Stay tuned for the end of the video as we compare the Proton to our current favorite 1-piece bat, the Easton FireFlex 240 1-pc

[@davidjoeseph2646]

What's the latest on this bat? Did it break yet?

[@thatguysalbbl3270]

Rocking the GSP sports hat!! Need more hit me up!! LOL

[@Shootsbruh3590]

Fire flex still ropin the ball? Have you tried the 2022 one piece fire flex?

[@BatFlipBP]

Probably not supposed to tell but, just got the request to design the Series Two today 😎 stay tuned!

[@slowpitchbros]

nice!!!!!

[@johnnydarter]

@ Bat Flip BP: Any ASA Proton’s in the works?

[@BatFlipBP]

@@johnnydarter I crossing my fingers for it sooner than later! But I have no concrete info.

[@TBIRD0625]

I bought a Fireflex 240 because of this channel, absolutely love it

[@francisbishop5158]

I have the one piece and love it but I wanna try these protons to see what they are about.

[@fjb-joey-b9836]

I love the rogue chants of this guy shoots videos on KZbin for you its pretty fun

[@jrcotton3483]

I'm surprised one piece bats are making a come back......but I've been a easton guy since the 05 extended and that 2010 salvo....so I'm sold but I'd swing a easton all day

[@brianbanks3044]

Maybe a knob cuff would fix the sharp edge...as for the spider webbing, not a big fan of this happening to a bat...all my bats that did this were hot but only had about 40-50 swings left before they crack...plus a few umps will throw this bat out because they think is is cracked...will stick with my #1 LS Genesis

[@francisbishop5158]

I was thinking the same thing about the knob. Throw a cuff on there and it should be good

[@kdizzler911]

Awesome honest review.

[@Cali_Livin_916]

I use to play B league ball and we had some nice bats at the time, but never anything like what these composite bats nowadays. The composites came out about my last year or so.

[@pepepepert]

I've got a sr Maxim (combat) that is getting close to going. I would be honoured to have you guys send her off to Valhalla.

[@MrCrush08]

Please don't blur out the background. It makes the background look unrealistic. Good video, appreciate the level of integrity.

[@joecottrell3147]

Boombah Canon was the hottest bat ever.. 1 last Canon on ebay for $1500

[@alancobb387]

Cinematic mode!

[@davidjoeseph2646]

My fireflex is nasty. Love that thing. I do prefer the demarini knob wayyyy more than any other bats tho

[@tythegoonie]

Ive got the end load and not only does the barrel feel great.. the knob feels great! Great bat to own if you like cutting the ball.

[@robertmayes1578]

Damn I was hoping you would like it more... maybe series two will be better

[@michaelconnolly8544]

I have been waiting for this video.

[@tattbrad08]

I'd kill to see you guys review some old school bats! So mayhems, mutants, Jeff halls, freaks, freak+, og juggernaut etc...

[@jamestwerdin1189]

Ultra 2

[@kevinburford554]

Thanks for the review

[@ronnyazcona4038]

Great videos!!! please do an old z1000 video.

[@jamestwerdin1189]

Love this channel ❤️

[@fopokev]

Unrelated but it would be cool if you did a video hitting 14" Corker Clinchers.

[@jrhebel8517]

Would like to see you tryout the 270 sick nasty bat

[@mskeezer271]

Any chance you guys can give a review on the Onyx El Jefe for UTrip? Or the ASA NAGAAA Monsta two piece and one piece?

[@mattowens9659]

Everything you said about this bat is how I felt about the Pure NDM1. If I was a guy who cut the ball a lot it would be great but just didn't feel like the ball jumped with my normal swing.

[@ydilemma5192]

how can you tell if a utrip bat is 220 or 240?

[@raider3164]

Should have tried the balanced bat. I have tried bats of the same brand and make. One bat is totally different from the other.

[@mariorosario6829]

Where do I get that hang loose hat 👀👀

[@jaydenmcdonald2468]

Easton 2021 Ronin flex 2 piece you should try it out

[@brianboles1952]

What would you consider hottest bat period for u trip? I want a 1 piece beast

[@Shobanne15]

Used my Brand new Proton for 1 swing and it already webbed and Cracked!! 😒😢

[@garymor3143]

Love that 🤙🏼 hat!

