Axe Avenge 2022

Anyone have any experience with this. I’ve heard some hype but not sure if I trust the source. They do have a 30 day satisfaction guarantee but not convinced enough to take the plunge.
DD’s Advanced is 1 1/2 years old and while she have a good backup bat she’s always interested in new gear. She’s kind of a gear head like me. My vices are golf clubs and camera gear.

It is very comfortable to swing due to the design of the handle. There is very little pressure on the smaller fingers towards the end of the bat. The theory is it allows you to grip the bat lighter than you would with a traditional bat while maintaining control and better hand angle.

I have not used the Fastpitch bat, but I have swung the baseball version, and I liked the feel a lot. The bat had what you might call an ergonomic feel to me. Does it have the same pop? That's a great question. I was just looking at them today on my store's website and thinking about ordering one to have my daughters try it out.

If you decide to try one, PM me for a price you'll like.

your DD will either really like or really hate the handle. I personally always questioned performance when you are basically forced to impact the ball with same side of the bat all the time due to handle orientation. No rotating bat to get all sides impacts.

I don't worry durability. There are engineering advantages to knowing where the impact is going to come from. Same material weight but you only need to re-enforce one side. I just don't think the handle will make this bat a viable back up. It is different and will probably need to get used to. Not the type of thing that you go back and forth easily.

I had a slowpitch one that Axe wanted me to demo and it was average at best. Def did not perform like other bats.
