| Nov. 7, 2020 Hawkeye49 | Topic: Bats Discussion: Axe Avenge SSUSA I received mine in the last Axe shipment, about a month ago. A little stiff to start, but it is really beginning to loosen up a little. Have had about 150 contacts with it so far. Sweet spot seemed a little narrow at at start, but that also seems to be expanding some. I do like the way the handle promotes rolling your wrists through contact. Time will tell! |
| Nov. 7, 2020 Hawkeye49 | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: TROPICAL STORM ETA SSUSA Staff. Read the National Weather Service report, the NOAA Hurricane Alert Center report, and the NOAA link I just sent. |
| Nov. 7, 2020 Hawkeye49 | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: TROPICAL STORM ETA Just Joe, did not see your post before I started another. I agree with you, and chollis 100%. Should not wait until the last minute to make this call. We are coming from Texas, and will need to cancel by no later than this afternoon in order to keep from losing refunds on air, auto rentals, and hotels, and condo. rentals. We need a call! |
| July 19, 2017 Hawkeye49 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Baseball Hall of Fame Anyone interested in a package to the Baseball Hall of Fame Induction Ceremonies at Cooperstown the 28th through the 30th of July? Due to an unexpected illness I have a package for two including hotel stay at Cooperstown, and Gallary seating at the ceremonies.

| Jan. 17, 2017 Hawkeye49 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Jerrys Crosscut Manager Can anyone get me in touch with Jerry, of Jerrys' Crosscut 60s in Tampa, Fl. Met him last November at the Winter Nationals, and had talked to him about shirts. Got away without getting his number. Have him call John Hughes, Texas Thunder in Friendswood, TX. 281-844-6363 |
| May 22, 2016 Hawkeye49 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: getting 3 games vs our 5 I for one, am very unhappy with the way the THCC/SSUSA tournaments are run. I could set here and tell you all the things that were done wrong at the tournament this past weekend, ( Heart of Texas )but this box is not big enough. I will tell you this. There are a whole lot of Managers who now feel the same way I feel. I was lied to, and that's all that needs to be said, and I also wasn't the only one. I have supported THCC/SSUSA very loyally for the last eight years as a manager, and sponsor of my team, but in the future, at least until some changes are made, I will play other tournaments. I usually play all the local, and state wide SSUSA/THCC tournaments, but in the future I will qualify my team at ElPaso, and play the State Championship, and that is all for THCC. This is supposed to be fun. Parker's tournaments always have issues, and its not because of weather, or facilities, or anything other than Parker. It's always about Parker, and not about team support, team managers, THCC, or SSUSA. It's always what's best for Parker. Done Hawkeye 49 |
