I just worry about the pitchers.....had one come back and hit my #1 in the knee, she didnt have time to get the glove down to protect....

With girls having "flawless swings" now, pitchers throwing harder and harder, no one has time to get the glove down. IF the hit it with the glove, it's just good reaction time...and luck. Pitching in any level is dangerous.
I think moving the older girls back is an idea to consider...college throws from further back, so why not move HS back to 43 feet?
As for the bat, I love it. It has a great sound to it, and really makes solid contact. Saw a HS team last week with 6 of them, with three more on the way. Saw a Freshman team Monday that has 6 ordered (individual girls each with one). Seems to be the bat of the future...and present.
But more importantly, is #1 okay?
(Had two pitchers last weekend get drilled my non-Anderson bats...both okay though).
