Great Bat. It would be nice to know the durability. My 28 oz has 250 swings.

I have around 500 on mine and it hits piss missiles. It has had a slight handle twist since around 50 swings but does not affect performance.

Update. So I just got another one of these. A used one from an auction site. Bat looks in good shape but the same slight handle twist. Must be more common that I'd heard of.

All of my Hyper Z's ended up with the slight handle twist within 100 swings - but they are still going strong.

Good to know. I was worried when mine first did it but hasn't effected performance that I can tell. Cut off all that original bar tape and it's a nice end loaded bat. With it left on feels more balanced.

I just received a 28zo Hyper Z from Softball Magazine's Senior Camp. I'd like to get more than $139 (of course) so I think I'll try Craig's List first. I checked eBay and prices for a new Hyper Z, including shipping ran from $125 to $199. Seem like the average price is around $150. I'm curious as to why some pay $189 or $199. Do they just fail to check on completed auctions??? Or, do they just like some customer service ;)!

Seems incredibly low at that price.
Just make sure it's not a China or Taiwan address, or you may end up with a sawed off kiddie bat instead ;)

There's more of these out at big price drops. I wonder if Louisville had a storage full of new bats that had handle twisting without a swing on it. I say this cuz I got another one because it was so cheap. Well it's in the wrapper and it has the twist. Wth.

...yes i was blown away by the price so i asked a local bat ***** and he confirmed that it is a gtg site, paypal and everything, lol
has any one posted pics of a "twisted" chubby checker bat? i haven't seen the defect, but have seen it referred to a few times here ...

At $70 with shipping I ordered me another one. I have a 28oz already and it hits great. Swing weight is a different than the other end loads I have. But after 200 swings this bat hit great.
