MikenKyle Pearson Freak 23 | Maxload | USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat | 12" Barrel | Multiple Styles

I'll upload a picture when I can. But the Handle grip wasn't the best quality. In the way it was put on and the tape on the top the hold it down, it was sloppy and the tape on top isn't even attached to the bat, more on the grip. But other than that its perfect. Ready in 10-20 swings. Great sound, and Pop! The grip is easy to modify so I'm not too worried about it, you know? Just for the pricing I was hoping everything to be perfect haha.

I love this bat. Broke it in properly at the batting cages with 120 balls rotating 1/4 turn each ball. Used it in game Friday night and no home run yet but went 5 for 5 with hard hits.

Bat is super hot and took no time to break in!

Grabbed out of the box to my softball game. First test swing on deck the bat cracked in half, never seen a ball or hit anything. And now I can’t return it. Garbage waste of money.

My softball team has a few bats we let rotate for players. I bought a 2022 Freak Primo, 26oz this year (the purple bat with orange lettering). It's a good bat but I've noticed that I've struggled to make contact as I use the bat more. I think more of that is definitely on me because I have hit bombs with it (300+ foot homers, none of that shortened fence bomb stuff). Some of the issue was my timing but I decided to do some light toe taps to stop me from swinging earlier and hard pulling balls and also switched to this bat and slightly slow my initiation of my swing. Dang... I went 0/3 first game of a double header with the Primo and went 5/5 with the KP23. Again, your swing mechanics matter more than the bat, but I absolutely murdered some hits. I didn't clear the net (we were on a 280' field with 30' nets to require homers to be over 300' to be legit). I was hitting the fence with authority. One ball I hit had so much spin it went from left-center to the left line between the SS and outfielder. If I was a faster runner it would have been a standup triple. Anyways, I used a KP23 bat (highlighter yellow down the barrel) I think in 2017 or 2018 and I loved that bat too. I think maybe I need to just move to KP barrels - that's 2 totally different years where I had some immediate success with the bat. It's also likely the heavier end-load was a factor that benefits my swing.TLDR? This is a good bat. Mine I swung was already warmed up (had at least 300 cuts on it).

Taped over grip and made knob thicker, bat is hot out of the wrapper. Definitely worth every penny, it was my first bat I ever bought and I am very pleased with this. Hit the hardest ball and longest homerun I've ever hit with this bat! 34/27

Lots of sweet hits but lots if mishits too.. still breaking it in .. onlt 250 swings.. But, going to be looking for another bat..

Excelente balance, con un buen contacto la bola viaja, te permite un agarre eficiente, excelente para practicar softball
