Hi Joe,
It is difficult to learn the game properly with this kind of bat.
The ball comes off very flat. It makes it difficult to develop your strokes. I would advise you try a bat with some sponge.

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!

Hi Joe,
You can be a bit more patient. It is difficult for them to attack with this kind of bat. If they are attacking with it, it is a bit harder for them to handle really heavy spin but they like the ball coming flat usually. If they are defending with it they won't mind too much spin. Try to keep the ball low because it is hard for them to lift the ball because of the lack of grip.
