Hittrax Exit Velocity Testing will take place after on-field hitting! Also a big update: it sounds like Monsta recently announced that they will we discontinuing their M2 bats - and will move forward with just M5, M6, and M7 (tentative). Not sure exactly what their reasoning behind that is, but if anybody has any additional insight or speculation, feel free to reply to this comment with your thoughts! Additional commentary below contains *spoilers* so don't read until after watching: Both kinds of bat testing are super important: 1) Exit velo testing off of a tee shows how good the bat is when you square it up perfectly every time. 2) On-field hitting exposes how easy or difficult it is to connect with that ‘perfect’ spot on the barrel. And hitting off of real pitching also shows how the bat reacts to a little bit of incoming velocity. The M4/M6 seemed to get “bullied by the ball” as we like to say - resulting in more rollovers and slight mis-hits. The M2/M5 powered through the ball much better and created a lot more ideal loft/spin.

The rumor mill on the topic says it’s a patent issue with the M2. Not sure, but this video was great. Loved everything about it. You might need a dedicated pitcher though will for live BP. That other guy was crushing it but you had to hit quite a few balls over your head 😂. Seems like a real awesome dude though so no disrespect intended to that baller. I like that this will even out the game some in ASA. The M2 tech is just too superior in ASA right now.

Great video as usual bro. This was VERY detailed, and I'm all about the deetz!

Great content as always. I love the m2 but starting to lean towards the m5 now. I have the dale brungardt on order can’t wait to get

Just got my DNA Legacy about 2 weeks ago, got about 200 swings with a T. My league just started up and Its an absolute unit of a bat

I was just using the M2 sinister clack addict today. Under-handing to myself because why not, and I was probably getting 365-375 in the air with it! Had multiple balls roll over 410 feet in total distance. Most insane bat I’ve ever used. Idk if I would say it’s better than Usssa Masburn Genesis. But damn both really fun bats!

What up fellas! Great video. Yesterday I swung the 25oz DNA, 26oz fallout, 25oz torch, all 2021. Great pop for nukes! One that has surprised me the most is the 2018 true North! Great durability!

Another great video! Asking again, ever considering doing a hitting tips video?!?

I finally got on the Monsta bandwagon last year and I am sold...I got the Bat Hound's Unleashed model of the Sinister and although it was way heavier than my other 25 ounce bats, performance was great...the balls have that crack sound when hitting them and the balls jump...i have felt that "i didn't get it feel" when i hit the ball but the ball flies anyhow...when you do feel it, it really goes....next up for you guys is the Utrip Suncoast Austin Dawe balanced 12" Ruckus and the CE version and the new 12" Ruckus Endload.....time to get these on the national radar...very popular down south Florida way...great job on the Monstas, boys

I have the Monsta Unleashed too, sometimes it's a little unforgiving, but I don't have that many swings on it yet either

Would have been interested to see how the Monsta Black Sheep stacked up to the bats in this review.

The M2 torch juiced (black sheep) was also one that hit a 104mph for you

From answers I’ve gotten back to inquires from different sources…my understanding is that… M6 is M4…but from more recent batches with better processing of materials after lessons learned from original M4 batch

Dope! We haven’t tried the M6 yet sadly, but soon baby soon! Keep it real 💯

Gotta say my kreacher and my sinister I bought because of your recommendation and I love them both.

Great Video Guys, we are using some Monsta M2 in our Team, very hot bats.!!

Literally just played my first game yesterday after not playing any competitive ball in 13 years got picked up by a couple buddies because they had a empty spot on the roster. One of my boys had the black listed monsta and I fell in love with the bat. So down the rabbit hole I go. Acquiring all new equipment.

Awesome review 🔥🔥🔥

Been waiting for this one

Are you going to do a review of the Monsta Trippin Torch USSSA bat? Thanks for all the video's you produce very helpful my location is Yellowknife NT Canada so this content truly helps narrow down the best bats and what climate they perform the best in as well. Keep them coming please take care all.

You guys should give the Louisville slugger 4thefallen ASA bat a try it kinda looks like a Asa version of the genesis really interested in seeing if it could hang with these bats or the krecher

Would love to see you guys do this with the dna mutated fully broken in. The splitting wigs fully broke in too.

Since you like the LS U-trip bats so much, you should really review some of the LS ASA/USA bats and see how they compare with the Monsta!

