Miken Recoil 180 Balanced
[MSRFA]

We tested the Miken RECOIL ASA model on 5-19-2007. We tested a 28oz model on a 300 ft. field. The temp. was about 75 degrees and there was a slight wind blowing out to left center. We used a mix of Miken NRG 375 & 525 compression softballs. The bat was a little bit tight out of the wrapper like most ASA bats but started to really lossen up after 60 - 70 hits. Once it did break in it was a really impressive bat. I'd say it outhits the Freak 98 & NRG 500 easily. This is Miken's best ASA produced bat since the original Freak. The line drives were hard and the bat had no problem hitting the ball out at 300 feet. The sweet spot is enormous and is the #1 feature to this bat. It has a 14.5 inch barrel with over half of that being sweet spot. The Miken RECOIL ASA model is without a doubt a top performer for ASA play and it also hit the low compession balls extremely well.
