Ok, as promised here is a video and review of the J3U.
temps: 11am 90 degrees! It's been hot as hell this week, topping 107 Friday and Saturday.
balls used: mix of well used and hot mush balls (44/375's and 44/400's)
field size: marked 315 LF, 340 LC, 425 CF, 370 RC, 296 RF corner
Thoughts: the J3U hits the mush balls well but not in the conditions we were hitting in. It was hot, I was gassed after one round of pitching before my round of hitting and the balls were hot so they weren't getting much distance at all.
At the end of T0mmyb0y's round I threw in 2 44/400 single layer xrocks and a 44/400 ZN so you can see the difference with better balls which the J3U hits very well. ( the one I hit after league last week went 340 with the xrock)
the sweetspot is pretty big as a result of the forgiveness from the handle flex, the 28oz is heavy I'm used to 27oz bats. It is end loaded also more so than the J2U. The barrel isn't as crisp as the J2U but feels more like a OG Stadium to me.
I hate the new knob...I like to drop my pinky and unless you have really big hands its a little difficult. T0mmyb0y uses an overlap grip and he seemed ok with it. I switched to a traditional grip and it felt like I was choking up.
My vid....I hate it time for a diet lol
