Description

Built from Mizuno's ultra-responsive Black Onyx Carbon Composite, the Nighthawk's barrel provides absolutely everything a slow pitch player demands from their game-day bat. Its new Triple Wall Construction utilizes two thin polypropylene layers of film that are sandwiched between three thicker layers of composite. This film allows the composite barrel walls to "slide" and move independently, leading to lower barrel compression, higher peak performance out of the wrapper, and the largest sweet spot Mizuno has ever created. A stiff composite handle is then united to this premium barrel with Mizuno's patented 2-Piece LINK Technology. This thickness-tuned elastomer is key to the Nighthawk's ability to dampen vibration at a much higher rate than other bats on the market without any decrease in performance.

This bat is approved for play in USSSA, NSA, and ISA. Pick yours up today with our Fast, Free Shipping!

Mizuno's Back David player

Pros: I haven't swung a Mizuno since the Orange Crush. They shot themselves in the foot over and over since that amazing bat. My buddy had this at the field the other day and I decided to give it a shot. Needless to say I was impressed. The sweet spot is large and the end load gives me that little extra when getting through the zone. Mizuno is back in the game.

Cons: None

I've just recently started playing softball and was looking to purchase my first bat. In the description it says the bat is "endloaded," say I want to get the 27 ounce bat. How much weight would be at the end to make it endloaded, half an ounce, an ounce? Jake Rohrer
