bats
Hello Tattooball, what bat are you refering to for durability and performance?

It is a new bat not out yet. I am meeting with manufactures in the beginning of July. To date the bats hit as well as any senior bats out there but last. We have yet to break one, everything on this bat is just what a senior will want. Durability, sweetspot, performance, and great feel. As of now we are hitting farther than most with no failures.

Senior bats break in and get hotter to the point of failure, this design stays at a set compression so the performance never fades, this also makes it much more durable. I am using a material that is different than what bats are made with now so they are stronger and perform great. The sweetspot is 1 inch from the end to 1 inch from the taper.

Thanks for that, I break 3-4 bats a year. If you need someone to help testing in the midwest, let me know.

Chick UNFORTUNATELY you are about 100 in line. We have been hitting them in the N.E. for a month now. Many are looking to get one.

No but he does keep bugging me for one. They will not leave my possession until I am ready. Now if you want to come up and hit them you are always welcome.

Kevin, then make it 101 guys on your list.
:-)
I know a ton of guys that really like their Combat bats, whichever species, and will be thrilled to know that they'll be even more durable.
If the break in time is reduced then this will be a double bonus.
Good to know...

Finally - a search for bat nirvana continues. Hope these 'new' ones will have a warranty if they are so durable?
