Using Clincher gold balls which would you pick


OG Ultra 1
Asa Ultra 2
Boombah Cannon
Easton TiPhoon?


Purely looking for distance
Thanks!

Golds are a step softer than 52/300s but a little heavier, IMO. They still fly pretty well.
Outside of the TiPhoon, whichever one is more broken in. OG Ultra or Cannon would be my first choice, all things being equal. Haven't swung a TiPhoon. All the bats are great, so swing the one that feels the best and you'll be fine.

A metal bat.

The heaviest that you can handle. 30oz plus.

Golds and Corkers are different than the regular Clinchers. Regular Clinchers are a lot more spongy. Golds and Corkers will get the trampoline effect from composite bats.

Agree. I've hit Clincher golds a time or two. They're almost like a normal softball, and have a poly core. I won't say they fly great, but a reasonable swing will put them over a 300' fence.

Composite bats will work on them.

Cork Clinchers are OK until they get smashed up a bit. After that no bat will really hit them well.

Yes agreed!

Thank you for this.

They do fly somewhat well.

So what is the absolute best bat for them??

The best bat is whatever works for your swing. Start swinging all the different bat models that you can get your hands on

The best bat I’ve found to hit Clincher Gold’s with is the og TPS Genesis.

Double Barrel Ghosts have worked for me against softer balls. Both clinchers and even softer training balls.

Yep, I use my Easton BlueLine a lot. I love the sound, like the ASA LS Z1000s.

For maximum distance with Clincher gold balls, I would recommend the Easton TiPhoon. This bat is known for its excellent pop and distance capabilities, making it a top choice for power hitters aiming to maximize their hitting distance.
