I gave this bat to a local little league team to try out and I was moved by the feedback received. Only one or two of the players on the team had a high-quality bat so it was instantly well received by the team. The players then each took turns with the Mattingly Ripped Bat during batting practice and loved it for the fact that they were hitting the ball so well. I stayed to help the kids with their grip, which was fascinating to see how many held the bat incorrectly. After I showed them how to hold the bat and challenged each of them to hold their own bat in that manner they appreciated what a V-Grip can do for a swing. If you watch Don Mattingly in the videos he uses to describe the bats, he is seen holding a bat in his hands and flexing his wrists to get a feel for the bat in his hands. When I had the kids do this they each understood the right amount of pressure to hold the bat with (not a death grip). They all gave a small cheeer when I told them that I would give them the bat so their team could use it! It was great day!
Just like in my session with the local high school team, the bat was sending balls flying off of it because of the great trampoline effect it has constructed into it. The players were trying to figure out if the grip or the actual bat was causing the ball to fly off the bat the way that it was. I left the team that day with a nice smile on my face and can't wait to see these kids play a few more times this season.
Good Luck, Coach Chuck
