> I was wondering if there is a big difference between slow pitch softball bats. I can go to my local store and pick one up for prices that range between $20 to over 250. Is there a big difference betwwen the bats? If so how big a difference to bats make and which one is good one to purchase as I am not a good power hitter.

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE, THE CHEAP ALUMINUM BAT ARE $20-100 BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE ALOT OF POP TO THEM AND IT TAKES A STRONG GUY TO MAKE IT GO ANYWHERE. THE $100+ BATS ARE USUALLY ALLOY SINGLE OR DOUBLE WALL OR COMPOSITE. THE COMPOSITE BAT HAVE A GREAT POP AND HAVE THE ABILITY TO DRIVE A BALL FOR THE SMALL GUY. NOTE: COMPOSITE BATS DON'T LAST LONG, THEY WILL CRACK AND BREAK. YOU TAKE THE GOOD WITH THE BAD!! ALSO, MAKE SURE ANY BAT YOU GET IS LEGAL IN THE LEAGUE YOU PLAY. DIFFERENT LEAGUES HAVE DIFFERENT BAT RULES! TITANIUM BATS AND MODIFIED BAT ARE ILLEGAL IN ALL LEAGUES!!!! I RECOMMEND A WORTH MAYHEM M7. IT HAS ALOT OF POP AND IT HAS LASTED AWHILE AND HAS ABOUT 1000 HITS ON IT, BUT RESEARCH ALL BAT BEFORE YOU SPEND A TON. I HAVE SEEN ALOT OF MIKEN'S BREAK AND CRACK, BUT PEOPLE STILL LOVE THEM !
