I know you can technically reset at any point during the year but there’s a special momentum when it comes to the end of the year. Setting new goals and making changes for a New year becomes a little extra exciting and all so inspiring.

| A question for the knowledgeable people.
The newer ASA only bats are being specially made to hit the 52/275 balls. Does this mean that you would get better distance with an ASA only bat to compare to a USSSA thumbprint bat when hitting the 52/275's? If this is true is the dual stamped bats any better than a thumbprint bat without an ASA stamp on it?
Inquiring people would like to know on this boring day.

| Success at the plate often comes down to making consistent hard contact. To do this, it’s important to swing the right bat for you. That means a bat that’s long enough to cover the strike zone, light enough to swing with ease, heavy enough to generate power, and, of course, permitted in our league.

What had been most sustaining, our games, a visit to your child, or elderly parent, was overnight, declared too dangerous. I learned the discipline of unaccustomed solitude.
