Light Bat

GREAT BAT FOR WIFFLE BALLS. TOO LIGHT TO USE FOR HEAVY BALLS.

Snapped In Half After 4th Contact. Do Not Buy

Bought the 28” for my average sized 7 year old after months of him asking for it. Within 5 minutes of unwrapping it and on his 4th contact, it snapped completely in two. He didn’t catch any of them low or on the handle that would be a weak spot. Completely disappointed in this bat and DSGs bat policy on what is clearly junk or a defective piece of equipment. Most likely my last time buying a bat from them.

Good Bat But Not For Us

Purchased this bat back in april and it was a good buy overall. the only downfall was that after purchasing it we found out that it was a bit too small. upon bringing it back to the store, we were unable to return it because it wasn't still in the plastic that it came in. That sucked! I had bought it the day before and of course we needed to take the plastico ff to try it out. I guess I'm just stuck with it.

Broke

Son loved it off the tee, but when he used it. The bat broke after about 15 swings.

Poor Quality

My 9 year old used this at a batting cage. It broke in half the first time he hit a ball. They were soft rubber balls too. Would never have survived a real baseball.

Breaks Easy

Bought this bat last minute for a wood bat tourny. In store selection for youth wood bats wasn't great. Bat felt light for wood and well balanced. It just felt cheap holding it. It lasted under 20 hits when it broke. Bat is only good for wiffle balls

Nice

I bought this for my sisters son. He likes it better than a steal bat.

Good Bat

Good wooden bat. Light to swing, only used it a few times so far. Hasn’t cracked yet.

Poorly Made

Bought this bat and I pitched to my son. Around the 15th pitch, it broke just like the other reviews said it would do. My son’s teammate also bought the same bat and it broke with only a few pitches also.

Garbage

Bought 2 of them and both busted. Had about 14 at bats between the two bats.

Broke On First Day :(

Cheap Bat

Didn’t survive through 1 being practice for a 10 year old.

Terrible

My 11 year old son bought this for a wood bat tournament. Broke on the 3rd swing in the cage warming up for game... never buy a youth model again. At least not one that light.
