It is a composite bat sized for her strength and swing only good for about 300 hits after it is broke in. You can get it now for $250 as it is a 2013 and the 2014 just came out. Pretty typical of quality bats nowadays.

Yes I also forgot her pitching lessons at $80 per hour once a week. We play just about every weekend all over Georgia and Tennesee but have most of our tournaments within a 2 hour drive of home. Not to many overnights. We will be in Panama City Beach come mid July for the USFA World Series which will last all week. That will also be our summer vacation. She loves it and so do her Mother and I.
