| Nov. 2, 2016 southerinman Men's 50 52 posts | Bat Information Picked up 4 bats in trade and was looking for some input on them. I got 3 Senior Salvo's, 1 used 27 and 2 NIW in both 27 and 28. Also got a NIW Easton BSR in 26. I swung the used Salvo in a BP session and wasn't impressed with it although I don't think it's had enought swings to be broken in yet. Anyone swinging thiese? Any information would be appreciated. |

The issue is durability. If you swing hard you will Crack it rather quickly. I don't know about the balanced version. I know people with the older elder and it is a tank. Takes forever to open up but once it does they love it. The thing is people give up on it well before getting it to open up. |

| Nov. 9, 2016 southerinman Men's 50 52 posts | No, I actually have 3-4 OG U2's to swing thru before I have to look at new senior bats. I usually watch ebay or CL and pick up bats cheap just to try them out, then sell them on when I can. I picked up a 28 oz Hyper Z which swings a little heavy for me for 100$ and 2 Dudley Lightning for 225 (27 balanced and 28 endload both sold) and a 26 oz nightmare for $100 I traded old ASA and NSA bats for the 4 I mentioned above. |
