| Jan. 21, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | Big Dawg, Sorry to say that we don't have any of the yellow MM's left, new MM Gear 2 will be here after the first of Feb. We do carry the Original Grey one in stock. Give me a holler at 330-419-0205. Mike Macenko |
| Jan. 21, 2011 Mario Men's 50 451 posts | Gorilla Boy, will the new MM come in a 10" barrell? |
| Jan. 21, 2011 wagon487 Men's 55 578 posts | reebok and miken lovers, put down your bats. This is the bat to get, I have 4 and hope to soon have the new Blue MM! |
| Jan. 21, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | Mario, Sorry to say but no they will not be making the MM Gear 2 in the 10 inch barrell. The new model will come in the raditional 12 inch barrel. Either endloaded or balanced. I am taking pre-orders now. If you get it pre-ordered you will be one of the first to recieved the new model. There is a good chance I might bring some down to the T.O.C. Not for sure though. I hope this helps. Good Luck in the upcoming season. Gorilla Boy AKA Mike Macenko |
| Jan. 21, 2011 Dabigdawg3 67 posts | Mike, Thanks for the info ...I still have 1 yellow MM left and looking to get a couple more for this year.I play with B.Cooper your buddie and he can still kill it Big Cat!I will gave ya a holler later this week to pre-order one. |
| Jan. 21, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | Big Dawg, You tell Bernard to keep on hitting em. We Tarheels have to stay together. Give me a shout when you get the chance. I am a firm believer that the man up above swings left handed. That's what Craig Elliott use to tell me. He said he wished he would have been born lefthanded. Ha! Ha! Gorilla Boy |
| Jan. 21, 2011 bullet Men's 55 146 posts | Mike, I have talked to you a few times about the new bat. I'm from Akron, i would like to see one before i order one. I will be in FL, during the TOC. If you are going to have any there, let me know what park you will be at and i'll get one from you there. |
| Jan. 22, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | bullet, As I aid I am hoping to have some in my hands at that time. If I do I will definitely let players know what fields I will be at. Usually I am at one field while Corky is at another field with the Miken truck. I will try and keep you posted. Mike Macenko |
| Jan. 22, 2011 wagon487 Men's 55 578 posts | once more, put down your mikens, reeboks and worths, get the Combat Senior! Nothing beats the sound of a broken in combat, that "shotgun" sound is great. Best bat for your money and no I don't work for combat:) |
| Jan. 22, 2011 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | Time will tell if the durability and pop is there. The hype isn't always what its said to be about many bats. The Grey Combat is a great one. |
| Jan. 22, 2011 bernie Men's 55 77 posts | BigDog...I'll send you a sheet of bats I have for sale...let me know if interested by reply. |
| Jan. 22, 2011 bullet Men's 55 146 posts | I have used ALL of the bats out there,If you can not get a "old" Miken with 2000 ASA stickers on it, go with the Combat. I started using the yellow senior and OH MY, what pop it has. I am looking forward to getting the new one and get it broken in. |
| Jan. 22, 2011 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | gorilla,mike are you gonna be at the wed and thurs stuff that is going on. oh if elliot was a lefty he wouldn't of been the good SS he was.by the way i have his bat from the 80's(the one named for him). hope to catch you at TOC,you gonna stop by curts thing this year. |
| Jan. 22, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | Yes I will be there for the wed and thurs stuff. I kind of hate to leave this 1 degree weather. Ha! Ha! I would love to go to Curt's spring training but I don't know yet. Mama is on the Gorilla Boy's butt about traveling so much. Will see you at the T.O.C. Stay Warm.... Gorilla Boy |
| Jan. 23, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Big Mike, sounds like you are doing better that last year! Glad to hear that. I'll see in at the TOC. I still have three MM Combats, great bats! |
| Jan. 23, 2011 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | otay biggen,glad to hear your doing better like bruce says,missed ya last year. |
| Jan. 23, 2011 Gary19 Men's 50 2609 posts | bullet, how much pop do you need? 350' counts the same as 310'. :) |
| Jan. 23, 2011 JamesLG 420 posts | Is the new blue MM Combat the exact same bat as the older yellow model? For those who have switched from Miken to combat were the swing weights pretty close? How would you compare the sweet spot on a MM Combat compared to a U2? As you can tell I am thinking of making a change. Thanks: James |
| Jan. 23, 2011 bullet Men's 55 146 posts | JamesLG, if you swing a 28 Bal Miken, i would go with a 27 Bal Combat. Thats just me,i think they are off a little. An Gary19, 350 I want it in the road on field #1,besides the chicks love the long ball. |
| Jan. 23, 2011 Gary19 Men's 50 2609 posts | I knew you had a reason. Stay healthy, see you in the spring. |