[@ronniecarrasco3922]

Hey slowpitch bat bro what bat would you recommend for a guy that's kind of a beginner? Our fields are 285 USSA or ASA required bats, thanks for your advice

[@yeeolearmadillo1554]

Depends on what balls your hitting. Don't want to hit certain ASA bats with USSSA balls. Pretty much all USSSA bats can hit a ASA ball

[@Shawnthegoat25]

Orange Miken freak psycho. Balanced 14” barrel so lots of forgiveness. I got one for my fiancé and it’s sick

[@ericking9124]

You get that lid in Vegas… cuz I did haha

[@slowpitchbros]

Yessir lol

[@gustavogamboa1653]

Bro i want to buy a Easton hammer slowpitch bat but i dont found any video of it , do you eres tasted it?

[@birdman3675]

Hey man I’m relatively new to slow pitch and was wondering what the best 2 piece bat on the market is? Or if one piece bats are recommended over 2 piece?

[@francisbishop5158]

It’s all preference my man. I have swung one and two pieces and I’m currently swinging the Easton 240 one piece and i absolutely love it. But at the end of the day it’s what you feel comfortable swinging.

[@ChevyRedneckGFX]

If youre an ASA grab a Sinister or Sinister repaint from monsta (1 piece) or the torch/torch juiced 2 pieces are nice. If not monsta then shoot anarchy either 1 or 2 piece from them is good as well

[@birdman3675]

@@ChevyRedneckGFX sweet I’ll check them out, thanks man

[@byobllc]

Can you please review the Easton Ronin one piece

[@daylencrews19]

you guys should test the $44 worth amp from walmart lol

[@mikehendrickson85]

Easton wins yet again

[@basilray]

If you've never listened to a Slowpitch Bat Bro video at quarter speed, you def should. You're going to laugh.

[@slowpitchbros]

😂😂😂

[@basilray]

@@slowpitchbros For real though, I sometimes like to just play it at 1/4 speed and watch your swing. It's pretty

[@kurticebanks8087]

What is the coldest temperature you will hit a bat in? I'm just getting into it and I've bought a few new bats that I don't want to break

[@frostmonkey]

15° C is the warranty limit.

[@kurticebanks8087]

@@frostmonkey I'm not concerned with the warranty. I'm trying to push the limits

[@TeeOffTommy]

Would you choose between the POW and the WHAM what one would you

[@trystenstencil405]

Wham

[@rikvanderwansem9645]

So just to get this straight. Most if not all of these slowpitch bats go below 240 after 1 good BP session. Durability is terrible then, right? I mean I play recreational softball and want a bat that lasts at least 2 seasons. Nonoe of these will make that, correct?

[@davidjoeseph2646]

These guys mash and it still passed after 100 plus swings. Buttt. The demarini nautalai bats will last you multiple sessions with no issues. I have well over 1000 hits on my db44 nautalai with zero issues. Check out the nautalai reviews will did a few months back. Great bats.

[@davidjoeseph2646]

Also if you buy a new nautalai you get a warranty. I dont expect my easton fire flex to last anywhere near as long. Worth bats typically last a long time too if you dont like demarini bats.

[@slowpitchbros]

They don’t drop down in compression linearly, they often plateau at right above the pass/fail line for awhile which makes them last a lot longer than you would think

[@rikvanderwansem9645]

@@slowpitchbros thx, good to know!

[@francisbishop5158]

All these you see coming out now are game ready, where it used to take a BP or two sessions to get it hot. I hardly swing my gamer in BP because of the compression dropping some

[@kidamazing3093]

Swing polar power bat

[@_UpSessions]

Yooo, I live in happy valley. I wanna hit!!

[@christopherdowning3261]

Wondering if you’ve taken any swings with the Anarchy Diabolical??

[@adamneal3005]

Proton is compressing too much. Which will kill the distance making it knuckle more. Usually bats like this are better with cutting the ball.

[@bighaus224]

I'm assuming when you say "feedback" you mean it in a bad way like vibration? But maybe pick a different word if that's what you mean because feedback can be good or bad. Unless you just feel nothing at all when you hit a ball? Haha

[@slowpitchbros]

Either good or bad - there wasn’t a ton of either at first until we got it more broken in

[@michaelconnolly8544]

It is not very good looking though.

[@imabeast7397]

Screw EL. Swing that balanced!

[@NewEnglandSportsNation]

First

[@omarrojas7266]

Please shorting your stride you will smash the ball even farther you already smashing the shit out of the ball but if you just cut your stride a little bit omg the bombs you will hit

[@No-pl6nx]

Like a 3 on the ugly scale
