    Quatros are IN !!

    The Quatro. She worked with it all week between soft toss and a tee so she would feel that it was game ready. I do want to state that she didn't know that the Rawlings was the Miken / Worth replacement. I asked her to try it out and she loved the "feel". She hated the CF8 insane and the 2016...

    Quatros are IN !!

    Update. Daughter hasn't had a home run since her Miken broke in the spring, she's come close with the Xeno, but hit 2 today. Might be confidence thing since I forced the Xeno on her but she loves this bat.

    Quatros are IN !!

    My daughter (16 years old) had the Miken Black which became her favorite bat. After she broke it (6 months after the warranty expired) I replaced it with a Xeno Plus. She used it but often complained that she liked her Miken better. We picked up a 2016 Mako real cheap but she absolutely hated...

    2016 Mako sounds dead

    My daughter got a 2016 Mako to replace her Miken FB. After using it for a while she says it just doesn't feel right. It has a real dud sounding noise towards the end and lots of vibration when checking it with a ball. Is this normal for this bat? I checked it against her Miken and I do feel a...

    2016 Stealth

    Is the 2016 Easton Stealth a real copy of the old stealth or a dressed up FS1? Trying to find out quickly so I can get one if it is the real thing.

    Anderson bats/new rockettech

    Since we are talking Rocketechs I picked up a 2011 with no dents to add to Daughters 2014 Rocketech. The 2014 was a 34/25 but weighed 27 onces. Was 2011 a good year for Rocketechs?

    Worth or Easton Dealers

    I have dealt with Core and have had a great experience and service from him. With Miken getting out of the game and my daughter doesn't like LS bats, where can I get a great deal on a new Mako or 2Legit? I am not ready to replace her Miken but want to know who to deal with when the time comes.

    Will there be a new Freak Black?

    Will Miken release a new Freak Black? My daughter loves her current Freak, even put her Mako down for one but after a high school season and travel ball season it's showing alot of wear. What is comparable to the Freak? Is the 2legit similar or should I push her back to Easton if Miken is...

    Freak Black

    The bat has been great so far, 2 doubles at the fence last night. The problem now is before the game she said she heard something in the bat and sure enough if you tip it you can hear something rolling around in it. I checked the outside and all was fine and let her use it for the game. Is it...

    Freak Black

    We were an early adapter to the Black. Thank you Core and please put me on the list for the next model of the Black.

    Miken Freak Black

    My daughter quit using her beloved Mako, and has been exclusively using her Freak Black. Hit her first home run with it today over the center field fence. When I first bought she wouldn't touch it because she said she was an Easton girl. Made her take batting practice with it ,now she loves...

    Dealing with CoreSoftball20

    2016 freak black

    I am hearing a lot of good things about the 2016 Freak Black fastpitch bat. Would love to hear what Core and everybody else thinks.

    Worth 2 legit owners

    Alright 2 Legit owners, come clean and give us your end of the season review. Did the bat hold up? I really want to pick one up when the prices drop for the 2015 model.

    2014 Anderson Rocketech -9 33/24

    Daughter likes working with it on the tee and says she will use it for slower pitchers. By the way Closeout bats it had for under 130 today. I picked it up for 119 a few weeks ago.
