Questions and Answers

Realistically, how much more distance can I expect out of this bat when compared to my current Easton L3.0? Rob
Overall, I think that both this 2016 Easton Helmer Flex Loaded ASA Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP16BHFXA) and the Easton L3.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP14L3) are going to be very high performing bats. However, this Helmer bat has been made more recently and features composite material that is designed to be higher performing than what was featured on the L3.0. That being said, if you are using the L3.0 and are having success, then I might recommend sticking with that bat for as long as the performance is solid.

Is this a single-wall bat? Dirtywatah
This 2016 Easton Helmer Flex Loaded ASA Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP16BHFXA) has a composite barrel on it and typically composite is not listed as being single -or- multi walled.
