what's a good bat?
i live in California in a junior 80's league and last year i used my friends bat and hit really good with it it was this one: a demarini vexxum (-13.5) Long barrel Youth Baseball Bat - 2004 Model
i think it has like something in it that's not in a regular bat but anyway what is a good bat like that because i had a stealth and i just got the regular one and it didn't work very well but i ripped with my friends bat...
btw dont be fooled by my pic i play baseball with guys
composite is what i want, whats a good composite bat similar to this one?
if you felt comfortable with the demarini you should go out and look at some of the bats made by demarini. they are a top brand in baseball and have been for many years. you can swing them in some stores if you are careful and you can also get a good feel for it. demarini makes very unique bats as do most manufacturers so whatever you feel comfortable with is what you should use. I'd suggest either the vexxum or the diablo as these are the top two demarini bats out and are very similar ad will let you smack the crap outta the ball. I personally like TPX but again its all preference. I am going to be playing college ball at NC State next year so I know a few things about baseball and bats and stuff haha its basically my job but I love it - been playing for my entire life. Hope that helped and good luck in the future!

Youth baseball will never be the same after the release of 2011 Anderson K Techzilla XP. With the same great design as the 2010 TechZilla this year’s model comes with some performance upgrades and an edgy new look that will have everyone wanting one. Anderson has always been an industry leader in innovation and technology and the new KX Series takes that trend to the next level. The new KXTM Series Alloy is one of a kind and required a redesign of the bat shape to optimize Moment of Inertia (MOI). Optimizing the MOI makes it possible to swing the bat faster with less effort. The alloy has a greater yield value and added strength that allows a more responsive and larger Effective Hitting Area (EHA). The Ultra Thin Whip Handle and the SG-1 Sport Grip combine for added comfort with every swing. The Ergonomic Weldless Knob and Taper Flex Vibration System help to reduce sting after contact. The energy transfer efficiency equals better performance and provides the edge every player needs to compete effectively at the highest levels. Faster bat speed plus heavier overall weight equals surefire higher performance, every time. The proven Power Arch Multi-Wall Construction, enhanced manufacturing accuracy, and easily identifiable new graphics deliver advanced performance to provide Game Improvement Technology through superior design. The TechZilla XP is back and better than ever; don’t be the only player without one. To be the best you’ve got to swing the best: Anderson K Techzilla XP. This bat is backed by Anderson’s 30 day exclusive “Proof is at the Plate” program.

When selecting youth baseball bats it is important to consider the bat’s length, weight, barrel width, and league requirements. While wood bats are available, most people select aluminum or cutting-edge alloy bats for youth baseball. A general rule is to select the lightest bat for its length in order to maximize swing power. Lighter bats are more expensive, while heavier bats are usually thicker and made from a cheaper-grade aluminum. Longer youth baseball bats arm the player with more plate coverage, but they also weigh more. Shorter bats are faster but may force the batter to crowd the plate in order to reach the outside edge of the strike zone.
Also consider the size of the barrel. A larger barrel wields more power and has a bigger sweet spot, yet the larger barrel requires more mass, and so it is heavier. Often selecting a bat is an imperfect science because you can’t really hit a ball in a store, or even really swing the bat for that matter. You might even try going out to a local baseball practice or batting cage. Then you can try many different bats, actually making contact with the ball, and get a much more accurate picture of what bat works for your son or daughter.
Little League baseball bats should not be more than 33 inches long or more than 2 1/4 inches in diameter at the barrel. Little League baseball bats should be taped around the handle and up 10 inches. Bats are measured in inches for length and ounces for weight. Minus numbers are used to show a bat’s measurements. For example, if a bat is 33 inches long and has a (-10) rating, that means the bat weighs 23 ounces. So the higher the negative number than the lighter the bat is for its length.
