Have 2 or 3 of them who swing the same weight bat pool their $$ and buy a used NRG or Recoil.

I'll put this bat up against any $100.00 ASA composite and I'll bet the farm that it'll out perform it.

another vote for the Dictator. I've never swung any kind of Anderson, but many people have said good things about them.

I guess $100 mint M7598's are all over the place after all. Or was this just a brag post?

X2, i'd love to see a minty M7598 for $100 or less.

Yes. Fastpitch bats are perfectly legal in ASA slowpitch. I often use one, and I've seen guys hit the ball out of the park with them.
If you're a small guy with good speed, you'll probably hit better with a fastpitch bat than a slowpitch bat.

I'd go w/ the Tator for that price.

There are a couple $100ish (used) ASA composites I'd take you up on that with.
In no particular order, the bats that come to mind that fit the bill here:
Techfire
Rage
Fury
Maniac 282
Maniac 484
ST1-Z
ST2-Z
STS4
Techzilla
RockeTech
TZCK
RTCK

I'm all for a hit-off, let's set this up
The RTCK vs. RTCK battle should be interesting.

I think mine is a little hotter because I have been swinging it.
Another idea is to check out a Replay Sports, or another used gear store, and look there. I found a nice Worth at my local Replay that was $300+ new for only $50, and it was hardly used.
In this tough econimic times, people sell off gear to get $, and you might get a good deal as a result...

I should have made that clearer, those were two separate thoughts. The $100ish composites I'd take on an RTCK with would be the Maniacs and the Techfires.
The others are all metal anyway, so they don't really fall into the "$100 composites" category.

Ah, ok. I was all confused. Carry on!

Yes, as long as they have the ASA stamp - and I haven't seen a modern fastpitch bat without the stamp - has anyone else?
These bats are getting some heavy use by a lot of ASA players.

I take it these are all non-ASA-approved bats?
What, are there renegade fastpitch leagues?

Techfires (Classic / Rage / Fury / OG Crush) aren't composites. The 1st Mizuno comp was the Blur, and it sucked.

Thought they were like composite/alloy/composite hybrids? That's composite enough in my book.
