Glad you were able to point yourself in the right direction and stumble upon the House Of Swing Web Site developed by yours truly Mike "Big Cat" Macenko.. I
think if you stay here long enough you will see some things that I believe you will only see here...

I have spent many hours maintaining this web site for the last 24 years. It has been on the Internet since 1998. I have done all of the designing myself which is not professional but I enjoy writing and promoting this great game called slo-pitch softball.

I quit playing competitively 20 years ago after the 1997 season. I felt like I had played long enough and had made my mark. So after playing ball for the majority of my career with Dave Neale I felt it was time to step back, as I had played and worked for Steele's since 1983. I use a program called Dreamweaver to develope the site.....

Like I said I have put information about a lot of the teams and players that I played with and played against from Yesteryear. From 1970's until the late 1990's I like to call it Yesteryear because it is a long time ago but it sometimes seems just like it was yesterday....

So after 40 years of playing, selling, promoting I got hooked up with the number one softball company going when Adam Peterson signed me to a Personal Service Contract with Miken and Worth Sports Co. I have had the good fortune to have them use my name on their first Senior Signature Softball Bat... They have been making bats since 1998 so I was very happy when Adam brought me aboard. After I got involved more with the company Denny Helmig (National Softball Director) brought me on board to sell the great line of Worth Slo-pitch softballs. So now I am selling and promotining the finast softball equipment in the business.... The 2023 model of the Big Cat Supermax is the 9th model that they have designed and used my name to endorse the bat. Thank You Miken and Worth Sports Company!......

I have been working since 2013 for Miken and Worth promoting and selling the High End composite Softball Bats. I have been to their factory and watched their company develope their bats from the beginning to the end... It really is something else. After walking through their plant.. I understand why they make the #1 Composite Softball Bats in the country.....

The picture on the right is from 1977... When I first started playing softball I was a little on the wild side and had long hair and loved to listen to Jimi Hendrix and the Band Of Gyseys.... I use to hang with my uncle Marty Hunt, Fred Guger and Johnny Neale..... Those three broke me in when it came down to learning and teaching me how to play this game.... They did a heck of a job.. Went won't talk about the first tourney I played with Pesano's Rest. We will save that for the book..
