Who wants to pay $300 for a metal bat that carries a ONE year warranty and will lose all the POP in less than two years?
Slow pitch softball teams by the thousands. In big tournaments you often see every guy on a team use the same bat, and they hardly expect to use it for two years. They all know such bats die sometime soon after their first tournament.
Incidentally, I've seen balls hit by such bats do mid-air antics that I would have thought physically impossible. Maybe a human being can't throw a rising fastball, but there are bats that can hit balls that travel over the third baseman's head before he can get his glove up and then hit the ground 10 feet behind him, and liners over the pitcher that veer 20 degrees to the right and sail over the right center fielder.
