No he doesn’t use it to hit mud off his cleats.  His exit velo is 90+ he uses it for practice/lessons/games.  No one else uses it. No cracking, no rattles.  It’s the blue meta.  I think it’s just in his head, but didn’t know if anyone else has any experience.



oh it’s when I’m throwing to him.  I told him it’s probably because I’m throwing 40mph and not 80

Your last statement makes me believe his actual problem is finding the sweet spot on slow pitching. If his EV numbers haven't changed with the same bat, then it would be safe to say he is hitting the baseball off the end of the bat.

On a side note, I believe that the feel of the bat is a disadvantage when hitting with composites. Lack of feedback can be very deceiving at times. Especially, when you feel like you barreled one only to watch it die in the OF.
