If you live where it's pretty warm most of the year like I do in SoCal, I don't think I should have to limit a bat to game swings only, and if I do it lasts about 400-500 swings.
I LOVED the way that G3 swung, I just think $220 is a lot of money for 1000 swings compared to some of the other manufacturers. I've got a Future that has a lot more swings than the G3 that is still going strong. No hint of giving up the ghost. I have a SRV4 that is a few years old I've hit in 60 degree weather, with every kind of ball imaginable, still going.
I really like Combat and loved the OG Antivirus. That bat lasted me a while with all kinds of balls. I just don't see buying a bat that barely lasts 3 months. It doesn't make sense when the competition makes bats that last through the whole warranty.
