Hi,

I am new to the forum so let me tell you a little about my self. Im a 15 yo sophmore from NY. I Pitch and play Right field. Last year i played Freshman and was given MVP title with a round a .500 average. The year we were thinking of movin up to varsity but the juniors and seniors in our school are awsome so its gonna be a JV year.

My question is,

Which does everyone here prefer: the Stealth Regular/Stiff Flex bat? And does anyone have any suggestions on other bats if they don't like these?

Thanks,
plp556

would u say the stiff is better then most other bats?

plp- for what it's worth, my son (college freshman) was always a Louisville fan and used the Omaha and most recently the Armor and still likes both, but has just begun using the Easton (stiff) Stealth and loves it.

An Easton rep was just at his school with the new models that will come out for the College WS and my son tells me the new Stealth version is unbelievable. Should be out in May.

If you are more the power hitter "type" the stiff flex Stealth or the Louisville Armor should work for you nicely. If you're more a linedrive "gap" type hitter, the Louisville Omaha or the regular flex (red) Stealth should do the trick.

If it's worth anything, I see the Louisville Omaha used the most by the colleges I've seen.

Thanks you very much for the response. I have weighed my options and im gonna stick with the Reg. Flex.

1. I already have it and don't want to spend 60 buck sending it back and gettin the Stiff

2. The stiff is sold out everywhere around here

3. As much as a want to be a power hitter, i am pretty fast so gap hits would be better for my team.

Thanks for all of the info

im a 16 year old junior and we were just talking about those bats today. personally i like the stiff flex which is more for power hitters while the reg flex is for the smaller, faster guys like leadoff hitters and such. however, i prefer tpx bats, my favorite bat, me and my friend use and have combined for 10 homeruns this year is the Gen1X Response.

Yea I own the Regular...I enjoyed it at first, but I discovered that I lost a lot of power. I did hit a lot of singles and doubles this year with line drives which is fine, but the bat feels really weird. It is floppy and has no power on the handle especially. It takes a ton of BP to get used to it and now I wish I got the Stiff one because I am more of a power hitter.
