Description
The team at COMBAT said that "something big" was in the works. But the bat that emerged has pushed through the boundaries of what was even considered possible with a composite bat design! Introducing: the new COMBAT MAXUM! COMBAT has made a name for themselves in the bat industry by consistently delivering bats that offer an extreme combination of a light swing weight and HUGE sweet spot, but the MAXUM takes the crown in both categories. This COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 provides not only the largest sweet spot in the industry offered in a Youth (2 1/4") model, but it totes the lightest swing weight (by a full ounce) of any COMBAT Youth model ever! These bats are one-piece composite designs created through advanced Precision Molding Technology (PMT). Unlike typical composite bats that are created by rolling/overlapping layers of material, the PMT process injects liquid resin into seamless high-quality carbon sleeves under extreme pressure. The result is an ultra-consistent product that eliminates seams/weak points that you get with the traditional process. That means that players can rest-assured that the MAXUM will deliver perfectly tuned performance over a longer lifespan. COMBAT is so sure of this ground-breaking design, they're backing each MAXUM model with a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. The MAXYB110 carries the USSSA BPF 1.15 Certification mark on its taper and is approved for play in Little League Baseball, USSSA, Dixie, Pony, AABC, and Babe Ruth. COMBAT: Measure Up to MAXUM!

How does this compare to the Portent? Is it the same composite material that is used in the Portent? Scott
The 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) will have a lighter swing weight and a bigger sweet spot than the COMBAT Portent Youth Baseball Bat (PORYB110). The composite material will be slightly upgraded to allow for these design features.
Patrick
Does the -10 have larger sweet spot than the -12 Maxum? joe
The 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) will have a slight longer barrel compared to the -12 MAXUM Youth model.
John
What is the break in period for this bat? poo
To break in the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) you will need to hit 150-200 swings off of a tee rotating 1/4 of an inch on each swing.
Frankie
Does the Youth Combat Maxum have a bigger sweet spot than the Youth Easton Mako? Also, are the composite materials similar? Pops
The composite material on the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) and the 2015 Easton MAKO XL Youth Baseball Bat (YB15MKX) would be very comparable. The barrel size is also very similar. They bath have extended barrels for an extra large sweet spot. They are too close in size to determine which one may be slightly larger. The major difference between the two would be the one-piece verse two piece design.
Patrick
Is this bat getting more ''pop'' than the Mako? In my opinion ''none of the bats are the same'' there's always one that has an edge. tiebreaker
"Pop" is more of a term that refers to the skill of the player rather than a measurable feature of the bat. In reality, bats that are rated to the same 1.15 BPF standard will all perform to the same peak level at their best. What you should be looking for is design features that set the bats apart. For example; feel of the bat (one-piece versus two-piece, balanced versus end-loaded, amount of flex or sting prevention, etc) and durability. Durability will determine how long that bat lasts at its peak level. Both the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) and the 2015 Easton MAKO Senior League Baseball Bat (SL15MK9) are both great options. The MAKO will provide a bit more flex for increased bat speed and sting prevention while the MAXUM allows for more control of the bat and a slightly more extended barrel for a bit larger sweet spot.
Patrick
Compare the Marucci Hex Composite to the Combat Maxum -10. What are the pros and cons for each bat? dad looking
The main difference between these two is the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) has a larger sweet spot with a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee. Also, the MAXUM is a one piece bat vs. the two-piece construction of the Hex.
Chinyere
A rep from Combat just advised me that the Combat Maxum is ready to go out of the package without any break in period. Is this true? Griz
The advanced composite construction of the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) does not necessarily require a break-in process to be game ready but may see added benefit from a short round of soft toss while rotating the barrel to get it performing to expected levels.
Patrick
My son is 49 inches and weighs about 54 pounds. What would be the right bat size in the COMBAT Little League bat? E
Based on his height and weight, we suggest a 30" model in the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110).
Jason
My son is 9 yrs, and is 4'6" at 78 lbs. What size Combat MAXUM should he use? We currently have the 2015 Mako XL 30/20, but it just seems a bit heavy. He's had a home run with it and some awesome hits, but since moving up to it, his number of quality hits are few and far between. etcket
Based on your son's height and weight, we would recommend getting the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 in a 29 inch 19 ounce model.
