good info

I'd save some money and get an SCN8. Just as hot and durable IMO for about $60-80 cheaper.

I'd say that would be good advice, if he were looking at an SCN3 and not an OG Ext...

that being said, I'd steer clear of the SCX14...

I'd buy a few for $19.42...

Really though, I've never swung a BH, but the ones that I have seen weren't exactly crap. Most of that would be due to an incapable operator...

Had one of those and it broke at the handle before it was even broken in great bat, they sent me a SCN9 as a replacement and it never opened up.

The F98 is now in the for sale section if anybody is interested, let me know.

In that case I'd get a used ASA Recoil ..........and then I'd EAD.

Recoils are good, if all you care about is getting base hits. No life to them at all.

I've got one and I love it. I can go yard with it at any time, mostly on a 320' field.
I was told it was a 2nd batch and that's why it hits so good, who know it works and everybody thinks its shaved when they see our guys hit with it

Base hits with a Recoil?? No life ?????? I thought you were brain damaged before. Now I know you are just plain retarded!! You must be swingin an Easton painted as a Recoil!! And no thanks on the trip to GA!! Can watch the girls swing em here for free!! I dont hate Easton, they are just not great IMHO!! Overpriced and overhyped!! Eastons best product is their bat knob cuff!!

I had an OG Ext and I couldn't hit well with it. I like end loaded bats much better. You may want to consider how well you swing a balanced bat before committing to the OG Ext.

You are officially an idiot or have not swung a broke in Recoil. Just as hot as the OG Eastons iMO. They are not as expensive cause they are still sold in stores and easy to find. If they were not, they'd cost just as much as OG Eastons. They are just as durable as well IMO.
