Cons: none

Best ASA Bat chris player

Pros: I play asa so i got the freak black looking for bombs. Its pretty hot right out of the wrapper but now with around 3-4 hundred hits on it its on fire. I hit two homers with it that were easily 330+. it has some spider web cracks on the barrel but its holding up fine. I'v swung alot of different bats and this is by far the best asa bat i'v ever hit with.

Cons: It does have spider web cracks in it, but it only means that its getting hot. Other than that nothing.

Not Happy With This Purchase Mike W player

Pros: The bat arrived in good condition. If you hit the small sweet spot, it can produce a decent line drive.

Cons: This bat is not worth anywhere near it's asking price. I almost think there is something wrong with the bat as there is very little pop in it. I took a lot of time to make sure it was properly broke in and am disappointed. I had a six year old bat that has much better pop and feel. Do not recommend.

Disappointed Brian Z player

Pros: Looks like a nice bat. 1 out of 50 swings gets results in good pop after 300-400 swings. Either this bat is a dud or the break in period is longer than most other bats.

Cons: Connected on the sweet spot last night and it went ~240 feet :(.

Pros: looks good. doesn't have nearly the pop that i was expecting.

Cons: doesn't feel like a true end loaded bat. my 28 oz feels like a 25 oz bat.
