me and my friends always played wiffle ball like baseball. We ran the bases. now we are getting to big. I made your strike zone and i was just wondering any rules or websites to go to to help us out. Thanks
The damn locobat site is under repair and it doesn't seem like it's gonna be up anytime soon. I wanna get the wifflepro black magic but I can't find anywhere to buy the damn thing. Does anyone know the site that sells them?
search new jersey wiffle and go to their site. They sell the exact same bat as the loco, except with a different, taped handle. You can also orde screwball bats from various sports sites and saw off the barrel to make a homemade loco for pretty cheap.
The screwball bat looks good but I don't know if I'd be able to fashion it. Where do I get a custom wooden handle and how do I reattach it successfully to make my own version of the loco
buy a dowel rod from your local craft store or wherever and use that as the handle. I think the size is 1 or 1 1/4 inch diameter rod. Use the plastic endcap and screw it on the bottom of the dowel rod for the encap of your homemade bat. Screw the barrel of the bat onto the dowel so that it is secure.
I ended up buying the NJWA one cuz I'm lazy. When I go back to school though I might spend another 30 to get a half a dozen barrels and do it that way sounds simple enough. Thanks.
Also I should have asked someone but I got the 34 inch. I asked my friend and he said a 34 inch is like a regulation baseball bat and that it should be long enough. I could have picked 35 36 37 or 38 as I assume you know. Should I have made a different choice or is it not that big a deal.
My homemade screwball stick is 35.5, it just depends what you are comfortable with, along with your height. Like for me, I don't want it too long or else I can't get it around for contact. Unless you're really tall or something, a 34 inch should be fine
Yeah I'm only 5'8" so 34 should do just fine. For the future let me ask this though b/c I'm not picturing it yet. Once you cut off the barrel of the screwball bat, you take the knob on the very bottom and reattach that to the bottom of the dowel?
yes. leave about 2-3 inches of handle beneath the barrel, and about an inch above the end cap so that you have about 5 -6 inches of handle cut off. I will put up a wiff vid with pics later and such.
Damn I shouldn't have been so impatient. I've waited long enough though I'm aching to use something other than a classic yellow bat. I bought that black easton bat at modells but the thing is too hard and crushes the ball to the point where it barely goes anywhere. Also, go cubbies
no you're fine with the new jersey bat, seriously. and the black easton is solid for the price. Another good buy is the cal ripken jr. quickball set that comes with a bat. the bat has a very nice, strong barrel and good for modifying. That's what Steff uses i believe. Price runs 15-20 bucks for the set.
Oh ok I see. Well thanks for posting up ur vids I learnd how to make the ball drop and throw the screwball 2 days ago but now I can't get that movement back on it got any pointers

the pitcher for the other team would be a lot better if he just had more velocity, but nothing can match your peavyness

No there is usually a backstop. We just didn't have one that day. The K-zone counts as well.

aye, the New jersey bat is a solid pick, though if you made a custom that is exactly what it would be.
