Don't swing a -3 bat at 12? That's stupid. You're body will be ready for a drop 3 when it's time. A lot of physical maturity happens between 12 and 14-15, when you'll need to swing a -3. My son used a -8 at 12, -5 at 13 and used a -3 the fall before HS, perfect progression. Why screw up your 12 yr season swing at bat you can't get around!
The next step after 50/70 is 54/80 so you're not going straight to 60/90.

I'm suggesting using -3 to be ready for Jr HS / Middle School Ball.

Our Jr HS / Middle School program is 60/90 baseball.

It's not for us. Once in 7th grade and playing School Baseball...we play 60-90 and have to use -3 bat.
