Steve.......funny you should mention Titanium Bats......

There is one of my daughters friends whose dad played men's FP.....4-5 years ago......we went up to Houston to watch a few games of a tournament he was playing in.......(The only men's FP here at that time was a Senior league.....and they have since moved up to Houston......anyway.....I digress...)

One of his teammates had a titanium bat that had been painted to look like a regular bat...........my daughter's friends Dad hit a rocket with it during a game......he is very athletic........but NOT very big guy.......his teammate hid the bat in his bag for the rest of the tournament.......

I have another friend who is the Slowpitch UIC for our District who claims that there are companies that will repaint bats to make them look legal.......He played SP for a number of years and swears that the sound off of a Titanium bat is different......
