I put a post on here a while ago about this bat. I think the bat is a real good bat. I would put it up against any of the senior bats out there today. To me they are all about the same. I have been hitting mine out here in Vegas and yesterday it was 100 degrees. I hit the 52/300 balls along with some 47/375. Bat played well. Very well.

Discussion: 2 piece Ultra broke after 6 games..... extremely disappointed

I know of a couple of people that have got about 100 swings on their bat when it opened up and they said the bat ungodly. Just giving my .02 worth. I have one I have been hitting and it has 85 swings on it. It is starting to get stupid. All I am saying is don't give up on the bat just yet. You spent good money. If you get a chance put 50 more swings on the bat and put another report down. Just trying to help..

Discussion: 2013 Worth Legit Senior Bat

I have been trying different bats from some of my friends that I play ball with. I even got a chance to hit with Stoneman the other day. His back is starting to come around. I purchased a Worth Legit Senior bat from Mike Macenko at Anaconda on the advice of another senior player. If you have not tried this bat yet please give it a try if given the chance. You will not be disappointed. I know there are so many bats out there but this one seems like it might have something. As usual with Worth bats the question is the durability of it. I have 135 swings on the bat and it still looks brand new. Has a great sound to it also. If anybody else has had a chance to hit one please respond whether it is good or bad. I just want to make sure I am not losing my mind.

Discussion: what is the.....

I think the White Centenarian and the new Miken 2 Max Load 2 piece from Miken have a big sweetspot and are more durable. There are a lot of senior bats out there. The new Miken Ultra 2 piece outplays all of the bats. The new white one that is endloaded. Just my two cents.

Discussion: Tired of breaking bats

When is there a bat going to be made that won't break? I can't believe the misleading info I see on this board everyday. A group of players I know bought 6 white Combats and they all are playing great except one. It is a friend of mine in Texas. One bat broke in 40 swings. Can the bat experts explain that to me. I want one of the white Combats but it is tuff on the money side. I would love to buy 1 bat and have it last 1 year. I still have a couple of USSSA bats that I use. I lose distance but it is still round.

Discussion: Centenarians review, 13" and 10"

I heard that Combat was all out of the white and black centenarians. How did you get any of them. Do they just sell to people who sell them. My friend bought one and had a problem with it and Combat said they could not replace it because they did not have any. Just curious. My friend is upset. He said he bought the bat in a tourney in Florida from person selling them from the trunk of his car. Was that you? I am just trying to help him. Now what does he do. I told him to buy an ASA bat...

Discussion: Centenarians review, 13" and 10"

See now this is where I get confused. All these percentages and numbers. Do I really need all of this. I just want to buy a bat. You say you sell all of the senior bats. Do you sell Demarini or Worth. I heard both of their senior bats were hot as heck. I was thinking about buying a Demarini. The One it is called. Do you get them from the facotry, or do you buy them second and third hand... Thanks in advance. I just want the best bat for my money.. I know most seniors have a lot of money to spend on bats, I ufortunately don't.

Discussion: Recommended ASA single wall bats

There are so many bats out today it really makes it difficult to choose one. I don't underestimate your knowledge of the game, you or Kevin. It is just hard to pick the right one. You say everyone has their own style. I play but am not that good at all. I just want to make sure I am spendin my money the right way. Sorry if I come off wrong.

So what you are telling me is that you and Kevin are the ones with all of the softball knowledge about bats and balls. That for the last 25 years you are the brains behind all of the softball equipment. Just being curious?

Not sure about your testing abilities. I did not know that there was so much testing to do to a senior bat. What about the two guys from Texas? They look like they really know what they are doing. Hitting on a baseball field with a glove as home plate 25 feet behind home plate. I heard this was key in breaking in the bats. I have learned a lot listening to their info. I would like to know more about the testing procedures.

Discussion: Safely increasing your Testosterone Levels

I have been in discussion with a number of people on this subject. Don't let nobody fool you. You are not going to get your libido back, and have the same results with natural vitamins and herbs. It just doesn't work that way. You want to give your money away that is your business. Go sell that on his website. Or you can go under the bleachers with Tim. I am sure someone will come out happy....

Hey 5Tools, did you get that chance to hit the Monsta senior bat? If you did how did it play? I hear it is a great bat. Just what I heard! Thanks.

Discussion: Warning on quality of Combat Bats

The bat the gentleman is talking about has enough swings on it. I saw the bat being looked at by some people by the SSUSA truck in Vegas at one of the parks.. The bat did sound like it was broke on the inside. I saw a gentleman let him use his own Centenarian and there was definitely a difference. I don't believe he is saying that Combat makes shitty bats because like Crusher said there are plenty good ones out there. I think he thinks it is defective and just wanted a fair shake. If the bat is defective then yes the manufacturer should help the customer out. It is good business. If the bat is not playing right because of misuse then he should not gripe. I know a guy that plays on their team from way back. Not trying to stick my nose in someone elses business. I just happened to be close enough to hear the conversations at the SSUSA truck. I hope they take care of the situation, but it looks like so far, bad news bears.

I have hit the Miken bat and it is a winner. Are you getting these Miken's direct from Miken. I heard that some other sources were selling them and rolling them as well as shaving them. I still can not believe that players do that to senior bats. Just curious. If it is straight from Miken then I would be interested in buying one. Thanks in advance. Do the different weights have different balance points as you have stated on other bats. I like a 27 ounce.

Discussion: Looking for some used Demarini senior bats with a lot of hits left in them

You should try e-bay. You might find something there. If not you can pick up a new one for around 179.00 for almost any senior bat..

Discussion: Is SSUSA trying to go too far?

I watch some of the games from different fields as I live in Vegas. Some fields are tougher than others to play on. Just the thought about playing at cheyene has the players thinking should I bring a gun or what. Might want to leave that one out next year. 450+ teams is a lot of teams to accomadate. The SSUSA does try and do their best to keep everybody happy. I just met Dave and Fran this year and they are super people that bust their butts to get it all done. It might be a little too much, but there is only one way to find out. Give it a try, and they did. The question is overall was the tourney an success? I don't know the answer to that but I would like to think so.

I got my seat reserved for next year at Big League Dreams for the championship.. Great effort to everyone involved.

Discussion: Combat Ambush vs Combat Twilight

I am new to this board but I do know a little bit about senior softball. I watch the SSUSA in Vegas because I live there. I am lucky to be able to watch some great games. I only saw 1 Ambush and I saw numerous Mikens,Reeboks,and some other Combats. Seems like Reebok might have had the edge but players were complaining that they break too easy, Not as easy as the Mikens but breaking just the same. There are other companies that sell bats with just as good customer service. I saw some players hit with the White Combat and those bals were hit long. Not saying anything bad about the Ambush, just think all of the senior bats perform well.

I play 60 div ball and watched the 50 major plus tourney at BLD and was quite impressed with the play of all of the teams. There was some really close games. I know OKI was playing real well and a few mistakes andit cost them the game. Really enjoyed the games.I am not on a team yet but do plan on it soon.
