My son used this for training for about a year, from the end of his 6th grade year to the beginning of his 7th grade year. He mainly used it for practice swings and tee batting (softball). There are noticeable scratches and dirt on the head, but the rest of the bat is relatively clean. I am selling it because he no longer uses it.
