Comparing softball bats and gloves on a single page!
On our website we have aimed to provide you with all of the information needed to make an informed decision on the equipment we have reviewed and provided advice on. However, if you are anything like me, I am guessing that you’d also be looking for a quick easier to read summary than a bunch of text. That is what this page is for. Basically what we have done is divide it into 4 different section depending on what you are after. Within each section, we have then provided what we feel are your top 4 or 5 choices along with the key attributes of each. The attributes will vary slightly but all will be related to what you’d want to know for each piece of equipment.
