    Guess I Misunderstood "Diesel"

    Thank you for telling me that. I was torn between the Smash and the Diesel and went with the Smash. Noticeably thin handle feels like all the weight is on the end. Haven’t swung it yet, hopefully this weekend. From the sounds of it glad I picked this one.

    Leaving the overlap grip behind

    I’ve been using the overlap grip since the early 90s, I drop 2 fingers under the bat for extra leverage. It makes that 34” bat into a 35 or 36” bat. As far as grips go you should do what is comfortable for you. Pick one and stick with it, You have enough to think about at the plate like are...

    Worst bat of 2018?

    Definatly the JH LS. Cracked the 2nd time I took it out. I really don't want to deal with LS returns they suck. Maybe I will turn it into a lamp.

    Softball Fans FireFlex SMU

    I vote for 12.5 and 1 oz endload. The Helmer Blue I have feels almost balanced with 1 oz endload. As far as name how about SBF Criminal Flex, or Sharknado Flex?

    New Jeff Hall Bat

    I debated buying the Hall 1000. The last LS I owned was a Z 2000 and it cracked in 30-40 swings. LS did not accept my return because they said I didn't buy it from an authorized dealer, I bought it from a guy at a tournament. Anyway got a deal from SBF so that problem should be eliminated. It...

    Price Check NIW 2017 *** Mayhem

    I have one in the wrapper and one I've swung. It hits great but as stated by others my Hall Legit hits great too. This bat has 1 thing others don't. It has a 12 or 12.5 inch barrel and a full oz endload. Hard to find that combo these days.

    Honey badger don't care...

    Hit mine Friday and Saturday with my BP partner. I want to qualify a few things before I start. I like endloaded bats more than a balanced one, but I was very curious about this one. Friday swinging this bat I was very unimpressed. I had a time just getting used to this one, but I put about 40...

    2017 Easton Helmer Flex Review

    Mine cracked about 600 swings in. Had it a little over a week and South Alabama has not been cold. I don't remember the last time I cracked an Easton since I am a few months from 60. I am going to call Easton and see if it will count against me.

    Nighthawk experts

    I agree with that, my Flex is pretty good but that Nighthawk seems like it has a tad more giddy-up on it. Just don't want it blowing up in my hands at BP. I want it to blow up hitting and stand and watch grand slam.
