| Jan. 18, 2023 big cat7 Men's 50 138 posts | wig popper With all the hype about the wig popper and senior softball bat reviews having it number one i looked into getting one and they are having pre orders now for febuary shipping date which means those might be second run bats.If super dave sees this will you be doing another review on the second run bats? |
| Jan. 18, 2023 outtashape3 Men's 60 17 posts | Just got mine delivered today. Going to be a while before I can try it out outside. To cold in Missouri now. Hopefully they live up to the hype. |
| Jan. 18, 2023 JohnO28 Men's 50 36 posts | Big Cat, In Dave's revies he made it clear that they some of the bats they were hitting in the second(final review) that some of the bats they were hitting were from the second batch. |
| Jan. 18, 2023 Squidlius Men's 60 1 posts | I ordered mine. I hope it's as hot as the ones Dave has. I got a 2023 Ultra Fusion Big Cat based on his reviews and it's been pretty good. I'm looking forward to trying a short barreled bat. |
| Jan. 22, 2023 bkb555 298 posts | they are on the 4th or 5th batch now...I got one of the first batches way back in early oct which may have even been a 2nd run |
| March 14, 2023 JamesLG 419 posts | Hi All: So now that this bat has been out for a while are they good performing bats? I have only seen one used one for sale so that is usually a positive sign. Thank You: James |

| March 16, 2023 Scott Harder Men's 55 36 posts | This is a great bat if you like a one-piece that swings like a Dudley. I'm just a dumb softball guy with no talent, but it seems to me to be more helpful for those with less than the strongest swing. I have watched other use it and that's my assessment. If you slow it down and just concentrate on contacting the ball, you may like it. I had two of these bats, wound up giving them away. It's very hot but fragile, had less than 50 swings on the first one and it broke (in Florida so temps weren't the problem). When you hit it square you won't be disappointed it's as hot as any bat available. I normally hit a 30oz or 29.5oz Diamond and really had a hard time squaring it up because the heaviest they make is 28oz. Having a bat you can hit good would be better than one that's hot but not fit for your swing. For me, I gave up on it. I'm not looking forward to playing defense against it!! And really, any senior bat is good enough to get hits with. |
| March 16, 2023 Scott Harder Men's 55 36 posts | Upon further consideration and watching the video I would not recommend it for anyone under 60, unless you like buying replacements or are considered as a table setter. |
| March 17, 2023 chikn55 Men's 60 25 posts | I’ve been using the Wig Popper and several other Cellblock bats since they came out last summer. The Wig Poppers speed thru the infield is about the best I’ve seen. I have about 400 swings on mine and I’m actually trying to break it. i have a tendency to break bats because i hit the ball very flush. So far it’s holding up. Another bat for the hard hitting player is their new DaBomb signature bat. Chikn |
| March 20, 2023 AxSlash 1 posts | I bought the 28oz Wig. Found to have problems with 12” barrels so I also bought 12.5” barrel 28 oz Short Porch Dabomb. Still getting used to it as I play year round senior league in Florida. Also bought & breaking in the California Bat Co Little Mexican. Between Short Porch & Calif Bats, the Little Mexican is working out the best in BP. New to Senior League Softball, I never owned 1 pc seniors until now as my gamer is still 28 oz Louisville Genesis Griffey. One piece 220’s (1.21) are viewed as hot while 2 piece bats (1.20) 240’s are viewed as restricted (less hot) by most players. Matter of fact, we have another “Restricted Bat League” and the 1.20 two piece bats are legal. I’m shaking my head as I’m still hitting better with my LS 240 Griffey. Thoughts? |
| March 20, 2023 Vet Men's 60 19 posts | I have one of the 1st batch Wig Popper. Breaks in fast. Got about 100 swings on it. The ball jumps off it well. The sound it makes is like the OG Dudley lightning. It's the real deal. |
