It is a mizuno "Beyond Max"

It is not one the bats shown there but comes out of the "Buw League" Series.

I need to know if it would be legal under ISF rules, but further information about it's composure and it's legal status for ASA play might be helpful.
I don't need an information about the available lists, but hints why it would be legal or illegal.

Has anyone seen a bat like that before?

Thanks for your help!

Below is the ASA Certified Equipment site and the two acceptable ASA bat certification marks.

Amateur Softball Association of America






If the bat does not have one of these stamps, and I don't believe it does, it is not approved for use in ASA.

This is a list of Mizuno bats approved for ISF play:
