Description

New for The COMBAT MAXUM Fastpitch Softball Bat is for the players who are ready to take on more. Known as the bats with the longest barrels, the MAXUM also delivers ultra fast swing speeds. With the lowest swing weight ever offered in the MAXUM fastpitch lineup, you will be quicker to the ball with more control resulting in more confidence at the plate. Add in the MAXUM sweet spot that has up to 40% more hitting surface in comparison to previous models and you will notice a significant difference in plate coverage against any pitcher out there. Each MAXUM fastpitch softball bat is superbly crafted with a seamless construction. A carbon-fiber sleeve runs the length of the softball bat providing uniform strength for a fine-tuned performance day in and day out. Unlike typical composite bats that are created by rolling or overlapping layers of material, the MAXUM is produced with advanced Precision Molding Technology (PMT). The PMT process injects liquid resin into seamless high-quality carbon sleeves under extreme pressure. The result is an ultra-consistent product that eliminates seams and weak points that you get with the traditional process. No seams means no dead spots and in on the hands doesn't have to mean out at first base. COMBAT: Measure Up To MAXUM!

This COMBAT MAXUM Madison Shipman -13 Fastpitch Softball Bat: FP7MS113 is used and approved by National Pro Fastpitch Softball player Madison Shipman. This softball bat is a one-piece composite design that features a -13 length to weight ratio, a 2 1/4 inch barrel diameter, and Lizard Skins Grip for enhanced comfort and reduced vibration. Also, this MAXUM is approved for play in ASA, USSSA, NSA, ISA, and ISF. Of equal importance is the fact that COMBAT is backing each model with a full twelve (12) month manufacturer's warranty and a 30 Day Performance Guarantee. If you are not satisfied with your Madison Shipman MAXUM within 30 days from your purchase date, you may return it for a full refund or exchange.

10U travel Amador Diaz Jr parent

Pros: Daughter is smaller so this bat is great as its not end loaded and swings like a feather. The increase in bat speed, bat control, and pop in the bat has really improved her line drives and confidence.

Cons: Cant think of any at the moment. Daughter loves the bat and its pink!!!

Good, affordable bat Jen B parent

Pros: Purchased this bat for my 8-year old daughter. Nice and light so she's able to come around much faster. Only used in practice, but looking forward to getting out on the field with it.

Cons: Couldn't really rate Durability as we've only had it a few weeks.

great bat, unbeatable price julie coach

Pros: This bat has the largest barrel I have ever seen. The swing weight is the lightest most balanced weight. I coach and I am very picky about bats and I absolutely recommend this bat. There is a clear difference in distance from the kids hitting with this bat vs other bats on our team. Unbelievable price for a composite too. *if your child has bad mechanics, this bat wont fix her distance or quality of hits. But if your child swings properly, this bat will make a difference.

Cons: Graphics are kind of boring.

Horrible durability Softball Mom parent

Pros: Light weight and great for my 8 year old to get around on with.

Cons: Durability is horrible. Thought it was a rare occurance it broke after a month of use sent it in on warranty and was replaced. we were excited for a new season this year with it. after less than a month of practice the 2nd bat is now broke in the same place. Week one of practice another player decided this bat was a good fit for her also and ordered her one. Tei weeks later at the first tournament of the season hers has also broke in the same place. Thats 3 bats in the same spot there is definetly a defect in the structure of this bat.

High Hopes, Poor Results Jay coach

Pros: Was looking for a new bat that was comparable to my 8 year olds size and swing capabilities. After reading reviews on this bat, I really liked the balanced load and lighweight. When we recieved it, my daughter loved it immediately!! Throughout practicing 3 times a week her contact with the ball/basehits went from 4 out of 10 (.400) to nearly 7 to 8 out of 10 (.750 BA). Her confidence, due to the control of the bat really skyrocketed. Both her and I were happy with the bat she has come to really enjoy, until...

Cons: The darn thing cracked from one side to the other near the NSA 2012 logo and the start of the pink logo. This bat was being swung only by her and for only 2.5 weeks of practice at 3 times per week. Basically, 7 practices. There are no more 27" in stock, anywhere that I can find. I have really contemplated going back to that bat in a 28" or going with the 27" Mizuno Finch. Since there are no gaurantees after the first exchange, I don't think I want to run the risk of getting another one of these.

