Well, this is my first time putting in a few reviews, but the bats used are:
27.5 Future (26.5 future on way)
28oz Flipper Aftermath
28oz Juggy
Anyways, used hot dot 52's in 90+ degree weather and 2-3 44's mixed in.
First up was the Aftermath, this bat is hot out of the wrapper. I must admit, if felt like my sv98, but I thought I was going to break the damn thing after about 5 swings. That's judging from the sound of the cracking sound off the barrel. It sounded like my old combat DB, but the bat has some good pop to it, had some great distance, just weary about the durability of this bat (thankful for the warranty). The bat only has about 25 swings on it and feels game ready.
Second up was the 28oz Juggy. This bat felt a little heavier than the Aftermath, but I just adjusted my swing to fit the bat. The bat feels comparable to my j3a, but sadly I don't like the j3a. The balls weren't jumping off the bat like the Aftermath. The barrel feels soft, a little more effort to get the ball to jump off, and more knuckle balls. Honestly, I didn't care for the juggy at all, just didn't feel hot out of the wrapper, but there is only 10-15 swings total on it. I am sure after a few sessions of just swinging the juggy, it'll open up, but I already can tell it's not for me.
Last up was my 27.5 Future...... Enough said? This bat fit my swing and the 27.5 felt light to me. The balls were jumping off the bat, huge sweet spot, and no comparison in distance. Literally, none at all. The bat is very forgiving and suitable for my style. It separates itself from all other bats (except my sv98) and put maybe 10-15 swings on it. The bat feels very durable, great sweet spot, and impressed me. It is a used bat with around 50 swings on it prior to myself.
To sum it up, The future by a long shot. I can't compliment this bat enough, as it's forgiving, and durable. I was hoping for the juggy to impress me, but when I picked it up it felt like my j3a, and just felt like a knuckle ball bat. Others seem to feel different, but that's my experience with it. The aftermath is a great bat, only for 52's though, as it seems if you go with the harder balls it'll have durability issues. The future, AM, then Juggy.
