I was able to speak to 2 coaches tonight, 1 is the coach at a strong D II school and the oterh used to be the head coach at a D I that has made several trips to the CWS. I was surprised to hear from both of them that neither of them EVER opened a letter from a scouting service. I don't know much about these types of services, but one of them said they knew of a kid that had spent 2000 dollars for assistance from one of these services, but from where I stand it looks like not only is it a waste of money, but it may have even hurt their chances. Has anyone else had similar (or different) experiences???
