2007 Worth Jeff Hall M798 Bat Review

The 2007 Worth Jeff Hall M798 softball bat is consistently one of the highest rated bats for ASA play. With the ASA banning all grandfathered 100 MPH bats in 2008, the Jeff Hall M798 is commonly thought to be the closest thing to the 100 MPH bats.

It is a 100% composite, half-ounce endloaded bat. If you like balanced bats, this may not be the bat for you. If you like endloaded bats and play ASA, the consensus is this is the right bat for you.

Most reviewers put the performance of this bat at slightly below a broken-in Freak or Synergy 2.

Recommended for: ASA players who like endloaded bats.
