We recommend hitting 150-200 balls at approximately 50% power, rotating the bat 1\/4 turn after each hit using the rotation numbers marked on the barrel.

Association rules and approved bat lists can change, so always confirm with your league or tournament director before play.\" } },\n    { \"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What is the difference between a balanced and end-loaded bat?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": { \"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"A balanced bat distributes weight evenly for a lighter swing feel, faster bat speed and more control. An end-loaded bat shifts weight toward the end of the barrel for more mass at contact, which favors strong power hitters.\" } },\n    { \"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What sizes does the Ruckus Resurgence 12\\\" Balanced come in?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": { \"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"The SRRUB12 is available in a 34\\\" length in 25 oz, 26 oz, 27 oz and 28 oz weights.\" } },\n    { \"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Is a balanced bat good for power hitters?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": { \"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Yes. Many power hitters prefer a balanced bat because the extra bat speed can generate just as much exit velocity as added end weight. If you swing fast and like to stay on top of the ball, a balanced 27 or 28 oz model is a great fit.\" } },\n    { \"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Does the Ruckus Resurgence 12\\\" Balanced need to be broken in?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": { \"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Like most composite slowpitch bats, it performs best after a proper break-in. Rotate the bat a quarter turn between hits, use regulation softballs and avoid hitting in cold weather. Smash It Sports also offers a bat break-in service.\" } },\n    { \"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Does this bat come with a warranty?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": { \"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Yes, the Ruckus Resurgence 12\\\" Balanced includes a manufacturer warranty. Visit the Smash It Sports warranty information page for details on how to submit a claim.\" } },\n    { \"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Can I use the Ruckus Resurgence 12\\\" Balanced in senior softball?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": { \"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"The SRRUB12 is approved for USSSA, USA Softball, NSA and ISA, not SSUSA senior play. Senior players should shop Suncoast senior slowpitch bats.\" } }\n  ]\n}\n\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Smash It Sports","offers":[{"title":"25oz","offer_id":67135784157555,"sku":"BT0517-25","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"26oz","offer_id":67135784190323,"sku":"BT0518-26","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"27oz","offer_id":67135784223091,"sku":"BT0519-27","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"28oz","offer_id":67135784255859,"sku":"BT0520-28","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/5766\/8405\/files\/SuncoastRuckusResurgence12_BalancedUSSSASlowpitchSoftballBat-SRRUB12.jpg?v=1792159256"}],"url":"https:\/\/smashitsports.com\/collections\/no-discount-slowpitch-bats.oembed","provider":"Smash It Sports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
