I play on a team with a Worth Rep who tells me this bat is the Ultra II with a Worth label. As most of you know, Worth now owns Miken. I have hit the bat a few times and it was hot out of the wrapper. It does swing a little light to me - like an Ultra II.

I bought one for 166.20 & free shipping from downtoearth.
Swings pretty close to a MikenII, with the pop of a yellow combat. Durability? We'll see

tomm, I used mine in Las Vegas 11/16-11/18. As I said in my post of 11/10, the bat does swing a little light. I use a 27 but could swing a 28 or 29 in this bat - similar to my Ultra II. I believe the bat only comes balanced. The bat was broken in when I used it in Vegas and it hit a ton. I am not a HomeRun hitter as a general rule but did hit several long ones there. Of course, the ball carries very well in Vegas. Good luck.

Harry, I like them both! I swing the Worth when I play for my Worth sponsored 50 AAA team. I use whichever feels better at the time in SPA and SSUSA. I've been using the Worth more to see how durable the bat is. I've broken SEVERAL Ultra IIs in the last few years, so if bats are close in performance, I'll go with the most durable. LL

Tried my senior XXX yesterday with the tie and it felt stift. The maxload ultra2 felt stift and after a few BP swings it came off the bat great. As everyone knows know two bats are the same. So this XXX will take just a little longer to break in which is good for me. We'll see ball season starts. I've got plenty of bats to pick from.
