DeMarini Flipper OG Slowpitch Bat

This bat is awesome! My wife and I play in a Asa coed league and currently swing a 28oz Miken Freak. I felt the Miken was a little heavy for her and decided to purchase a new bat. After talking to teammates and reading countless reviews we narrowed our choice down to the Flipper. I must say the first time at bp with the new bat, straight out of the wrapper my wife was hitting further distance and the ball was moving much faster coming off the bat. Needless to say I was impressed and decided to give it a shot and help break in the new bat as well. This bat has pop and after a couple rounds of bp I was hitting further than I did with the Miken. And for me the Miken was no slouch and performed very well so I was quite surprised and the more we hit the better the results. The graphics are cool, the bat swings nice, and the sound is amazing when solid contact is made. Both of us are extremely excited for our next game to see what this baby can do.

The .52/300 ball flies off the barrel. I buzzed one past the 3rd baseman before he realized it was passed his ear, hit the pitcher in the leg and he couldn't pitch anymore, then almost hit the shortstop too but he stuck his glove out and snagged it. If you're a big hitter, be safe with the bat if you're in rec-league. The reason I didn't hit any bombs is because we're not allowed to hit more than one if the other team didn't hit one, hence I was working the infielders.As for the bat, you can definitely feel where the sweet spot is (6'' of so) the end feels wobbly as well as the connection to the handle if you hit it there. I really liked the balanced feel of the mid-load too. The grip felt great etc. Only use this for the 52/300 and not the 44/375.UPDATE: I crushed the ball in our championship game...hr over center... I’m talking deeeep. Liner off of left field fence... And laced to LC gap. Bat has crazy pop...

Feels great, we’ll balanced. The hitting area of the bat is solid.

This is the first time I've ever really spent on a new bat, and I have to say I'm a big fan. Lots of hits that felt like I missed it, but still travelled well. Almost the whole team uses it, and everyone has loved it. We had a game a few weeks ago at 50 degrees and it bummed everyone out that it had to stay in the bag.

Great bat! Worth the price

Don't waste your time looking at Miken bats this year, for 2019, the Flipper is the hottest bat.

After a 100 swings I'm not hitting any father than I have before. Cool design. I dont see any difference in how the ball comes off the bat. Bought and paid for so I will keep it.
