Re: Axe Bat
There was actually a softball that built on the same idea...actually, it may have been the same company. Since we were a competitive tournament softball team, we loaded up bats and always tried the latest and greatest.
The design forced your hands to be lined up and swing through the zone in a particular way. The bat wasn't anything special as far as pop was concerned, but there was an issue. You kept pounding the same area of the bat, and considering the bat was aluminum, the bat dented up easily since the same spot was getting hit.
We were swinging an Axe bat at least 10 years ago...and it didn't take off at all. We got sponsored by Miken, when they introduced a composite bat called the Ultra, and composite became the way of the softball world.
