4.5
I feel good when using it. I notice that the weight is properly distributed over my wrists and shoulders. It didn't strain my wrist. A balanced stick is very important in hitting. I caught steady and nice hits without shaking. Love to play.This thing looks sick irl. The deep purple is sweet. I like the rubber piece where the two pieces connect. The grip is very thin and grippy.I've had a bunch of bats, some I liked more than others bit my favorite all time is an anarchy bat and this feels exactly like that one. The second thing I noticed, after the sick appearance was the weight distribution. It feels great in my hand and over my shoulder.I'm not a very hard hitter and I hit some bombs with it.Overall I think it's worth the 300 bucks considering I paid 270 for my anarchy like 3 years ago and this is even nicer.I added a grip n rip to this bat. Try one if you haven't.Overall an awesome, maybe the best softball bat and an easy 5 stars!(Note: this was a freebie to me via Amazon Vine, but the review is my honest opinion.) There's no softball bat on earth that's going to help me reach the fences; that's just not my game. But there's a nice crisp feel to this bat, and I feel like I get a little more distance out of it. It looks pretty spiffy, too, which, for better or worse, leads a lot of guys on my team to use it. I puzzled for a while over whether it was legal in my league because the dated approval seal, which you can see in one of the images on the product page, if you zoom in, says it was approved via the 2012 standards, and the association is now calling for a 2013-approved bat. I have no idea what the difference is, if there is one, but I compared the bat, once it arrived, to the everyday run-of-the-mill Easton that I've been using for a couple years, and the approval stamps are an exact match. (And it's not on the list of bats that carry seals but are nevertheless banned.) So, it's perfectly legal in my league, which is not particularly permissive about bats. (Your results may vary, of course, but have some confidence!) Overall, I like it a lot!
