				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since our inception two years ago, we&#8217;ve been waiting on the LocoBat to finish the upgrade that the website promised.  Well, we wait no more, and let me assure you, the wait was worth it!  This bat is awesome.  It&#8217;s a very clean mesh of a custom tooled wood handle place perfectly within a plastic &#8220;Screwball&#8221; bat barrel.  No screws, no tape, just a bunch of voodoo and witchcraft that turn these two pieces into one phenomenal bat.  And for $20?  You bet I have a new go to when someone asks me, &#8220;Chad, I have $20, which bat should I buy?&#8221;  It&#8217;s that good, ladies and gentlemen.  That.  Good.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s finally here.  Well, it was finally here, a week ago.  And, it.  Was.  Awesome.  We had heard the rumor, from a fellow in Wyoming of all places, that Marshmallow Peeps are excellent fodder for Wiffle bat consumption and had to find out.  We separated out several boxes of Peeps and left some fresh, some slightly stale, and some were hard as rocks.  See the results for yourselves below.  Oh, and the Chinook helicopters?  Yeah, that actually happened, on purpose.  Eat your hearts out!  Happy spring, happy wiffling.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We thought it was high time to give you this information we received from a site user.  Bradon has a four year old son that likes to play wiffle ball with his Dad, but a four year old has a darn hard time swinging a 34 inch bat.  The solution?  Make your own bat with a real tee-ball bat handle, and a chopped, epoxy&#8217;d, and foamed <a title="Easton Pro Stix 1000" href="http://sahdwiffle.com/easton-pro-stix-1000/" target="_blank">Easton Pro Stix 1000</a>.  Here are Bradon&#8217;s instructions.</p>
<blockquote><p>I had an old t-ball bat cut down and the post was sanded enough to jamb it into the end of the Easton. You can see that the Bat End was shopped and then a portion of the bat was used to sleeve the End Cap back on. The bat was filled with foam and then drilled out. Cool little bat.</p></blockquote>
<p>You&#8217;ll see that he &#8220;had a t-ball bat cut down&#8221; and didn&#8217;t try to do this himself.  People, please leave the heavy lifting to the pros.  When you finish, you just might wind up with something as cool as this.</p>
<p>Thanks, Bradon!  And happy wiffling!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It has occurred to me over the last couple of years that keeping score is something we don&#8217;t take as much time with as we need to.  We guesstimate the better hitters and pitchers and call it a day, but many other people do it differently.  How do you keep score for your games?</p>
<p>One of our users, JSS, has been using the paper and pencil method which works great, is time tested, and will keep you straight.  He&#8217;s been kind enough to share his<a href="http://sahdwiffle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Reisner-Scoring.pdf" target="_blank"> .pdf file</a> for your consumption.</p>
<p>So, SAHDwifflers, what are we missing?</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mid-march is upon us, which can only mean one thing.  Backyards are about to come alive with the sound of cracking plastic!  As with every year so far, the offseason has meant we&#8217;ve been tinkering with the site, trying to make it a little more user friendly, and ultimately, a better experience for you.<br />
</p>
<hr />
<h4>Things we&#8217;ve added?</h4>
<ol>
<li><span style="line-height: 13px;">Follow buttons on the sidebar for your easy access to us on other mediums, e.g., Facebook, Twitter, etc.</span></li>
<li>Share buttons below each post and at the bottom of each page.  We wanted you to be able to easily share a story from our site to your friends, family, dog, whatever floats your boat.</li>
<li>More fitness.  Last year, we were an embarrassment.  We were lucky to even hit the ball 100 feet in good conditions.  This year, both Casey, and I, are leaner, meaner, fighting machinier (is that a word?).  We&#8217;re going to bring the pain (figuratively).</li>
</ol>
<h4>Things we&#8217;ve taken away?</h4>
<ol>
<li><span style="line-height: 13px;">Not that we&#8217;ve actually taken it away, but we&#8217;re still ad free!  That means all content is what we actually think, not what we&#8217;re paid to think.  Same with our reviews.  Remember folks, this is not a money-making venture for us, we do it out of the good of our hearts and our love of the game.</span></li>
<li>Between Casey and I, we&#8217;ve removed at least 50 pounds of lard.  Jason may have added ten, but overall, we&#8217;re down a hefty amount, and we did it all for you.  Our healthier selves will live longer, and provide the best plastic reviews until you&#8217;re in your rocking chair on your front porch yelling for kids to, &#8220;Get off my lawn!&#8221;</li>
</ol>
<p></p>
<hr />
Overall, we&#8217;re psyched for a great season to be upon us.  When the weather finally cooperates, you can bet your bootstraps that we&#8217;ll be outside ready to go.  Any recommendations for bat reviews, ball reviews, or gear reviews? We&#8217;re looking into a couple of bats, a scoring app, and a few other things so far, but you are the ones that want the info, so tell us what you want.</p>
<p>As always, happy wiffling!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I know we&#8217;re not a news site, but dang it, this is pretty spectacular.  <a href="http://www.mensjournal.com/expert-advice/gear-of-the-year-2012-20121127/blitzball" target="_blank">The Blitzball has won the title of &#8220;Gear of the Year&#8221; as awarded by Men&#8217;s Journal</a>.  The magazine annually reviews cool guy gear and awards the coolest with the title, &#8220;Gear of the Year.&#8221;  To give you an idea of some other winners of the award this year, there&#8217;s the Apple MacBook Pro, the Tesla Model S Electric Performance Sedan, and the Easton Kilo 3p carbon fiber tent.  We&#8217;re talking cool stuff here, people.</p>
<p>Most people we talk to through this website are solely interested in Wiffleball, and that&#8217;s good and well, Wiffleball is great.  But, let me take this opportunity to say to you, <a title="Blitzball" href="http://sahdwiffle.com/blitzball/" target="_blank">Blitzball</a> is the real deal, folks.  We&#8217;ve said it before.  We can&#8217;t recommend them any higher.  The company has superb service, will answer any question you have, and have a product that anyone can have a great time playing for a long time.  If you haven&#8217;t had the chance, <a href="http://collegehillgames.com/" target="_blank">go get yourself and your friends some Blitzballs</a> for Christmas, and give someone an updated backyard ball of joy (that didn&#8217;t come out right).</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A website fan and wiffle ball player in Missouri has sent us pictures of his new field addition&#8230;lights!  He hosted the first game under the lights and these were his thoughts.</p>
<blockquote><p>It turns out that while the lights are good for slower, straighter pitches, not so good for 4-5 foot breaking pitches, it was all strikeouts or walks after dark for the good pitchers.</p></blockquote>
<p>He reckons that you&#8217;d better be careful if you&#8217;re playing under the lights in determining the correct bat and ball combo to use.  In his case, they were using wood bats with <a href="http://www.ejourneytohealth.com/servlet/the-154/12-Junior-Sized-Wiffle/Detail" target="_blank">junior wiffle balls</a>.  It just goes to show that the standard setup you&#8217;re used to, may not be the best option for your game.  Change things up a bit and try new combos in order to achieve the best game for your setup.</p>
<p>Now, on to the best part&#8230;pictures!</p>
