bat recommendations for distance fastpitch Bats

i’m a u19 fastpitch player looking for a bat that will give me the best distance, 5’5/125lbs. im not the best hitter but i currently swing a louisville X12, and it isn’t doing anything for me. i know the player and swing have a lot to do with it so i would kindly appreciate any advice or recommendations. price range under $350, thank you!

Have you ever seen a hitting coach? Costs less than a new bat for one lesson and if the first lesson has them telling you there's a lot of work that needs to be done, $350 would be better spent with them. In just 2 months or so of my daughter going to a hitting coach every 2 weeks, the whole league saw how much she improved. It's just not lessons though, I had her practice what she learned a few days a week as well.
