Definitely go Combat. One of the best bats out there. We purchase ours at CombatsONline.com If you know them or have purchased from them before then you can get 15% off of the maxum. They also have all previous models discounted. If you want the best bat then Dirty South Bats which are made in Georgia. Composite 2 5/8 bat with tons of pop. They are starting to get a large grass roots following. Their sister companies manufacture race cars, road cars and other neat businesses. I never purchased a bat from a real estate company before (corporate office), but we are certainly glad that we did.
