I realize this is an opinion question but who would know which bats are the best but the people who have used them. If there’s a reason why you rank a bat please list it. I’m really struggling to pick a bat for this season. Please consider all brands Miken, Easton, Worth, Mizuno, the bat must still be ASA approved after January 1st 2008. No “grandfathered” in bats!
What Are The Top Ten Slow Pitch Softball Bats For Men?

I don’t have a top 10 list, but I’ve got several I really like:
My bat of choice right now is the DeMarini-Ray DeMarini Distance. Rope after rope after rope… The Miken Freak Plus is always solid. The Mizuno Techfire Wrath 98 and Crush a great bats (I prefer the Wrath).
Miken also has the Decoy. I think it’s kind of cheesy looking, all in camouflage, but looks mean nothing, really. It has a lot of pop. Several players on my team love that bat. Comes with a matching backpack, too.
I’ve seen more home runs hit by the “Miken Freak 98″ Than any other, but honestly if you are a good hitter I really don’t think the bat makes much difference. I use a worth Wicked Insanity 28 oz 34 inches. Personal Preference is key, but I don’t think you can go wrong with many of todays highly engineered bats. Try to get the best value for your money. I guess I would lean a little towards Miken you can get most of their bats under $200.00 from a Company called Line Drive.
Check out the reviews and rankings forum at http://www.softballfans.com/reviews/ . It should give you a good idea how other players rank their bats. Also, I’ve learned that because new models are introduced every year, you can save substantially by buying last year’s model.
