BBCOR MAXUM Brad player
Pros: I'm so glad they brought back the MAXUM. I was worried I wouldn't be able to get another one after I heard COMBAT went under. The sweet spot on this bat is HUMONGOUS. Seriously, it's like Everest.
Cons: I do feel a bit of sting but that's pretty typical with a 1 piece bat.
Great to see COMBAT MAXUM back Mark parent
Pros: My 13 year old son has found the balance of the bat is perfect and the pop right out of the package is great. Continue to keep the Combat line around as long as possible.
Cons: Haven't used long enough to have a con.
Best BBcor bat out there Austin player
Pros: Bat has really good pop. Son used the Combat Maxum as a 14Uthis past year and loved it. He had lots of homers with this bat. As a 15U using the Combat Maxum BBCOR this fall. It has lots of pop and a large sweet spot.
Cons: Sound of bat.
Review Matthew Canelli other
Pros: Great pop right out of the box. Grandson ( 14 years old) hit a few balls 300 ft. the first time with this bat. I would say it has a lot of pop, and should get better in time. Not a bad price for what you are getting.
Cons: Non at this time.
Best bat for the money! baseballdad coach
Pros: Absolutely has a huge sweet spot Has a very long barrel Very evenly balanced Terrific "POP" Very durable
Cons: None so far
Awesome!! Makoto Miyashita player
Pros: HUGE sweet spot. Super balanced. Awesome feel.
Cons: Nothing
Combat Maxum Vs Louisville Prime Thomas Rodgers player
Pros: I am a HS Senior (2018) I am committed to a well known D1 College for baseball. I have had the opportunity to swing ALL of the "popular" bats. (Used LS Primes). I used the Combat Maxum 1/2 way thru summer season down at PG Events. I am telling you to run & get this bat. EXPLOSIVE OFF THE BAT !! The 1 pc construction bat lets power go right to the ball. LS is good bat, but Combat bat seriously made the ball jump.
Cons: Stinging!! The bat will teach you to square it up. If not, ouch. When you square it up, the ball flys effortlessly and it just feels good. LS Prime is forgiving on Miss hits, but I feel you trade off power for the anti vibration.
combat maxum Ben player
Pros: Huge sweet spot, great balance, gives feedback like a wood bat
Cons: if you miss hit the ball you will feel the sting
2018 COMBAT MAXUM BBCOR Baseball Bat: AB8MX103 Dr. Billy parent
Pros: This bat has a lot of pop...great feel and sound (not that 'ting' sounds but something more solid). Some folks on here reviewed it has having some vibration if miss hit...but my 15 year old reports no sting. This is quite a find for the price.
Cons: Nothing at this point...had it now for 2 weeks but a lot of use.
13U Adam player
Pros: huge barrel, no deadspots, great pop. My son was using a 2018 Demarini CS ZEN. He is now driving the ball father with his 2018 Combat Maxum. My son did his research and said he's glad he chose his Maxum and I didn't have to spend $400. - $450.
Cons: none
Heavy Da coach coach
Pros: Good pop good sized sweet spot Looks really nice Combat brand was always reliable
Cons: Feels heavier than stated weight. 32/29 feels like 32/32 does not swing light affects bat speed
Love this bat!! Eli player
Pros: This bat has a giant sweet spot which allows you to easily get the ball on the barrel. Also, it has a very balanced feel which I love. I got the 30" 27oz bat and I love it. Really love the conposite design, and I highly recomend it.
Cons: Little sting when you hit it on the end of the bat or on the handle, but thats common with a one piece bat
Lost pop Cal player
Pros: At first it was unbelievable. Great pop and felt great.
Cons: It lost its pop within 2 months and then it started to vibrate a lot. Overall i think it was a wasted purchase.
Combat Maxum 31' BBCOR Player player
Pros: Bat has a long sweet spot and is very balanced. Good pop right out of the bag.
Cons: Only con is keep hearing "nobody uses a Combat" A lot of the other kids use the Demarini or the 918
2018 Combat bbcor Leo parent
Pros: Cannot go wrong with this one piece composite bat. Great bat for the price, more bang for your buck. Expect the ball to carry further once the bat is broken in. My 13 year old really loves this bat.
Cons: non
great bat CK parent
Pros: pop and balance are fantastic.
Cons: none
combat max KEITH player

Cons: None!
best bat out there KEITH player
Pros: I been the beast when I use this bat I hit A lot of home runs
Cons: NONE
Fantastic Out of the Box Pop Matty Wiss player
Pros: Pop that makes you giddy Balanced Solid connection, nearly no vibration very durable Huge sweet spot great sound when you hit with it
Cons: very barrell heavy, so if you think that you want more weight in the handle, go for something more along the lines of a ghost x. I don’t mind though, so I love it.
Another great bat from Combat Jeff Coach
Pros: Nice and balanced with that HUGE sweet spot Maxums are known for. Good this on clearance for my 14u son going into BBCOR. He has had two other Combats that have served him well. He is not a power hitter but did hit his only HR with a Combat. Quality construction and a well put together stick!
Cons: None really. Just the adjustment from a -5 to a -3 BBCOR. I guess a con could be the OLD price, but pick this one up if they still got em!
Great bat!! Bryan Wells Parent
Pros: Great pop right out of the wrapper. My son had a drop 5 last year in 14U and loved it. Got him the BBCOR for High School and he loves this one too. Normally a solid contact singles hitter, both of the Combat bats have added to his power repertoire significantly. In his first High School game he almost put it over the fence. He loves his Combat bats.
Cons: None so far from either drop weight.
Good bat Jay Player
Pros: Very balanced
Cons: Little vibration only on the end of Barrel and down on the handle

Cons: NONE
GREAT BAT Steve O Parent
Pros: This bat was good straight out of the wrapper and got better once broken in. My son "14u" had plenty line drive singles, doubles and a few bombs with this bat. Never complained about stingers on miss hits.
Cons: 1 piece.
Awesome Andrew Jones Parent
Pros: Love it All combats have great pop
Cons: None
Excellent BBCOR bat for the price! Mike S. Coach
Pros: My son has had the DeMarini Zen -3 BBCOR and Easton Ghost X -3 BBCOR and he hits more line drives and with greater distance with this Combat Maxum -3 BBCOR than any of them. He loves it! It does seem slightly lighter than the others as well.
Cons: The knock on Combat has always been that they crack easily, but I’ll trade that chance for my son’s increased performance.
Combat Maxum Stanley Russell Parent
Pros: Great pop, good durability.
Cons: None
Great Pop Martin Ljung Coach
Pros: This bat is very hot out of the wrapper and after a couple of weeks practice starting our season hitting the batting cages it seems stronger. My son is in Pony and is putting the ball in select areas close to the back fence.
Cons: Can't keep the other team player off it. From a drop 10 to drop 3 is a little challenging for some but my son is 12 and 5' 7" and is able to keep up including 60 mph balls
BBCOR MAXUM Carter Miller Player
Pros: This bat is the best bat I have ever swung and hit with. Its huge barrel makes the bat super balanced and feel lighter than it is. The sweet spot is so big its hard to not hit the ball on it. I also have never really been a fan of the two piece composite bats I always preferred the one piece alloy bats, but this is a one is a one-piece composite bat, and it feels in-between a composite and alloy you don't get as much flex in the barrel as you would with a 2-piece. Over all this is a great bat for any hitter. Power or contact it does not matter I highly recommend.
Cons: None
Nice Greg Parent
Pros: Great sound and pop
Cons: None
WAS good Bryce Player
Pros: At first it has super hot
Cons: After a month the bat just died
