Freak Black Replacement

Ronnie D Smith · Jun 28, 2016

My 12U DD is currently swinging a 32/22 Freak Black. She loves it. Since we are unable to get anymore of these, anyone have a recommendation for a replacement that swings about the same? She had a CF6, but it was to light/small and we sold it. I hate the idea of only having a single bat since she broke her first FB.

Thanks!

Try EBay to see if you can find a good deal on a used one

Dd has been going to put hers on ebay, only prob is it is 34/24. She never really gave it a chance. I can't remember her ever using it in a game, and maybe a 100 balls in bp. I looked last week on the bay to see what they were selling for, there wasn't any for sale.

I still check ebay. They don't show up very often. Guessing I should have grabbed another from Core before Miken stopped producing them. Figured I would ask around and see if anyone went from a FB back to a different brand.

Thanks!

My DD had the same bat. The 2 Legit in the same size swings very similar. If Demarini, Id suggest trying the Insane in aame aize or move to the 33/23 Hope since thw Demarini's swing lighter. The Insane swings a little heavier than the balanced bats.

I'd go with the Worth 2 legit or the Rawlings Quatro when it comes out.

Player on dd's team replaced her FB with a two piece Combat. Not saying it's the best but that's what she did. Seems to like it so far. 14u.

I agree, DD swings MFB 33/23. The 2 legit swings similarly. She also demo'd the Quatro and said it felt a lot like her MFB.

Thanks for all of the feedback guys. Now to try to find some bats for the DD to try swinging before making a decision.
