Combat Baseball Bat Reviews

Combat (the company) started in 1998 when they began manufacturing softball bats for other brand name companies. ComBat bats were born in the last few years when they decided to put out the same bats they make for other companies in their own name, including baseball bats.

This is the dirty little secret in many industries. The well known manufactures hire an outside company to produce products with their name on it (just like some American cars are really Japanese cars with different name plates. The Chevy Nova comes to mind). I've not been successful finding out the bats they've made for others, but I'm inclined to believe it was for softball bats.

Combat is focused exclusively on composite and hybrid baseball bats. They're priced less than the well known manufacturers; as they should be since they don't have name recognition.

They also have a composite/wood baseball bat (yeah, you heard me right). I'm not going to talk about these since I believe them to be a novelty. History may prove me wrong but no player in high school or college baseball will be using a composite/wood bat anytime soon.

Combat has a limited line-up of baseball bats. They are:

• Combat Virus - One piece, single wall bat with a stiff handle. The Virus has different codes for it's sdult (AB), youth (YB) and senior league (SL) bats. While it's less than the IMX, Triton and CF3 the Virus is not in their league. The Virus competes with the Omaha Comp, and I'd take the Omaha Comp.

• Combat B2 Da Bomb - Would you want the words "Da Bomb" on your bat? One piece, single wall bat with a stiff handle. Only available in youth models. While it's inexpensive (for a composite) I'm not shelling out $245 on "Da Bomb". There are better options out there for the youth player.

A few swear by Combat, but I can't recommend it at the present time. There are just too many unanswered questions. And there's no way a high school or college player will be swinging a Combat bat.