Great bat for the money Mike Parker coach

Pros: Very light, weighs exactly what its listed as. My 47lb 7 year old was struggling with her Easton FS3 that was signifigantly heavier than listed. This bat is very hot right out of the wrapper. She had her furthest hit ever in a scrimmage yesterday and couldn't stop smiling. I highly recommend this bat for any girl, big or small.

Cons: None so far, she loves it.

Decent bat, durability not that great CJ Bruner parent

Pros: Decent all around bat, lightweight so my daughter felt good swinging it, she also liked the look (like it matters -.-).

Cons: Durability is not good. In the final game of the season (the only season she got to use this bat) she hit a hard shot and it literally put a hole in the bat. It's not because she is too strong, but I believe the quality of this bat isn't up to par on the durability part. But for 50 bucks you can't ask for my much, it made it a full season. Going with Louisville Slugger from now on or Demarini.

Questions and Answers

Have a question about the COMBAT MAXUM Madison Shipman -13 Fastpitch Softball Bat: FP7MS113? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

I don't see any reviews for this bat and it is not listed on COMBAT's webpage. (1) Can you tell me more about this bat? (2) Why so cheap? (3) Good performance? RICKEY AITKEN
(1) This 2017 COMBAT MAXUM Madison Shipman -13 Fastpitch Softball Bat (FP7MS113) will come with a one-piece, all-composite design and a very balanced swing weight. As well, the -13 length-to-weight ratio will make it a very attractive model of bat for use by a younger player. (2) The bat is able to be sold at a cheap price because we were able to buy the bat a a very low price from COMBAT [COMBAT is no longer making bats and had to liquidate their inventory]. (3) Unfortunately, I have not been able to hear back on the performance, but the MAXUM was a very solid line of bat overall and since you can purchase it so cheap, it may be worth trying out.
Ben
Is this a composite or an alloy bat? Possum16

My daughter plays 6u second year and is familiar with hitting but she is thin, not real strong but she is tall. What size would be best for a 3'11 1/4 height and 48 lbs. Bella
Based on your daughters height and weight we would recommend a 26"/13 ounce 2017 COMBAT MAXUM Madison Shipman -13 Fastpitch Softball Bat (FP7MS113).

My 6 year old daughter is in her last season of Dixie league sweeties t ball. Would this be a fitting bat for her to use? Kim

Carter
My daughter is 8YO, 66lbs, 50". Based on all bat size recommendation charts she should have a 28" - 29" bat but when I have her stand with the bat to her side it comes way up the arm. If the sizing is recommended to be between the palm and top of wrist even the 26" is pushing it a little. Should i go with the 26" to be safe or larger? What is your recommendation? BMRGOLF
Based on her height and weight and what else you have told us about your daughter I think that you would be safe with a 27" or a 28" 2017 COMBAT MAXUM Madison Shipman -13 Fastpitch Softball Bat (FP7MS113).

Does the bat have the finger print on it? Josh mccarta
Yes, this 2017 COMBAT MAXUM Madison Shipman -13 Fastpitch Softball Bat (FP7MS113) comes with the USSSA 1.20 certification stamp on it. That USSSA certification stamp is often referred to as the "finger print" or "thumb print" stamp.

My daughter is 12 and 51"tall weight is 101 and am looking at this bat size 30/17 would this be a good choice or should I go up in length and weight?? She has a great swing but sometimes she is a little late so that is why I liked this bat. Jay Mayhew

Cameron
I just purchased this bat for my daughter. So far, not complaints or problems. Seems to really be helping her swing and hit. I just noticed this was discontinued and it worries me that it was discontinued because there is something wrong with the bat. I gave $70 for this bat, so if there is a reason it was discontinued because it has any defects or something of that nature, I would like to know. Thanks Tiffany
This bat is only marked as discontinued because Combat as a company has gone out of business. Combat made very quality bats, unfortunately their parent company had financial issues and so Combat was dropped. We will cover the warranty claims on any Combat bats purchased from us.
Kyle J.
I know it says discontinued. Where can I find this bat? My daughter really wants this one. Laura
Unfortunately it would be tough to find the 2017 COMBAT MAXUM Madison Shipman -13 Fastpitch Softball Bat: FP7MS113 at this point. One would need to search places that sell used bats.
