2019 Adidas Red 2pc endload Melee durability...
Looking for some info on durability..how many swings are you getting out of this bat, in particular from big hitters?

Thanks

I have been hitting mine for 3rd season. I have pretty fair power. I also have a back up and a 3rd bat still in wrapper. I would say the Tourny Gamer has 1500 swings and the back up has at least 300. I have had NO Durability problems

DRB - the answer to your question is mostly dependent on how hard you hit the ball. I went thru a red melee in less than 200 swings. But it may have been a bad one. I had better success with the lime green end loaded version - close to 1,000 swings. I know guys who get 3-4 years out of the bat because they don't tend to hit it as hard as other people do. Overall, my opinion is once they get broken in, you have to be careful. Don't use them for BP would be my recomendation.

I agree with NYTX, once you break it in just keep it as a gamer and be careful with it. We have one person on our team that hits it as hard as anyone and he seems to get about 400-500 swings on his. We both use a 28.5 oz though. Not sure if the heavier bats are more durable.
