Description
COMBAT claims that they simply have the best BBCOR bats on the market today. This is not just a hollow claim either, they back it up with innovative technology and performance enhancing designs. The new COMBAT Classic BBCOR is designed to look, feel, and sound like a wood bat... except its not a wood bat. The Classic BBCOR is 100% composite which gives it more pop, better durability, and a lighter swing weight than most wood bats. This lighter swing weight is due to a lower Moment of Inertia (M.O.I.) which allows players to swing the bat faster and thus generate more power behind their swing. The Classic BBCOR also has two sweet spots, one on the barrel and one at checkout. You simply will not find a better composite BBCOR at this price point. The sweet spot on the barrel is several inches larger than on past bats, because even though BBCOR rules regulate trampoline effect, they do not regulate sweet spot size. So even though your distance on perfect hits may not dramatically increase, the ball will travel much further on inside and outside contact. Dynamic tuning also prevents sting on mishit balls to make the Classic BBCOR one of the most comfortable swinging bats that you'll find on the field today! COMBAT: For Players, By Players! The Classic BBCOR is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

What are the advantages/disadvanteges to using this bat vs. the Combat B3 jtlldl
This bat looks, sounds, and feels like a wood bat. Though it is does have the Low MOI for quicker bat speeds.
Linda
How is the bat weighted...top-heavy or balanced? G
This is a balanced bat.
K.B.
Would this bat be allowed in wooden bat only tourneys? T.O.
No. It is not a wood bat.
K.B.
How does this bat compare to the bbcor tpx omaha? bryan0215
Both of these bats will be good options. You may get a little more power out of the COMBAT.
KG
Is this bat just as good as the over-prices bbcors? collado28
Yes, this is a great bat. COMBAT dominates with their one piece composites. Huge sweet spot, nice balance and excellent pop.
Linda
How does this bat compare performance wise to the RIP IT Prototype? Collado28
The PR14 is a new bat and I have not heard any feedback from customers yet. However, I have hit with both the PR14 and Prototype. The PR14 felt great to swing, but I feel the Prototype offered a little more pop. The Prototype does have a slighlty more end-loaded feel.
TJ
Does this bat perform as well regular BBCOR bats CC
Yes, this will perform similarly to other BBCOR models
Sean
How does the PR14 compare to the new B3? Which one has more pop? marc
I would give the advantage to the B3, because the PR14 is designed to perform like a wood bat. Non-wood bats tend to have more "pop".
K.B.
Can I use it in Babe Ruth this year? devon
Yes, it is legal for ages 13-18.
Kara
Can my son use this bat under the new USSSA 2012 guidelines? It is BBCOR but I just wanted to be sure. Thanks Jason
Yes, all BBCOR bats should be allowed for USSSA play
John
My son is use to using combats, he has to have a bbcor now that the rules have changed. What combat drop 3 series would you reccommend for him? He is a backside contact hitter for the most part. I was looking at all the bbcor combats to see what i could get for the value. He is using b2 drop 5 now and loves it. Thanks mtaylor
This will have pretty good pop for the price. If you are looking for COMBATs top of the line I would take B3 or the 52 Caliber.
Ron
Is its barrels 2 5/8 senior league slugger
Yes. This will have a 2 5/8" barrel.
KG
is this bat legal for middle school use? also, is this bat composite? ray-rod
This bat is legal for use in the middle school division. As long as it has the BBCOR stamp certification, or the USSSA BPF 1.15 stamp, the bat will be legal.
Derek
witch bat will have more pop and be better for a power hitter the combat PR14 or the nike aero M1? tyler
Both the PR14 or the M1 would be great bats for a power hitter. One is alloy and the other is composite but they would both be good choices.
Shelbe
Is it wood? Bigdawg
No. It is just the paint job that gives it a wood-like finish. It is actually 100% composite.
Tyler
Is this bat High School and Collegiate legal? jerry
Yes. It is BBCOR certified and 100% legal for High School and College
Tyler
If you put a clear coat of paint on the bat to prevent chipping would it effect that bats power? John
I wouldn't recommend applying a clear coat of paint to your bat. This will thicken the walls of the bat (maybe not by much) and when you have a bat with thicker walls, performance will decrease.
Tyler
I am a power hitter and don't know whether to pick this bat or the Easton XL3. What bat should I go with? fig5
Both bats are great choices. The main difference between the two is the fact that the XL3 is an all alloy bat and the Classic is a composite bat. The Classic will require a break in, but will get better the more you use it. The XL3 will be hot right out of the wrapper. The XL3 also has an end loaded feel that helps power hitters generate even more power. Since both of them are stiff, one piece bats you can't really go wrong with either!
Jennifer
Is the bat USSSA certified? matt d
The COMBAT Classic BBCOR: PR14 Adult bat is not USSSA certified. This is an adult bat and adult bats will not feature the USSSA stamp.
Jennifer
I'm 5'4 120, would the 31" 28 oz be better for me than the 33" 30? Nick
Based on your height and weight, I would probably suggest going with the 31" 28oz. The 33" 30 oz could possibly be too long for you.
Jennifer
IM 13 AND I AM 5 FEET TALL AND 95 POUNDS IM MORE OF A CONTCT HITTER. I ORDERED THIS BAT IN A 31 INCH. 28 OZ. WOULD THIS BE A GOOD BAT FOR A CONTACT HITTER OR IS THIS BAT MORE FOR A POWER HITTER? JHUBE
The COMBAT Classic PR14 is a great bat for an all-around type of hitter.
Tyler
Is this bats pop above average? Chris
The COMBAT Classic BBCOR has tremendous pop. The ball flies off the barrel.
Nick
What's better this or the 2013 Vexxum? I need a bat but I don't know which one. nick
The COMBAT Classic BBCOR is a one piece full composite bat and the 2013 DeMarini Vexxum is a two piece composite handle and alloy barrel. One piece bats are more suited for power hitters and two piece bats are more suited for contact hitters. Both bats are going to have a lot of pop and great durability.
Nick
I bought the 2012 demarini voodoo last year and i am not completely satisfied with it because of its top heaviness. Is the combat classic bbcor balanced? what are some other balanced bats that you would recommend? chris
The COMBAT Classic PR14 has a balanced swing weight. Other balanced BBCOR bats are the Easton S1, Easton S2, Easton S3 and Rawlings 5150 Velo.
Tyler
What is better? Marucci Black or the COMbat Classic BBCOR PR14? lady slayer!!
The COMBAT Classic PR14 is a one-piece fully composite bat, whereas the Marucci Black is a two-piece hybrid bat (composite handle/aluminum barrel). Either bat would be a fantastic option.
Tom
What are the disadvantages of this bat ? Kise
The COMBAT Classic BBCOR is a little stiff, better for a player with some power. For more reviews, check out our customer feedback section; http://www.justbats.com/reviews/COMBAT-classic-bbcor--pr14-adult/14595/#revpageList
Kara
I am a power hitter but also need a bat that will allow me to have good contact when i need it i don't know weather to get this bat or the Demarini Voodoo? Trevor
That all depends on what type of bat you've used in the past with the most success. If you've previously used a one-piece bat with more success, I recommend the COMBAT PR14. If you've previously used a two-piece bat with more success, I recommend the DeMarini Voodoo.
Tyler
Is this a 2013 model? Eric
The COMBAT Classic BBCOR: PR14 Adult is a 2012 model.
Tyler
Are you able to use this bat in Little League Junior Division? PEREZ