Literally bought a Tiospaye after watching Cam swing it. I'm Sioux Indian so it means a little more to me the bat that is.

I got the same sinister but green nd I love it the ball shoots off the bat fast

Great video. What weights are you swinging? Thanks

I do wonder how much temperature plays into how well the bats perform, in addition to swing preference. In my experience (with both Monsta and Anarchy) the harder barrelled stuff performs better in the cold, whereas the thinner/hotter stuff kicks ass when it’s warm/hot. Great video as ever guys!

The temperature definitely does have a play in bats and balls. In the cold weather the bat barrels are gonna be cold and harder as well as the balls and can hit a ball a mile in the cold lol and in the warm/hot weather the bat barrel is gonna hot and soft as well as the balls and won’t fly as much

Wow! that was great!!! I'm really digging the new M5 stuff, it performs like a broken in M2 right out the wrapper, I was getting up to 100mph within the first 15 cuts. I do love how tanky the M2 bats are, but for my personal preference, I still game the M6 SKUD. I'm really looking forward to the Torch Mutated when that drops.

I agree with them completely on the weighting. I generally swing balanced or .5 el and a soon as I picked up the dna legacy I could feel the weighting difference immediately. It wasn't even that it was a heavier swing endload but it was an overall heavier feeling bat altogether. Mine is a 25 and it feels more like an anarchy in weighting. -Windy

Y'all have to try the tripping torch!! Please

Whats the difference between torch and fallout? Is it weighting or is the tech actually different? Looks like they are the same, M2 tech, but im new to Monsta and have trouble keeping up with all the different tech/repaints

Im guessing the torch is the 2021 model do you know if the 2022 model is similar?? Is it worth buying it or should i shop around for the 21 model? Iv been wanting a torch for awhile can never get my hands on one this video just confirms my hunger for one lol

Just bought the 2022 version of the M2 single piece sinista. Based on your opinion. Hope I love it. Never swung a 25 ounce before. So hope it works out lol I play ASA modified ball with clincher golds in NJ. Last season I bought a 27 ounce kreacher! Amazing bat. The other game bat I used was Miken freak balanced. Great bat as well.

which one is better the end load or mid load M2 Monsta? Chicks did the long ball in our church league.

Try the monsta fallout it's sick

I just purchased a Sinister M2 (woody) and I just realized that the league I play in use ASA 40 core 275 balls. I'm kind of a noob at this but can this damage my bat? I love the videos man, keep up the great work.

Yes it can. Monsta says to only use .52 300 with their USA/ASA bats. Anything harder will damage the bat.

Hey I see the 2021 M2 2 piece for sale. Is the one you are using the same or is it the 2022?

Not going to lie, really wanted to see your buddy Cameron hit off the tee. Curious what his exit velo is.

What handle flex were the torch and sinister?

What kind of 2 piece m2 torch was it? 3500 mid load? Or balance? My new m5 midload 3900 I’m not a huge fan of. Just curious if the midload of the m5 is as heavy as the m2

Are these bats considered senior bats? i play in a ASA bats league but I was told it had to be a senior bat. i have no idea what that means or how to tell if the sinister bat is a senior bat. i was also told as long as it has ASA I should be good to go.

I bought the Tiospaye from A3 after seeing Cam smoke the ball. I was wondering what the difference between this bat and an actual Torch is. More importantly, why is a Torch going for $400 and sold out while the Tiospaye and other Torch repaints are redly available at MSRP? Thanks and keep up the great work. I have bought 4 bats in the past 2 years based on your videos here and on the Bat Bros channel and all lived up to expectations

Yo will. I am debating on the sinister or black sheep (both m2 tech obviously) but Sinister is 25oz exclusive and black sheep in 25oz and 26oz and was wondering, as someone who swings mostly 26-27 oz bats, how did the 25oz sinister feel? Does it have enough endload to feel like it does some of the driving through the ball for you? Or is it so light that you have to do all the work? Basically just asking if it’s worth going with the 25oz based on the performance in the video. Thanks!!!

How many hits to break in a Sinister?

I'm just taking a stab in the dark here but I'm thinking the talk of phasing out M2 comes from the abundance of inventory of the last years bats. There are a TON of re-paints on the market so by announcing they are done with M2 it drives up both demand to move those as well as the price. With how much better the M2 tech performs compared to everything else, I'm willing to bet the new M7 tech will be suspiciously close in feel and specs to the M2.
