B bomber from pa
Pros: my son loved the B2 and is moving up to 13u this fall. first hit went 300' followed by many more bombs. Great bat with awesome pop
Cons: just the paint chipping but none on performance
Dillon
Pros: Sick feel. Ball jumps off bat and moves very quick through zone. Went 10-14 in my first 4 games last weekend. 2HR 1 triple 3 doubles and 4 singles.
Cons: none...maybe the color:)
Blue Demon
Pros: Large sweetspot, amazingly live bat right out of the wrapper, drop 10 was a must for my 75lb. 10-year old who almost hit his 1st home run with the first swing he put on a ball in a game after getting the bat, super anxious to see how "live" this bat gets once broken in
Cons: White grip (already dirt/batting glove stained) - might as well have gone with black, some would say the color but our travel team is "Caroline Blue" so it actually works for us
Jcfiveo
Pros: This bat has a huge sweet spot and is hot right out of the wrapper. My son has hit 3 home runs in 3 weeks. He's never complained about hand sting even on balls hit off the handle. Another kid on our team has this bat and is also having great results. I don't regret this purchase.
Cons: None.
Mo
Pros: great bat, balance, balls are shooting off bat, breaking in during fall season, but already has great pop, can't wait for spring.
Cons: white tape on bat, it went from white to brown after two games.
SAP
Pros: Gets the attention a great bat should, okay pop when ball is hit right on the sweet spot.
Cons: ball tends to pop up or down 7/10 time, must hit right on for line drives. I sent it back to combat for eval. they stated bat was performing up to standards unfortunately our less expensive bats are out performing it Ex. v12, rival,surge,worth prodigy,& Omaha.Asked combat personnel if bat would get better with break in, the said no. as per combat, bats can't increase their performance with break in due to new USSSA safety rules. really wanted this bat to work for us but not the case (28/18) used by 7/8 year olds.
DoubleHitter
Pros: The Combat B3 is a really good bat. Very good action, huge sweet spot and doesn't dent like the 2011 Rival. It is very balanced. Combat B3> S3> Rival.
Cons: Doesn't sound as good as the rival, but has better action then the rival honestly.
Billy
Pros: This bat is the BOMB!! I hit 3 home runs before I took it out of the wrapper!
Cons:
Chachi
Pros: Fairly hot right out of the box. The more I hit with it the hotter it has gotten. Love the sound. No hand sting no matter where ball is hit. Great bat!
Cons: Needs a more masculine color!
Matt
Pros: Somewhat good pop hit pretty good with it
Cons: Cracked after hitting 50 pitches. Do not recommend this bat
Memphis
Pros: This bat is hotter then the worth lithium bigger sweet spot and a stronger hitter will hit it much farther.
Cons: None
BOO
Pros: Great bat. Lots of pop. Ball flies off it. When pitchers see someone with this bat they know the guy can hit.
Cons: The color
JR
Pros: Very hot bat. Seems to come off bat strong compared to Demarini Vodoo, SV12 and the Exogrid my son has as well as others bats we have used. Has a different sound but so far great bat.
Cons: None so far.
Big D
Pros: First tourny with new bat. 11U Son crushed the ball. No home runs, but longest bombs of his career. Bat made a big difference, and is quickly becoming team bat.
Cons: None so far.
Bixbythunder
Pros: Very great pop off the ball. Love the bat. If you hit it in the sweet spot the ball goes soaring in the outfield.
Cons: None
Ryan k.
Pros: Pop
Cons: None
John
Pros: Very nice bat. Switched teams and was scared to use it in first tournament,but i did and went 11 for 14 with 4 doubles and the rest singles but I'm a 2 hole kind of hitter so was surpised with the amount of power.
Cons: zero
#9 Va. Diamondbacks

Va Diamondbacks #9
Pros: Great pop right out of the box. bat has awesome feel and balanced well. This bat comes highly recommended!!!
Cons: playing defense against this bat in a power hitters hands...
Power Hitter
Pros: Great pop, well balanced
Cons: Cracks easily, especially for older kids who swing harder and face hard pitching. My son's cracked literally the second day he had it. Several boys on our team have this bat and out of about 8 bats, 5 have cracked. Combat is good about replacing them, but why go through that hassle. I do not recommend.
dustym
Pros: My son loved this bat. Hit several doubles...
Cons: Cracked after two tournaments. Having to pay to ship it back and get another.
Chico
Pros: The ball does hit well off this bat.
Cons: Within the first week of the season, the bat cracked.
ou812
Pros: Bat should be classify as a weapon. U12 teams hitting 300 plus feet. Kids size avg 5.6 about 120 lbs,
Cons: Bat cracks in cold weather. Has less pop in cold weather compare to warm weather. If bat didn't crack so easy It would be a 5 out of 5

jt
Pros: Bat has great pop, sounds a little funny. My son loves the fell of the grip
