Won't Last

By Ed from Richboro, PA on 6/6/2007

Pros:

Good Grip, Large Sweet Spot, Well Balanced

Cons:

Cracks easily

Describe Yourself:

youth coach

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

We had 3 Catalyst bats on our LL team. 2 of them cracked - one splitting in half. Despite the feel and pop of the bat, it simply doesn't last. Then the manufacturer balks at providing a new bat after our team sees 2 break. For a [$]+ investment, it's not worth it (both bats were bought < 4 months ago).

This bat has the best power transfer i have seen. The ball comes off the bat like a rocket ship. The weight is a perfect ratio with length allowing the batter to swing level and fast for great power. You can not go wrong with the -13 drop.
