My daughter just bent her bat. I want to get her a new one. But not a another crappy one. Also do not want to break the bank. Any suggestion on an under $100, bat.
She is 14, about 5'6", and 130 lbs.
Thanks

What size/weight? Google for some 2013 with the size and models and u may find something in that price range on ebay, amazon, etc. Good Luck.

From the thread you started yesterday...
The Combat Avaritia is proving to be a solid performer in the under-$100 category. I recently got a 31/21 for $50 (ebay, new).

The more information you can give us about your DD, the better advice we can offer. What length/weight is she currently using? What are her hitting tendencies?

Also...Welcome to DFP! Enjoy the ride!! :)

You should probably be looking at a 33/23 or 33/22 composite. I don't think there are many quality bats out there for under $100. I'd try and find the money to go a bit higher closeoutbats.com had a one day special on a Demarini CF5 yesterday at $139. I almost bought one, even though we don't need one, because the price was so good. It's back to $169 today. You might call them and ask if they would honor the $139 price since you just found out about it.

You should see if she can swing some of her teammates bats - feel really means a lot. There are a lot of good composites out there that you can get discounted if you look for coupons, sales or are just patient and can get one on eBay. Be sure that wherever you get it from that they will give you a valid warranty receipt. We have warrantied two Easton bats and they are great to work with...

She is using a 31 in, 22oz bat, she also has a 31 in, 20 oz. The 22 oz is the one that is bent. She is a strong girl but seems to use only her arms. She needs to use more of her body. She also has an annoying end to her swing that comes above her left shoulder (we call it helicoptering)
