How will the Nanotek compare?

Feel free to tell me to piss off....but I am seriously curious. My younger daughter is on Team Anderson 97 and they have all switched to the techzilla or RT and having great results.

My older daughter is on last years 12U ASA championship team and I don't think a single girl swings an Anderson bat. hmmmmm maybe they are a good test market.

Sure be nice to test drive one of those new Nano's.

Took the plunge on a RT. DD is a 12u and used a team mates over the eweekend..6games, 4 for 10, 2k's(1st day using a 32"....switched to 31" day 2) I will admit she looked very slugish with the 32...swinging late just looked taxing! Asked another dad if she could use a 31 in his dd bag ..problem solved! 0 k's day 2, hitting hard to the left side, much more enjoyable to watch!! Made the call today to our supplier...picking it up tomorrow....couple of months till next tourny....looks like T time!

I had a little problem with the prototypes so I have to postpone this a little while. no use field testing a bat I'm not happy with yet. It's very close though. I'll get back to every body that I'm going to use with a questionnaire. I've delegated this to someone who is wildly busy right now but she is the right person for the job.

I had a little trouble with the prototypes. I didn't like the balance or barrel length. I want an actual -10 drop weight as well as a -10 swing weight. It is the first time we have ever tried to match them. We made the adjustment and got a much better result in performance testing too. The local college hit them in fall ball and saw some good results. It is out for certification research scan to see if it is within the rules and then it is ready for extended field test. there will be specific sizes for the test. I'll will let everyone know when. you can't rush this stuff or you end up with way to many unexpected consequences.

I understand you cant rush this stuff.. But HURRY UP!!!! :-P~~ Thanks for the update tumblebug. Im sure youd like to get it out soon too. It's kinda too bad you'll miss the Christmas season. But sales for spring should be good if you can get them out before then and people start talking.

Question: Having a true -10 and a swing -10, how are you going to mark and market both bats? Call the swing-10 a -9 or?? Curious more than anything.
thanks
