MMMMM God Bless Texas !
I believe I finally
found a home. As I was driving from Florida to Texas I kept feeling like I was
coming home. I wasn't born in Texas, but I couldn't shake the feeling. SWBC Mortgage/Insurance/Investments/ect...
felt like I could be an asset to their company, they offered and I accepted. So
here I am In San Antonio, Texas. I feel so blessed I have a position that I
feel needed and respected, not too many people can say that. I am so thankful
for the job I have.
The leagues here play
ASA (and we all know how I feel about ASA). Not to mention I do not have an ASA
bat. Being the good Daddy that I am, my son Lance followed in his father's
footsteps and plays ball in the Air Force which exclusively play ASA so he got all
of my ASA bats. I am doing the borrowing deal until I can afford another bat. I
really do not want Helmer to send me another one this soon; I do not take
advantage of my sponsors.
North Park (who is a
car dealer here in SA) sponsors a team and they asked me out. I had a string of
games where I was hitting the ball hard and I was approached by a tournament
team asking me out, however they are an over fifty team (I am not quite there
yet), but I still was approached. I was also asked out for a Thursday night
team, which are USSSA!!!! So if you are in SA and need a veteran on your team
let me know. You can reach me at agillman50@hotmail.com

Jim_mer Stick !!!!
You have to try this NEW training device. The Jim_mer Stick, the warm-up bat you hit BP with. One of the biggest problems with hitters is their wrist, hands and forearms are weak. This training aid is easy to use and simple in it's design, one BP sesson and you will be hooked. Take a look at the new website. http://www.eteamz.com/jim_mersticksfla/ I love it so much I became a rep.
Easton's Blessing
First of all, I would like to thank Easton for the years of support. I have nothing but good to say about Easton and their employees. Some time ago I was given the title of Easton Field Rep. I am very honored. They trusted me enough to give me this title and I intend to not betray their trust and be loyal to them. I would like to thank Marty Orosco, Hex and Bart. Easton (to me) have always been good people. I hope there will be many years of good fortune for Easton.
YOUR FEET HURT?
Try Tanel they are worth the price. Kangaroo skin outside and glove leather on the inside they didn't feel like cleats. I have had mine for two years and they are still going strong. What an impression it made when both cleats came in a zip lock bag, extra inserts and shoe strings. I was going to quit softball until I bought these cleats.
3N2 Swing
I think the ball went 6 inches.

Long Haul Bombers Tour
There is a new craze in softball. Watching the Big Boys of Softball launching the ball out of major league baseball stadiums. I have watched team practices and noted the way that they adapt to different associations as well as surroundings, but this is just wild. Two chosen players from each manifacture and a set number of pitches to hit as many home runs as they can, as I said in a baseball stadium. Of course, everyone knows I eat sleep and breath Easton and Brian Wegman and Brett Helmer can hit some bombs (Serious BOMBS) I had my mind changed watching Denny Crines go 13 for 15. We were all sitting there wondering if he was going to go 15 for 15. If you get a chance to see these guys in action you gotta go. Easton, Worth, Miken, TPS and the new kid on the block Bass. Helmer and Wegs are still my favorite.
