8U Smoking other modern bats Dixie Youth Coach and Dad coach
Pros: Great balance, amazing sound and pop! My son is using a old hickory JC1Y which is slightly different. This is his first year using this bat and so far in the first 3 games he is batting 1.000 with 3 dbls and 6 singles. He hits much better and further with this bat than his Easton S1 which is 17 oz. The Old Hickory is 21 oz. Great bat and I love seeing him crush balls with it. Keep up the good work Old Hickory!!!
Cons: NONE!!!
