Pros: This bats legit. You can swing hard and not fear it breaking. It also has nice pop. This bat also had a very nice weight distribution. It is neither top heavy nor light.
Cons:
Pros: feels great, has great pop, and looks great too
Cons: none
Pros: Good practice bat. I think it's a -2 so it helps build strength.
Cons: It CAN break. I thought it was unbreakable. I had the handle taped and decided to re-tape it. I took off the tape and, low and behold, it was broken under the tape.
Pros: Solid nice grip. Nice pop very strong. Very nice looking. All around amazing bat. Get One!!
Cons:
Pros: Love this Bat. Stonger then most bats must use one to know what we mean. Ball jumps off this bat.
Cons:
Pros: 3 components to why this bat is great for practice: it, like all other woods, has a smaller sweet spot than an alloy bat, it's heavier, and it lasts a long time. I had a 33 that lasted me for a year. The only reason it cracked was because I caught a ball off the end. I just bought a new one.
Cons: People will be asking to use it constantly.
Pros: I won a hitting contest against our team 2 1/2 years ago and used it ALOT. I hit almost every day with it. Then last summer I used it alot also and had no problems. I broke an ash (regular) bat within 2 weeks the summer before. NO DOUBT the best bat to own. We also have a cage and I used it every week since summer and it finally split after I hit one of the end. I hit off an iron mike
Cons: (no cons, just continued) that throws about 85 for those 2 1/2 years. My brother bought a composite bat that wasn't supposed to break and it did within his first summer using it. Great feel and power with this bat also. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking.
Pros: this bat is great, i got it in June and I still use in the batting cages today. It is definitely the best bat out on the market
Cons: none
Pros: This is a great bat. Teammate of mine said I could use it...he never uses it. Man what a bat. The bat is solid, is live and is well distributed. I've used birch, maple and ash. Now use this and birch. Great bat any way you look at it
Cons:
Pros: i have a 34' bat and its great. i rarely dont hit the ball solidly with it. i like the feel of the handle and the know is small and comfortable , it definetly big for me but its helping me with strength in hitting.
Cons:
Pros: -2 weight good for building strength.
Cons: Feels dull. Also, just broke mine today and I think that was the result of a crack that happened last year. I just don't think it's as durable as marketed.
Pros: my son uses this bat in little league. He smashes the ball consistenly. great pop off the bat. Slightly more heavy than aluminum. Stand further back in the box to adjust. A fun bat, try one.
Cons:
Pros:
Cons: I broke 2 of these bats in the first half of our season (within 8 games). Both broke at the handle on inside fastballs. It broke up the handle, it didn't saw it off. My team has broke 4 of these this year. Warranty covered the first bat, did not cover the 2nd bat. Will not buy Mizuno again. Will be a composite bat or Brett Brothers Bamboo.
Pros: this bat has great pop and is very durable. It is a great bat for practice and strength build up because of it's end loaded wieght distribution.
Cons: i have a 34 inch and the bat feels very top heavy which isn't good for contact hitters like myself.
Pros: amazing wood bat,it is very durable and dosnt sting if u hit it on the handle like other wood bats,if u hit right on the sweet spot u cant feal it
Cons: u dont have it
Pros: Good balanced bat that has a nice feel to it. When you hit it square the ball really jumps. I have hit all other kinds of wood and have settled on Bamboo for the price and feel.
Cons: No that durable. It marks up very easy, and does break. I broke 2 in a 20 game season this year. Overall still a good bat for the price, but have your receipt ready for that 90 day return.
Pros: Amazing bat, used mine for 2 years constantly before it broke. New one has 3 months on it and I expect many more.
Cons: NONE
Pros:
Cons: Junk. They do not have any pop and break extremely easy. I played baseball at a big division 1 school in the Big Ten and have never swung a bat this bad. It broke on the swing. All 5 balls were off the sweet spot. Mizuno customer service is horrible and took 5 weeks to send me a replacement. Look at Phoenix bats, they make great maple and composite bats and are wonderful to work with.
Pros: Looks good and is very balanced. Mine seemed to have pretty good pop. Mizuno's costumer service it pretty good. I called spoke to a person and had my issue resolved quickly.
Cons: After reading as many reviews as I could find I decided to buy this bat because of it's duribility. Turns out this bat is not that durible. I was jammed on a pitch and the bat broke after 7 games. Mizuno replaced it and in my 3rd at bat with the new one I hit a ball above the label and the bat broke. I called to complain and mizuno is sending me a 3rd bat even though its only a 1 time replacement
Pros: This bat is VERY durable and strong. I've had it for 6 months, and over that span, this bat's taken a beating. Yet, knock on wood, it hasn't broken on me yet. Very good. Well help you build bat speed. Good weight distribution
Cons:
Pros: This bat is simply amazing. It's pretty heavy, and that's why i liked it. it helped me build strength and bat speed.. I put it through hell. I've had this bat since last X-mas and i've being using it non stop. Of machines, live, and in a few games. Mainly my BP bat. It'll help.
