| Dec. 17, 2012 Pull My Finger 81 posts | 2 Piece Bats Now that DeMarini,Combat & Miken all have 2 piece bats on the market. I have been interested in buying one. Problem is, I'm not sure which is the best overall choice. Are they worth getting? Any suggestions? Or should I stick with the one piece I already have? |
| Dec. 17, 2012 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | Don't forget Easton, I believe they were the first as well. Personal preferences as well as the bats themselves are all somewhat different. Try to find and use one before you buy one. I tried the Miken a couple times and the owner didn't like it. I found it to be ok, it was brand new so need some breaking in. Got some good shots off and others were average. |
| Dec. 17, 2012 Pull My Finger 81 posts | taits I did not know Easton is making a 2 piece, bpf 1.21 senior slow pitch softball bat. Who and where are they sold? |
| Dec. 17, 2012 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | No 2 piece senior bats < 1.21> that I know of, but vg older bats that most likely would be considered old school. I wouldn't count them out for them though in the future. |
| Dec. 17, 2012 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | Easton will have two piece bats for utrip and ASA in 2013. The also hzave fast pitch now. Not quite the 1.21 standard. |
| Dec. 18, 2012 Lefty Men's 75 719 posts | All my easton bats hit really well in the cold. I have the white two piece BH stealth and hits great. Take the time and break in and the easton tri zone bats last 3,000 to 4,000. |
| Jan. 8, 2013 Wayne 37 Men's 65 773 posts | Easton made a two piece long before the Miken Bomb Launchers came out. I used one that some one had, and performed well. I am curious about the new Miken two piece. I saw a bat that was for 2014 yesterday. It just said Ultra, and was ASA approved. I have found several two piece Mikens for $209.00 with free shipping on eBay. Check out Kelly Sports on eBay for the 2014 Miken. |

| Jan. 9, 2013 garyheifner 631 posts | Pull My Finger Tell ya what I have seen: Corky let us hit a 27oz 2 piece Miken (batting practice)in Vegas. Even though I prefer a 29 oz., the 27oz we hit felt very solid. The black U2s all weigh an ounce more than they show, the 2 piece is right on. We weighed about 6-8 of each with Corky's scale and the above was consistant. In a recent visit to the Woodlawn hitting club in Florida, "3" guys in their upper 60s-70s had the 2 piece. They prefered the heavier 30 oz. All "3" bats had a very solid sound and the the ball jumped off the bat. I plan on getting one soon (2 piece) and use both (black U2)in the qualifers and decide which to go with in the ring tournaments. |

| Jan. 20, 2013 chikn55 Men's 60 28 posts | Any feedback on the two-piece Monsta senior bat the "Fossel". Talked to Carl from Monsta and he seems like a good dude. Anybody swing one yet? |
| Jan. 20, 2013 batter4u Men's 65 82 posts | I've had my combat 2pc for a couple of weeks and its hitting as good, if not better, as my white combat did,it took about 150 swings to open up but now the ball jumps off this bat with damm good distance. after my experience with the black mikens durability I ll stay with combat, |
| Jan. 21, 2013 Gorilla Boy Men's 50 271 posts | batter4u, glad to see the bat is playing well for you. Appreciate the feedback. Keep on swiniging for the fence. The bat only gets hotter....... Mighty Mike aka. Gorilla Boy |
