Ghosts Baseball
Pros: great pop and hot out of the wrapper. Hit a homerun in my 1st at bat this weekend
Cons: grip is white and gets dirty easy but that just part of the game
Sammy the Slammer
Pros: My 10yr old has had many bats including combat, by far he loves this bat the best,feels great,well balanced, great pop. He's firing the ball. Used it for TOC's and now All Stars right out of the box. Recently using a -12 but prefers -10. Again he loves this bat and it will keep him batting cleanup.
Cons:

Pros: Just as awesome as the B2! Best confidence available for the money. The ball does and WILL go farther!
Cons: Mine is the only one available for my All Star team to use.
Coach Jimmy
Pros: Great bat and very well balanced. Great pop.
Cons: Does not have the pop of the Easton Stealth XL but neither does any other bat.
caveman
Pros: great bat has a lot of pop and huge sweet spot
Cons: the grip changes colors very easily, but it doesn't effect the bat.
Roid Rage
Pros: Bought this bat for my son recently. The season is over, but we've taken some BP with it. This bat is balanced and swings very light for a -10. Compared to the Techzilla, that he was using, I'd say it has a little less pop, but is more forgiving on mis-hits.
Cons: none
CAVEMAN the 1 and only
Pros: this is a great bat, it is a ball ripping machine.the barrel size is nearly the whole entire bat.
Cons: grip changes color and paint chips easily

Pros: Amaazing bat once you break it in. Extremely long barrel.
Cons:
Alex
Pros: Pop is the best. Can hit the ball very far. Hit numerous homerus. Stiff for power hitters.
Cons: Sting but if you get good batting gloves it won't.
Edwest
Pros: My 11 son is swinging the 31/21oz. This is our first experience with Combat. In years past we have been using the CF3 and last year the CF4. In my opinion there is no comparison. The ball off of the Combat is screaming. My son told me today after we took some swings in the cage that he can't even feel the ball come off the bat. In my opinion there is a 75 to 100 hit break in period. This bat sounds and looks great. Highly recommended!
Cons:

Pros:
Cons: I purchased this bat as a christmas present for my 11 year old. After he hit about 12 baseballs something came loose inside. According to the company its a weight. I have now paid $ 20+ to insure it and ship it back to the company (buyer pays) and have been waiting 3 weeks for a return. So effectively buying a defective bat costs you more money than buying a well made bat. I do not recommend this bat and find the Company's policy of standing behind their product poor.

LilJeter10
Pros: This bat is amazing, I got it in 2011 during all-stars and i got some good rips out of it but wasn't all that pleased. During all-stars i used it a ton in BP, and going into the 2012 season I was thinking maybe the bat was already done. It seems that this bat now has some pop that its never had before. I've hit 4 homeruns and the season is far from over, Im only 5'3; 105lbs and those for homeruns were the first homeruns of my life.
Cons: Zip.

Pros: Great
Cons: O
Baseball Dad
Pros: No Sting ! (My Son Has the Marucci Black and it still Stings) Nice Weight Distribution -10 wt Drop does not feel Heavy After Break in Period Bat Has Very Good Pop (Soft Toss Really did not break it in, after about 120 batting cage hits the bat really started to work. Sounds more like firecracker. Added Easton Power Pad (reduces sting and cushions little hands) and Knobcuff EZ taper (gives bat taper by knob like the Marucci bats) which really helps a youth batter. My 8 yr old daughter loves bats and made all-star traveling team (only girl on team).
Cons: White Grip Gets Dirty Grandfathered thru 2013 for league play due to lack of updated USSSA BPF 1.15 stamp.
