| March 7, 2010 Lefty Men's 75 721 posts | toxic xxx I must of got a bad xxx for 10 swings and the xxx cracked. I guess I want be buying another xxx. It's pretty bad when all I get is $20 a swing. |
| March 7, 2010 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Lefty, I was told that these have a short warrenty period. Check with the seller to see if this is true. |
| March 7, 2010 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Lefty/Bruce, I've got over 250 swings on mine and it's still going strong. In my opinion, it's as hot as an Ultra II. In fact, my Worth rep tells me the Toxic XXX is made at the same plant as the Ultra II which Worth also owns now. |
| March 7, 2010 curveball Men's 65 705 posts | I also haqve one that's cracked with less than 10 swings, 9 to be exact. It was hitting very well right out of the wrapper though; but at $19.50 per swing, that gets a little spendy! |
| March 8, 2010 #6 Men's 60 1173 posts | I have had one since the Winter Worlds, and it still is hitting strong !Just used it in Clute this past weekend. |
| March 8, 2010 stacks59 Men's 60 35 posts | I found that the worth bats have better pop and life with certain weights-i.e. 29 oz. was hot and the 30oz was not so hot! Has anyone noticed if a certain weight jumps out? |
| March 8, 2010 #6 Men's 60 1173 posts | I swing a 27 oz, it has been great ! |
| March 8, 2010 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | i had heard that the toxics were supposed to have better durability over the launches.mmmm sumpin fishy in denmark. |
| March 10, 2010 Lefty Men's 75 721 posts | Thanks Bruce I'll send it in and give it a try on the replacement. It's a flip of a coin what Worth does. See you in Montgomery next weekend. |
| March 10, 2010 monty25 Men's 60 113 posts | Lefty , Bruce will not be with us in montgomery due to scheduling. Hope the weather holds up last 2 weekends have been perfect for play but the outfields are like waterbeds due to the rain. monty25 |
| March 10, 2010 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Monty's right, I'll be in Cocoa Beach for Softbal Magazine's Sprng Training. Good luck to everyone at the Montgomery tournament. |
| March 20, 2010 Barry50 Men's 50 24 posts | I took out a 27oz, XXX and after about 25 cuts it broke in half. Not much for a new bat out of the wrapper. |
| March 21, 2010 Lefty Men's 75 721 posts | Barry 50 I've good news they sent me a new XXX. I heard at the tourneyment Sat. morning while we were eating breakfest. This guy was telling me the first batch of the senior XXX was breaking around 40 swings. I called worth up told them my problem she gave me a RA# and told me when I send the XXX in write a letter with it an explain my problem. Now it does depend when you baught the bat. I got mind in Dec. and told them I just took it out the wrapper. Good Luck. |
| March 27, 2010 Lefty Men's 75 721 posts | With hit bp today an tried XXX senior return and it just as good as any of the senior bats that I have. To me the ball jumped off the bat like the old ultra 2's. Might be just me. Really like it. Joe Lefty Falcon 08 Wild Bunch Softball 60M |
| March 28, 2010 #6 Men's 60 1173 posts | Lefty, It's not just you...I have a 27 oz. and love it ! |
| March 29, 2010 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Lefty/Kenny, I have a 27 oz. also. It will be my gamer until it breaks. I've also got a regular Ultra II and an Ultra II Maxload but I like the feel of the Toxic better. I know it's the basically the same bat as the Ultra II but I'm just sayin'... |
| March 29, 2010 einstein Men's 50 3112 posts | I heard the bats come off the "assembly line" different one to the next. Some are a little thicker, thinner, denser, heavier/lighter etc. This is not making microprocessors and there's a lot of room for variance in the end result so that, for example, you might get a Brand Name bat that is the hottest bat you ever swung and lasts 800 swings and the next guy gets one that will explode in 20. Luck of the draw, really. |
| July 23, 2010 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | Larry, I just got a Toxic XXX is there a break in time or are they ready to go right out of the rapper. 27 oz. is the one that I got. Should I use it in batting practice for the break in time or just go right to game time. Sorry we missed you in Dalton but SPA kept us AAA. Maybe some time soon.When I grow up I am going to hit them as far as you. Hope to see you soon. Harry |
| July 24, 2010 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Harry, From my experience - I have a 27 and a 28 Toxic XXX - they are hot out of the wrapper. I never use my "game bats" in BP any more since I broke 3 Ultra IIs one season. I have a couple of bats I take BP with and some others I use when I hit off the 'T' but not the Toxics. I was looking for you guys in Dalton; sorry I didn't get to see you. Good luck when y'all do go and I hope it is not as hot and humid as when we were there! |
| July 24, 2010 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | Larry, Thanks for the information. I will take your advice and use it in games only. I thought for sure that we would have been in Dalton but things did not work out. We are planning on going to Phoenix maybe we will see you there. We are playing in Glen Burnie this weekend it was 98 degrees and you remember how the humidity was when you lived here. Not good but no chance of snow. Thanks Harry |
| July 25, 2010 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | Larry, I took about 15 swings in batting practice and then used it in the game. I got 7 swings with it and was very pleased with the way the ball came off the bat. I will only use it in games from now on. Good to have a bat that can be trusted. Thanks Harry |
| July 25, 2010 lemons Men's 65 323 posts | Harry, How did you do in Glen Burnie? We go to Gallatin, TN next week-end. My knee is slowly coming around, how about your shoulder? Regards, Mel |
| July 25, 2010 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | Mel, We went 3 and 0 on Friday in the pool games and then as the number one seed 0 and 2. From number one to the out house. There is always Raleigh coming up. It was about 99 degrees and just miserable. the shoulder is ok not as much pain but I am going to go as long as I can before I have the rotar cuff surgery. Thanks Harry |
| July 25, 2010 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Harry, Y'all did much better than we did in Dalton last weekend; we were 0 and 2 in the seeding games and 0 and 2 and BBQ in the DE portion. We got out of there a day early! |
| July 26, 2010 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | Larry, Momma said there would be days like that. Better luck in the next tourney. Harry |
| July 26, 2010 Gallardo 15 posts | The bat is really hot out of the wrapper. I still prefer the Gold launch. |
| July 26, 2010 Q19 Men's 65 81 posts | My 27 oz. is still going strong and was hot right out of the wrapper. Almost a year old. Had the original gold Launch 510 but broke that one at the handle. Lasted about 7 months. Have broken a black Ultra II and the silver special edition Ultra II - just cracked on me in Turlock. Had less than 100 swings on the silver one. |
