Pros: swinngs grate good pop
Cons: no
Pros: Real nice bat. My son really likes this bat.
Cons: none
Pros: little to no break in time. first BP session my son was hitting great with this bat.
Cons: none
Pros: Nice pop, good bat, great
Cons: Why did you wait so long to buy it!
Pros: Got a replacement for the Sluggers' 30in, since it was a tad too long for some of the players. Can't say anything poor about it. Breaking in time: less than 800 hard impacts. Some suggested rolling, but I was against it. It was broken in within a few practice sessions. Now, the balls pop right off the bat. Side-by-side comparison to the Sluggers' Catalyst and the Easton's Mako by our players, this bat beats both in the break-in amount, and on par with the Mako. Durability: on par with best bats. Our players have power hitters that fell in love with the bat. They dropped the Mako and Catalysts, and went for this instead. No matter the amount of pounding and tossing around, this bat barely have any scratch on it. No dent to speak of as of yet. It already has over 3500 hits on it. Vibration: whether or not we're used to the heavy vibration from aluminum, the players could tell the great different between the aluminum, hybrids, and composites.
Cons: Vibration: although the vibration is greatly dampened, rookies still don't like the stinging sensation from a heavy batting session. Of course, they complained about pretty much everything. We changed to the Buzz Off grip, and no more complaint. Grip: Some complained about being slippery when using bare hands after 5 minutes, some said it had an odd sticky feeling. We changed to Buzz Off grip, and you guess it, no more complaint.
Pros: Nicely balanced. Ball launches off it with a great sound. No hand buzz. Builds confidence.
Cons: Finish isn't terribly durable. A week old and already getting scratches.
Pros: great balance and plenty of pop
Cons: none
Pros: Just received this bat in the mail, so my ratings are neutral, however, I was very impressed when I got this bat out of the box. My first reaction was to read the bat and make sure the word baseball was on it, and didn't order a softball bat, I could tell it had a longer barrel by the pics, but was more surprised at it's length once I opened it. Immediately hit the cages with my son this evening, got about 100 hits on it, seemed to have pretty good pop and speed off of it, time will tell, once broke in and in an open field.
Cons:
Pros: great bat, my son(10 years old) loves the feel of the bat. he was 20 feet short of his his first grandslam (homerun) last week. he didn't complain about any vibration at all during the game. he doesn't want to use it during batting practice at the cages because he likes to use his wood bat for that and he doesnt want to "mess up" his combat bat.
Cons: none
Pros: Just picked this bat up after researching why it was so cheap. It looks like Combat is done as a company but not because the bats are bad. My son is 12 and is 5'5" 140lbs. Big strong boy and his swing is on the long side and he has struggled with the end loaded bats over the last couple of seasons. he's a contact hitter and loves the even weight distribution of the Combat. His biggest comment to me was that it feels lighter than the 31" 19oz" DeMarini that he's used to swinging. This weekend we put the bat through it's paces and over a two day period broke it in with about 400 soft toss hits into a screen. Yesterday I pitched to him as I would like a normal BP session and he was driving everything into right field on a rope(lefty) and hit the fence on the hop a few times with garbage balls really. This is a great bat for contact line drive hitters. I probably should buy a spare as the company is no longer around and I read that Easton bought the rights and will charge big $.
Cons: If it breaks I'm not sure what the warranty will be like seeing the company doesn't exist but at $50 it's not a break the bank investment. The jury is still out on how my power hitters hit with this. My son is a contact hitter that sprays line drives and he loves it so far.
