Top 5 or 10 Senior Bats
Rate the top 5 or 10 senior bats. Give a short reason way you rated them where you did, again keep it short. The bats can be any bat, senior, asa, usssa and Is the bat endloaded or balanced. The rateings need to be from personal experience and not hear say information from a buddy. I'll be useing this info for the purchase of my next bats or bats. Thanks!!

1. Ultra 11 - the mark that all are measured against
2. da Bomb almost as good as Ultra11, supposedly longer life.
3. Freak when broken in, what pop
4. Anti Virus, feels solid but I have not yet broken one in to know if it is better than the Freak
5 Synergy Extended gets lively quick but I broke three so far.

I have not used many others so I cannot comment or compare.

I have used the U2 for the past 2 years in SSUSA and 6 months ago added the Combat Dabomb and after the first 100 hits the Combat is every bit as good as the U2.

I have yet to try the Rip-It which sounds like it's right up there with these two.

1. Ultra (grey bat), Although illegal still the best ever made.
2. Ultra11, First after the grey ultra.
3. Worth's new launcher 510, Almost as good as Ultra 11.
4. Senior combat ,Hot , but not an ultra
5. There are many more that fall into this position on the
list, try them for yourself and see what works for you.

UltraII. I've tryed the Combat. It was ok, but maybe just not broken in yet. I put one out at Seattle during my 2nd at bat with my Ultra II. It just gets better and the ball jumps off with a !!!! evry time.

ULTRA II IS THE ONE TO BEAT. JUST RECEIVED MY NEW WORTH LAUNCH AND I WILL TELL YOU THAT THIS THING HAS SOME POP!! JUST GETTING IT BROKE IN AND IT IS EQUALLY AS POTENT AS MY U2.
I ALSO LIKE THE TAPERED KNOB ON THE BAT AND ALSO THE GRAPHICS (NOT THAT THEY DO ANYTHING FOR THE PERFORMANCE) BUT IT IS A DIFFERENT LOOK. IT GETS BETTER AFTER EVERY HIT AND FEELS THE SAME AS MY U2. OF COURSE, WE ALL KNOW WHO IS MAKING IT.

Heard that the Freak plus is going to be banned next year. Any truth to this?
