Hi Girish,

The plastic ball tends to hold up a little and as a result it can be a little difficult at first to adjust your push.  Push more into the ball and expect it will sit up more that you are currently used to.  Practice it a bit especially your short pushing and you will find you will start to be able to adjust to the plastic ball.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

I think its easier for the plastic ball to keep the ball you pushed low. It give me a heavier feel when i try to lift the ball. So, my push doesn't really go long or high.
