The Rawlings SBLMPFU Silverback Plasma Fusion slowpitch softball bat (USSSA) is crafted with a machined-aluminum Fusion-Flex Transmitter that conducts the energy transfer between the 100% composite handle and Liquidmetal® barrel. Upon ball impact, the Transmitter allows the fused Liquidmetal® and carbon fiber to work together to deliver maximum velocity, while blocking vibration.
Got a great deal on the bat, on clearance a few years ago. Was ticked off at first, it was a log. Used in batting practice for 300-500 hits and WOW. Once it got hot everybody used it all year, finally broke late september. Sounds like a gun shot when you hit it when its broke in. I thought it broke every time for a while. People where looking at the bat like what the hell. I've never used the outlawed mikens
but this bat is the best I've ever had. Owned three of them and the 2nd one is hot as hell right now and the 3rd is being brought along. Just got a rush 120, so far it is a tad behind this one but only 300ish hits on it. If you can get a fusion for around $150, you will love it when it's hot.