| Jan. 23, 2011 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | to me the combats are almost dead on for sticker weight and even a touch lighter sometimes.i have had 2 27 el's that have weighed just under 27 oz's. |
| Jan. 23, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | Yes the new Blue MM Gear 2 is the same bat as the yellow one. The reason for the changes is the new 1.21 spec that the SSUSA wants stamped on the senior bats. So we designed a new graphic and color and away we go again. As far as sweet spots. To me any senior bats that are 10 inches or longer the whole length of the barrel is the sweet spot. Once really broken in I would say the real hot spot would be 6 to 8 inches. If I understand correct any bat that is developed since the SSUSA convention needs to have 1.21 BPF on the bat. All the senior bats of the past are still legal but they want to be able to seperate the bats from the 1.20 bats. Specifically the USSSA bats. I hope this helps. Hey Bruce does the new Reebok have the 1.21 on it. I have yet to see one in person. Anyway I hope this helps. Gorilla Boy |
| Jan. 23, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Big Mike, I'm in Washington, DC, working. I didn't bring my bats as it won't be over 48 degrees for the next two weeks. Maybe someone elso can report about what the bat reads. |
| Jan. 24, 2011 SLOBALL1 Men's 50 174 posts | Bullet check your e-mail. |
| Jan. 24, 2011 birdie Men's 70 802 posts | Bruce, If you are in D.C, Mr. Manassas hits( in doors) on Wed at 1100 am in Va. I do not know what your schedule is but I am sure that you are welcome. Thanks Harry |
| Jan. 24, 2011 bullet Men's 55 146 posts | Sloball,never got your e-mail |
| Jan. 24, 2011 SLOBALL1 Men's 50 174 posts | Bullet.AOL mail is down at the moment. |
| Jan. 24, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Birdie, I wish that I could make it but we are covered up with work, usually working until 7 or 8:00pm every night. |
| Jan. 24, 2011 hombre Men's 60 240 posts | Mike the new Reebok does have the 1.21 BPF.marking. The yellow Combat is my all time favorite. I broke my last 2 and am waiting to get my hands on the new blue one. If mama is willing, I'll definitely buy one at Curt's CST. |
| Jan. 24, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | Hombre, Thanks. I don't think I will be at Curt's. I want to go but probably not. If you want give me a call at 330-419-0205. Thanks Gorilla Boy |
| Jan. 26, 2011 Mr. Manassas 244 posts | Bruce...anytime..We always have room for you. |
| Jan. 27, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Thanks Mr, M, I appreciate the offer. I just glad I'll only have to walk from the hotel to work this morning. Hombre, what weight and load do you perfer? Bring $$ to the CST! :) |
| Jan. 27, 2011 Brett Men's 55 239 posts | evilsports.com has the yellow Combat MM 13" barrell balanced bats in stock in all weights. |
| Jan. 27, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | I would not waste my time calling Evil Sports. Bobby doesn't have any Combat MM's in stock. He doesn't warehouse the bats. They get dropped shipped from Anaconda. Believe me he doesn't have any. I wish he did. I might have to buy one myself. After all the dust settles I only have one good one for myself. The new Blue MM Gear 2 will be here soon. Hope this helps. Gorilla Boy |
| Jan. 27, 2011 hombre Men's 60 240 posts | Bruce, I appreciate the offer, but I ordered one from Mike last night. I would rather have gotten it from you for cash so my wife wouldn't find out that I've ordered another bat. LOL |
| Jan. 27, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Ha, ha! You can't go wrong buying from Mike. I'll probably be swinging mine at the TOC as I won't be used to my Reebok by then. |
| Feb. 1, 2011 sanlot17 13 posts | hey Mike..live in Wooster,OH and was wondering how much the new MM will cost? If you have one can I come up and get it!?...LOL thx! |
| Feb. 2, 2011 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | Sandlot17, $199.00 with free shipping... I wish I had some in my hands. Sorry to say that I don't. The new blue MM Gear 2 will be in soon. If you want to pre order one you can give me a call at 330-419-0205. When they come in the door they will be going right back out. I hope this helps. Gorilla Boy |
| Feb. 2, 2011 Rightrj Men's 50 57 posts | Hey guys, you can't go wrong with the new Blue Combat since it's the same design as the yellow one. Mike's a great guy to work with. I ordered 2 Yellow ones back in 2009, one crack this past season, with well over 1500 hits. It broke my heart! That was my MONEY BAT! The Gray one takes a little longer to break in, but is the most durable Senior bat on the Market.(in my opinion)The yellow I think has the most POP! |
| Feb. 2, 2011 bullet Men's 55 146 posts | sanlot17, being from Wooster, do you play senior ball anywhere.I'm from Canton and play in Akron. |
| Feb. 2, 2011 sanlot17 13 posts | Bullet, I'm playing in Barberton. 45-53yr division. Turning 45 in Feb. |
