Feb. 16, 2005 Burdman 20 posts | Calling All Hitters OK Hitters. Help is needed. I'm a 6'2" 215lb 50+ linedrive hitter with occassional HR power who has broken his last U2. I'm looking for other ideas and am considering the Synergy+ or the Catalyst. All suggestions appreciated |
Feb. 16, 2005 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | You neglected to say what association you will be playing. I just got a Freak Plus and really like it. Its legal for all execpt ASA and NSA. |
Feb. 16, 2005 Burdman 20 posts | Thanks Bruce. I play in the Florida Half Century League which is currently ISA. What's your take on the Synergy+ and Catalyst? |
Feb. 17, 2005 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | I hit a prototype Catalyst at the Smoky Mtn Classic last year and didn't like it. I was told that it had 1000 swings on it. I still have a Synergy +, 28 oz and it hits good. Our team was picked by Miken so I can't use it now. It probably would have been my bat for 2005 for NSA, ISA and USSSA. |
Feb. 17, 2005 crusher Men's 75 524 posts | Burdman, the Synergy+ does have some GOOD pop in it. With the core47 / comp525 balls you could hit them out of the park. I have not hit the 44/375. The Crush has some good pop also but seems to dent. |
Feb. 17, 2005 stig 52 Men's 50 46 posts | From what I am hearing the Catalyst is the most durable composite bat around. It has yet to be determined how hot it is. I hope it turns out to be a good lively bat with good durablity. It is crazy to have a bat break or dent with a few hundred swings. Bat companies do not want bat durability. They want you to buy as many bats as possible. |
Feb. 17, 2005 Longballr9 Men's 40 48 posts | It's my opinion the Worth PST is the most durable bat made today. They have teriffic pop. 350+ is no problem, though the bat has more of a linedrive makeup. It's definately the most expensive bat out there. 2 year warranty. I won't swing anything else. I guess I should get Worth to sponsor us! Have a great year, gentlemen. |
Feb. 17, 2005 Burdman 20 posts | Guys, thanks for your input and if anyone else has anymore ideas I'm open. We are using 44/375 balls and if I can hit 310-315ft shots with the bats you guys suggested as opposed to the 320-330ft shots with U2 I'll be more than satisfied. Thanks again. |
