| Sweet! How did it go? I'm personal friend with a guy that sells them down in Appleton. What's your take on them?

| Mikey,
He didn't show up to the conference, so I didn't get a chance to talk to him. The founder of Rockbats was in a newsletter last month that a trade organization we belong to publishes. It sounds like they put out a good product and are pretty innovative as far as bats are concerned. I was kind of excited when I saw they were going to be there... left disappointed though.

| I like the pop of a rockbat but we've had mixed results with them in the past when it comes to durability

| I didn't even know they had those, so I doubt we have. Sounds interesting though, do you have pricing?

| I'm in contact with my buddy from Rockbat. I'll keep you posted on what kind of things, if any, he can do for us.

| I think the composites are anywhere from 79.00 to 99.00/bat. I believe they offer discounts on orders as small as 2 to 3 bats. Mikey could probably get more detailed information from his buddy.