Cameron
My son is 8 years old this Saturday. He is 44" and 48 lbs. Is the 27/17 the correct size and weight? Waldemar
Based on his height and weight, we suggest a 27" 17 oz version of the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110.
Jason
My son is 8 years old, 50" tall and weighs about 78 lbs. What bat length should I get him? Davgar
Based on your son's height and weight, I would recommend that he swing a 30" bat.
Nick
My son is 11 yrs old, is 5'1" and weighs about 115 lbs. What size and length of bat should I get? Davgar
Based on your son's height and weight, I would recommend the he swing a 31" bat. The 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 features a -10 length to weight ratio, so this bat in a 31" length will feature a 21 oz. weight.
Nick
My son is 7 years old. He is 49" tall and weighs about 60 lbs. What bat length should I get him? IFisch
Based on your son's height and weight, we would recommend getting the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 in a 28 inch 18 ounce model.
Cameron
I purchased the Combat DaBomb but it was outlawed before he broke it in. Which bat has comparable pop or even exceeds it? He is 9 yrs old and weighs about 80 lbs. He was crushing the ball with that bat before they took it away, now he struggles with his DeMarini CF6. Jeff
The bats that will be comparable to the COMBAT B2 Composite Youth Baseball Bat: B2YB1 -12 in terms of performance would be the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 and the 2016 Easton MAKO Youth Baseball Bat: YB16MK11, with the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 being the closest (as this bat also features the one-piece composite design).
Cameron
I was told my kid, who is playing 9U travel and rec ball, can use a composite bat in rec league as long as it's stamped BBCOR. I just sent a message to a Combat representative about this bat and he said that bats stamped BBCOR are for high school and up. Could someone help me with this? Bill
Typically BBCOR bats are used in high school and collegiate play. All BBCOR bats have a -3 length to weight ratio. If your son's league allows BBCOR composite bats then he can certainly use one, however it will be very heavy for a 9 year old and he will have trouble getting the bat around.
Angelique
My son is 9 years old, 55" tall and weighs about 115 lbs. He has a pretty quick swing. Would you recommend the 2016 Combat Maxum (-10) or 2016 Combat Maxum (-12)? fred
Based upon your player's height and weight, we would recommend going with a 30" option of a Youth bat (2 1/4" barrel diameter). I would make a recommendation based upon the weight that your player can handle. If you feel that the 20 oz weight of the 30" option of this 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) will be best, then get this bat in that size. However, if 18 oz will be better for your player, be sure and get the 30" option of the MAXUM (-12).
Ben
What does the "30 no risk guarantee" cover? frosty
If for any reason you are not satisfied with the performance of the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 within 30 days, you are able to send it back to us for either a full refund or exchange.
Marcus
Trying to decide between a -10 and -12. My son is 11 and pretty tiny, but his hands are quick. He's been using a teammate's -12 (over his Vexxum) and doing well. I think this MAXUM is even more balanced than the Vexxum. Does the -10 MAXUM have the same balance point as the -12 MAXUM? Nicole C
This -10 model and the -12 will both be very comparable in their balanced feel. If your son is doing well with a -12 and you want the model that he will be able to use best at this current time period, I would recommend going with the -12 option of the MAXUM. However, if you want a model into which he will be able to grow as he gets older, I would recommend getting an option of this 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110).
Ben
My son is 6, 47" with cleats and 62 lbs. Currently swings a 26/14 2015 model MAKO. He's going to coach pitch this fall and I am being told he should be swinging a 28" bat. Do you recommend the -12 MAXUM and if so, what length? LSG
Our bat coach says that somebody with the height and weigh you described typically swings a 27" bat, but you could definitely go up to a 28" bat if you preferred. The 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -12 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB112) in a 27" 15 oz would be a great option for your son.
Carter
My son is 4'5" and weighs about 65 lbs. I am torn between picking up the 29 or 30 inch bat for him. What does your bat expert think? Silas
Based on your son's height and weight, we would recommend getting the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 in a 29 inch 19 ounce model. This bat features a very balanced swing weight as well as a 30 day guarantee so if you decided to go with the longer bat (30 inches) you could certainly do that and if it wasn't the correct fit you could always send it back for the shorter bat within 30 days of your purchase date.
