DEPENDS ON THE BAT....EMAIL ME TFANT@UBSE.COM
Well first off, your question is very vague. My question is, is this "w" a logo type molding or is it melted into the end cap? If you have a Miken bat with a W melted into the end cap, then it is a NR bat. (Non-returnable).
Carefully remove the end cap of the bat with a flat head screw driver.Flip the end cap upside down on a flat surface.Pour 1 oz of pourable polyurethane into the end cap and let it dry overnight.Place a small amount of epoxy around the edge of the end cap and press it back into the end of the bat.Let the bat sit overnight (again) with the end cap on the ground to ensure the polyurethane settles completely inside the bat.Note: End loading is illegal in all association softball and should only be used for exhibition or practice. End loading extends the sweet spot and can increase the the exit speed of the ball.
Usually by prying them off. I've found that the higher end bat's are usually more difficult to take off. Try a heat gun to loosen up the glue and to expand the bat from the cap.
Well you could but you have to use a strong type of glue to apply on it and let it dry. But in te long run it could fall of again so when that happens re-apply the strong glue.
Yes because it's wider near the top end and skinnier at the bottom.
Yes, they can be rolled after being end loaded. When you roll a bat you are rolling the sweet spot not the entire length of the barrel.
Buy a new bat, just my advice, i just got my luisville slugger TPX warrior through fedex today from justbats(google it), that site is helpfull.
that number at hte end of the barrel is the subtraction of the length from the weight for example my bat the demarini phoenix is 31 inches and weighs 21 ounces and therefore the number a the end of my barrel is -10.
This is a tough question to answer. A softball bat is a very personal thing. It depends on how old you are, how tall you are, and how strong you are. Let me start by stating that the right softball bat is one you can swing! In fastpitch softball it is all about bat speed. The heaviest bat you can swing at FULL speed is the right bat. There are two measurements for a bat. 1) Length, 2)Weight. Weight can be anywhere from 18oz to 24oz. Length may be from 24" to 34". A 5-7 year old may use a 24" bat. While an 18 year old may use an 34" bat. There is one more measurement that you will see. The Weight-Length value. For example, a 20" bat that weights 30oz is a -10. Bats that are -10, -11, and -12 are very popular.
It depends on the type and quality of bat, some are made of aluminum, others composite. The higher end bats are usually a type of composite alloy mix.
