Pros: Love the bat, great balance and pop, wasn't sure about the bell knob, but now would never buy a bat without one.
Cons: Hit a ball on the end and blew out the side, never seen this in all the bats I have used, just a freak thing???
first time wood guy
Pros: My first wood bat and I love it. I like the flared knob.
Cons:
TeamoJr
Pros: Best bat I have ever bought. At first I thought the flared knob would hinder my swing but I was wrong. This bat has wonderful balance and feels very light in the hands. This thing does not break easy either. Had it over two years and it still has a lot of pop. This is by far the only bat for me now.
Cons: None
biggymst
Pros: good pop, solid design and very comfortable handle. its(bottom of handle) a little wider than normal, but very easy to choke up on and have a natural feel...good for those 0-2 counts. will buy more eventually when this one becomes firewood, which will prolly be a while. i have the 33.5 model
Cons: zip zero

Love ir Matthew6 player
Pros: Ball jumped off this bat extremely well. Very nice feel to it. Absolutely loved the knob. Get this bat
Cons: Same thing happened to me as in one off the comments, hit a ball on the end and it blew out the side of the handle.
Kmak
Pros: Great balance. Bonds knob is a great counterweight. I do believe this is more of a contact hitters bat, but a quality bat nonetheless
Cons: Same problem as another person stated, hit ball off end, and blew out the side of the bat. Could happen to any bat I suppose.
Good Bat John Smith player
Pros: I had this bat over 2 years now and it still does me good. It still has a ton of pop and somehow has not broken. It also has an excellent feel.
Cons: The knob might seem a little strange at first, but once you get used to it it feels great.
