HI
DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DONT GET TECHNICAL AT THIS EARLY AGE, I DID WITH MY SON AND ALTHOUGH HE WAS VERY GOOD IT KILLED HIS LOVE OF THE GAME ,JUST LET HIM HAVE FUN, EVERYONE TOLD ME WHEN MY SON WAS YOUNGER TO JUST LET HIM HAVE FUN WITH IT BUT I DREAMED OF THE NEXT MICKEY MANTLE AND IT TURNED HIM AWAY FROM IT, NOW HE IS 16 AND THE BEST PLAYER IN HIS HIGH SCHOOL BUT HE WONT PLAY,LET HIM BE A KID AND JUST ENJOY THE GAME AND HAVE FUN WITH IT AND THEN WHEN HE GETS A LITTLE OLDER WORRY ABOUT MECHANICS IF HE WANTS TO IMPROVE.
