Cons: After about 3,000 swings it got a crack. Fortunately, the warranty wasn't up yet.

Pros: Hottest bat on the market, went to break it in the other day and 12 of 30 swings were over the fence. The other 18 were line drive SHOTS to the outfield. This bat is good for any situation and has more pop than any bat i have swung. At 6'2 210 lbs homeruns come quite often but now this bat almost lets me hit them on command.

Cons: The price is on the high side. (well worth it) The sweet spot is a little smaller than expected but when you hit it the ball should be gone.

i was reading some reviews on this bat, as i am interested in getting it for my u trip league. almost every review states that this is one of the hottest bats available for u trip, but my question is why the low price? was this bat originally $300? curious about the good deal i guess. thanks big B

This bat is very hot! we lower the prices as much, and as often as we can, to keep people happy with our service.

Whats the difference in this bat and the Mv-1?? roach

They are going to be very similar. Personally I think the MV-3 is going to have a little quicker break in period.

John

Does this bat have the new USSSA logo that will be required on bats as of 2013? Roach

Yes, it has the new USSSA logo.

K.B.

What does the "balanced" refer to? D

"Balanced" refers to the way the weight is distributed throughout the bat. If it is balanced, the weight is distributed evenly and it will feel balanced. It if is end loaded, then there will be more weight towards the end of the barrel, making the bat feel top heavy.
