I use the Stan Mil Mits in fact I just picked up a new pair from Mr. Hayward last week.

JCApops, another great hitter that never used batting gloves was Mark Grace. Also everyone before about 1970 did not use them. Time goes on.

I will date myself here...but I never wore batting gloves because when I played there was only wood bats...no aluminum. I think the aluminum bat is the reason most players use gloves...to lessen the sting that seems to come with swinging them. There is 3 generations that have grown up on aluminum.

the right batting glove can be all the difference. Its up to the individual hitter. for guys w/ability its the mind-confidence thing that puts you over the top. same old story, if something negative is in your head then you will be less effective at the plate.

Due to our game being rained out today, I went over to Strikes to work out with my favorite hitting instructor Steve Hayward. While I was there I picked up a new pair of Stan Mill Mitts. As posted earlier I found out that they are now called Strikes Batting Gloves. They are available at Strikes Baseball Academy. Try them and you won't ever use anything else. www.strikesbaseball.com.

Huskie Power, actually I am still wearing The same ones that I used last season. The ones that I am wearing have been thru two HS seasons as well as a summer season, fall season,and all of the lessons I take with Steve Hayward. I think that the QUALITY is second to none!
