Which composite fastpitch softball bat is the best?
I was looking at the DeMarini CF3, the DeMarini Phenix, and the Anderson Rocketech. Which one of those bats has the best feel and performance. Also, any pros and cons on any of these bats? If you know another good composite bat, please tell me! Thanks!
Out of those, I would go with one of the DeMarinis because I have never heard of Anderson Rocketech. DeMarini bats are typically a good choice.
Another option that a lot of people I know have is the Louisville Slugger Catalyst. My coach always speaks highly of them, and they do have a lot of pop to them. The only problem is that they are pretty expensive.

Which bat should I get ?
I am a 13 year old girl who plays travel fast pitch softball. I am 5'4 and around 120, mostly muscle. I am in need of a new bat. I am currently swinging a 32/21 Louisville Slugger Jessica Mendoza which is too light for my size. My batting coach, who is an assistant softball coach at SLU in Louisiana, recommended that I get a new bat. I have a choice between two bats.
1) 2009 ComBAT Morphed Virus- http://www.justbats.com/product.view.asp...
or
2) the new ComBAT Lisa Fernandez- https://www.worldstarsoftballshop.com/pr...
We can get the prices on both bats for about the same amount. A problem I run into is that the Virus will get here sometime next week and the Lisa Fernandez wouldn't get here until the following week. I have a tournament next weekend. I have a bat I can use to that tournament though. Which bat would be better to buy? Are they worth the wait?
i always get catalyst becuse it is one piece and composite, i use 32"/22 oz and i am 145-150 all muscle (serioulsy my teammates jokingly accuse me of steriods) im not fat either my stomach is pretty much flat... anyways go with a TPS bat or an anderson Rocket tech- these have the most pop to them.
i choose catalyst and you cant need a much bigger bat.
