO-TB's.

I want a glove to feel like an extension of my hand (which feels weightless) while others want to feel a glove, its like bat models.

Nomar likes a tiny bat that he can whip around while Ryan Howard wants a bat that he can feel a large heavy barrel on.

I also play third base when I play infield and I pitch in modified fast pitch. Like I said I use a Pro Pref for the infield. Light enough for me.

I guess its what your comfortable with and what you get use to.

By the way only one bat in my bag. 28oz Easton Synergy Extended.

I would also love to see some study on reaction times with gloves that vary a couple of ounces.

I think it would be negligable.