Cons: It finally broke the other day, and not even during use. My coach got mad, picked it up and slammed it on the ground.. The Handle splintered and cracked :(
Pros: This bat has a very solid feel when you hit with it. No give when you make contact, like with other wooden bats. The weight distribution is exceptional. Haven't had the bat long enough to really put the durability to the test, but there are no chips, dents, etc. in the wood. Mizuno has really outdone the competition with this bat
Cons: Miss hits aren't a pleasure.
Pros: Looks like it can get the job done.
Cons: Didn't get the job done. Broke at the handle. First day of use.6th at bat.
Pros: using the bat for bp/cage work...holding up good for 2 months now We have the 31" and the sweet spot is only a coulple inches, which is giving my son the feedback he needs to find the sweet spot...otherwise the ball goes nowhere
Cons: It is on the heavy-side for an average 14U player.
Pros: Purchased originally for BP. Have just purchased two more for reg. season play. Best bat I have ever used. Great sweet spot with tons of pop. Nicely balanced and I love the -2 weight. This bat is tough as nails. Have used it in 3 to 4 BP sessions (cage and live) per week since Nov. and it's still hitting lights-out in Feb.! Well worth the money.
Cons: Absolutely none!
Pros: Very good looking bat classic feel, hits good with alot of pop and very durable if taken care of. Also very balanced. Recommended
Cons: No cons
Pros:
Cons: you must hit the sweet spot to feel great pop. other wise the bat feels dead and I broke mine with a solid hit?
Pros: Great weight throught the swing. I actually broke this bat in a tournement i was playing at but the warranty is amazing so i got it replaced right away.
Cons: wood bat
Pros: Had great a great pop.
Cons: Got this bat a week ago and crack.
Pros: Has great pop, won't break easily because of bamboo wood. Great for swinging to increase bat speed.
Cons: none!
Pros: Very durable. Balanced. Nice pop
Cons: Very small sweet spot. Feels awful unless you hit it exactly on the logo
Pros: My son likes the bat. This is the third I have bought.
Cons: Good thing I bought 2 because the first one broke on his first at bat. He has been batting with wood for years and knows hot to hit with wood.
Pros: Good grip and feel.
Cons: Supposed to be very durable but my first couple swings dented the barrel
Pros: great bat it has very good pop. I went to a wood bat tournament in Florida and hit .568 during the tournament. Great bat, Good pop, and there isn't much sting when you get jammed.
Cons: Lots of people say its very hard to break these bats but I ended up breaking mine in the cage but the bat was used a lot.
Pros: This is a very good bat. It has lots of pop and feels smooth and clean when you hit off the barrel. I also love the grip Mizuno put on this bat.
Cons: Don't use this bat in the cold. Being from Pennsylvania, the weather is still very cold in early March and because of that my bat cracked, and it wasn't because I hit it at the end or got jammed, because when you do that you can tell when you crack it, and I couldn't. I don't blame Mizuno for this because I should have known that wood bats aren't good in the cold.
Pros: Very big sweet spot and good weight. Not terribly top heavy feels nice and balanced
Cons: Broke in 4 days in a Cage at 75-85. Was with dimple pitching machine balls but 4 days for a bamboo is terrible.. This will be on Tee duty from now on. Cracked/Split right on the handle.
Pros: My coach had this bat laying around and I asked what he wanted for it and he gave it to me. It was a 34" bat and I usually swing 33" bats and I had absolutely no problem swinging with it. Has good pop for a bamboo. If you're looking to step up an inch on a bat, get this.
Cons: Knob is kind of small.
Pros: Good pop and feels great
Cons: Handle cracked the second time using it :( (within 2 weeks of getting it)
Pros: Well balanced, gives a smooth swing;
Cons: Boke in first game; dont feel that the ball jumps out of the bat; grip slips a little
Pros: Nice pop, hit a couple of homers
Cons: When i was looking at the bat after 2 weeks I noticed that it marks really easy.
Pros: POP: MY 16YR OLD SON BOMBED 2 400FT SHOTS WITH THIS BAT @ THE NOTRE DAME TOURNAMENT AND ON THE 3RD HIT OF THE SAME GAME IT SHATTERED. BEST $79 I EVER SPENT
Cons: THE PITCHER FROM THE OTHER TEAM WAS SAD
