My son is 7 and small (45 pounds). Trying to decide between the Miken NXT Freak Big Barrell (-11.5) or the the Easton S1 Big Barrell (-12). Looking to create more bat speed, which one would you recomend?

Thanks for the question! Senior League bats are usually made for ages 9 through 15 and rang from 27 to 34 inches in length. Junior league bats are made for ages 4 through 7 are made for pitching under 40 MPH. The Junior League bats are 24 to 27 inches in length and are usually -10 to -14 length to weight ratio.
What oz bat should I get for my son? He is 7 years old an is 4 and half feet tall and 58 lbs.
We suggest a 29" 17.5 oz bat in the JNX11C NXT Freak. The JNX11C is a very good choice, has a very balanced feel and very good pop.
Will this bat work in machine pitch, up to 40 mph?
Junior Big Barrel bats have thinner walls and are only intended to be used in coach pitch. Using the JNX11C with hardcore baseballs will question the durability.
Can the JNX11C be used for kid pitch or just coach pitch?
Junior Big Barrel bats are designed for coach pitch leagues. Please check out our "Youth Big Barrel", or "Youth" section for kid pitch bats.