Cameron
My new combat MAXUM after a week of use has a crack that is like a v pattern on it is this normal and a part of the break-in process? Broball42
It is not uncommon to see smaller hairline cracking in composite bats like the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110). It generally means the composite materials are expanding and the bat is becoming hotter.
Jake
My 12 year old son is 6'0", 185 lbs and getting ready to play in a Little League tournament. He had success with a 31"/23 oz in a big barrel during the off-season. What's the recommendation for a 2 1/4" bat? AwesomeBaseballMom
My recommendation would be to get 2 1/4" barrel bat in the longest 32" length and get a model with a -10 length-to-weight ratio. Unfortunately, the largest option available of this 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) would be the 31"/21 oz size. Another option I would recommend viewing is the 2016 COMBAT Portent G4 Youth Baseball Bat (PG4YB110) which is available in the 32"/22 oz size.
Ben
I saw a question about a 30 day no risk guarantee on this bat. Is that still available? L
Unfortunately, the 2016 line of MAXUMS no longer feature the 30 day trial period from JustBats or COMBAT. Therefore, this 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) no longer features a 30 day no trial period on it. However, if you were interested, the new 2017 line of COMBAT MAXUMs do feature the 30 Day trial period.
Ben
How does the COMBAT MAXUM relate to the Easton MAKO XL in terms of feel? EBC123
The two bats will offer a different feel. The 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 offers a balanced feel (evenly weighted) while the Easton MAKO XL offers and end loaded feel (end weighted).
Marcus
Is this bat considered a 'big barrel' bat? JP
This 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) will feature a 2 1/4" barrel diameter and won't be considered a big barrel baseball bat (big barrel bats have a 2 5/8" or 2 3/4" barrel).
Ben
As mentioned this is a more balanced and Mako is more end loaded. What are advantages of each more power vs contact? My son is 11 about 85 lbs. He currently is using DeMarini CF7. Nick R
Both the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) and the Easton Mako are actually both balanced bats. The Mako XL is an end loaded bat. Here is a good link that really explains the pros and cons of balanced and end loaded bats - http://blog.justbats.com/bats-balanced-versus-end-loaded
Carter
Does this have a similar feel to the 2016 Combat Portent G4 youth bat (-10)? It seems like the Maxum is an upgrade, but I'd be looking for a light, balanced feel like the Portent has. Damian
The 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 has a lighter swing weight than the 2016 COMBAT Portent G4 Youth Baseball Bat: PG4YB110, but other than that, they are very comparable bats.
Logan
I am 13, 5'10" and 135 pounds. What length should I use? joe
We would recommend getting the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 in a 33''.
Tori
I am 12 yrs old, 58.5 inches and weigh 107 lbs. What Little League Combat bat is best for me? Evan
I would recommend the 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110, but the 32" 22oz size that we have available may be a bit big for you. You might want to consider the
2016 COMBAT Portent G4 Youth Baseball Bat: PG4YB110 in a 30" or 31" size.
Logan
My son is 9. He has above average size and weight, but is an average hitter and needs to focus on swing speed. He is swinging an Easton S3 Series (29"/16 oz). How would this compare? Brent
If you feel that your player can step up to a Youth bat (2 1/4" barrel) with a -10 length-to-weight ratio, then this 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat (MAXYB110) would certainly be a bat to consider. Unfortunately, for our stock of this MAXYB110, we would only have the 32"/22 oz size available in stock. I might suggest first looking to a bat with a -11 or -12 length-to-weight ratio on it and a 30" length.
Ben
Is there a break in period with this bat or is it ready to go out of the package? Tim
The 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 is a composite bat and will need to a break in period before it is game ready. We recommend 150-250 swings off a tee of soft toss at about 60% of max swing effort. After each swing one will need to rotate the barrel a 1/4 turn.
Cameron
My son is eight years old, is 54" tall and 76 lbs. Is 30/20 the right size for him? Pat
The 2016 COMBAT MAXUM -10 Youth Baseball Bat: MAXYB110 in a 30'' 20 oz. is the right size for him. If he is struggling to get the barrel around the 29'' 19 oz.
