Can I still use the old ASA .44 Cor 375 compression balls with is bat? mnewcomb
The 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA (FRK52A) would be better suited for the .52 core lower compression balls that ASA now recommends. You can still hit the .44 cor balls but you will have durability issues.

The 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA (FRK52A Slow Pitch Softball Bat) will hit the .52 core balls even better then other new Miken bats. The 2015 Miken M Nation Geno Buck Maxload ASA is a Miken Slow Pitch player model bat.

The 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA (FRK52A) is designed for .52 COR balls only. You will run into durability problems if you use the .44 COR balls with the Freak 52. So the softer 52 COR balls will not tear up the bat.

How does the Miken Freak 52 compare to the Miken Psycho ASA bat? I am looking to get either one of these. Cesar
The 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA: (FRK52A) and 2015 Miken Psycho SuperMax ASA: (SPSYMA) will be extremely similar. Both models will incorporate a one-piece composite design and will be very high performing. The 2015 Miken Psycho SuperMax ASA: (SPSYMA) will have a slightly heavier end-load than the 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA: (FRK52A) by about .5 ounces. Both models also have extra technology added in to help improve durability and performance. Overall, they are extremely similar, but will have a slightly different weight distribution.

How Does The Freak 52 compare to the DeMarini Flipper Aftermath? Cam'ron
The 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA (FRK52A) Slow Pitch Softball Bat is a one-piece composite design with an end loaded swing weight. The one-piece design creates a stiff feel. The DeMarini Flipper Aftermatch is a two-piece hybrid design with a more balanced swing weight. The Flipper has an alloy handle and composite barrel. The two-piece design provides the bat with a little more flex.

Does this bat have the USSSA BPF 1.20 stamp on it? tiger
The 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA (FRK52A) Slow Pitch Softball Bat is only approved for play in ASA, and it does not feature the USSSA BPF 1.20 performance mark.
Mac
Can you hit batting cage balls with this bat? Eric
We do not recommend using any non-wood bat, including the 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA Slow Pitch Softball Bat (FRK52A), in commercial batting cages that use yellow "dimple" balls. These balls are more dense than the game balls that the bats are designed to hit. Also, many manufacturers list in their warranty details that hitting these balls will void your warranty against defects.
Mac
I am 270 pounds and I am swinging a 28 ounce Easton Salvo and a 30 ounce in the ASA league. Should I buy a Miken Freak 52 in the 28 ounce or should I buy a 30 ounce? LiveAction
If you are able to swing the 30 ounce Salvo well, I would suggest going with the 30 ounce of the 2015 Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA Slow Pitch Softball Bat (FRK52A). The heavier the bat you use, the more power you can produce.
Patrick
How does this Freak 52 match up with the newer Miken bats on the market? Shane
This Miken Freak 52 Maxload ASA Slow Pitch Softball Bat (FRK52A) matches up great with all of the Miken bats past and present. The Triple Wall Design of the PWR 360 technology provides this bat with a ton of pop and distance.

About the Brand
During the past few years, serious softball players have looked to Miken Sports for bats that provide the highest levels of performance and durability. Our relentless focus on both technology and the demands of players has made Miken the most demanded line of softball bats today.
Although composites are the latest trend in softball bats, the technology has been the core of Miken's success since the company's inception. Miken pioneered the modern high-performance composite softball bat in 1998 and has pushed the limits with every model since. No other bat company has driven innovation as hard, and the results are indisputable. Look around. If a player is serious about softball, they are most likely swinging a Miken bat.
The success of Miken Sports has been driven by two forces - innovation and a passion for delivering what players demand. The results are obvious. Players have decided that composites are the future for bats, and no one does composite like Miken.
