Jackie
Pros: My daughter is on a 10 and under travel team and she is hitting the ball in the outfield and bunting better with this bat. She was using combat Lize Fernandez 28 and 18, now hitting with rip-it 30 and 18.
Cons:
softball life
Pros: omg helpful better than white one has the same pop and the cap dosent come out big sweet spot
Cons: nothing to say maybe make it cheaper
Coach Jeff
Pros: The "sweet-spot" in this bat seems pretty wide and it does have great "pop" when hit within the sweet-spot.
Cons: The bat seems heavier than listed. My 10u daughter is smaller than average and her swing speed was slower than with the old bat at the same weight.

Pros: Looks nice, when unpacking the grip had scuff marks, the girls liked the grip, but it could have been thicker.
Cons: Bat doesn't give pop noise, more like a thug noise, not as loud as a composite, like I heard on site.
playermechanic1
Pros: Finish is great when it is out of box.
Cons: Balance like advertised. Sound of ball is like a thug, you have no feel when hitting ball. Finish only lasted 1 tournament and could now use a paint job.

Cons: little tag came off the end of bat first time she used it
