Product Description

The 2026 Miken HB12 Retro 12.5" End Loaded USA Slowpitch Softball Bat (MSA6HBRL) is built for hitters who want a bat that looks unreal, swings buttery smooth, and hits with that USA/ASA league-ready pop.

This Headbanger Sports exclusive is based on Miken’s proven 12.5" two-piece Maxload platform, giving you the perfect blend of control and power with a 0.5 oz end load that finishes through the zone and makes the ball jump when you square it up. The MID FLEX handle helps reduce vibration while still giving you that clean whip on every swing, and the MAX FLEX barrel tech keeps the barrel lively and responsive across the hitting surface, so you can get big results without needing a perfect swing every time. Add the A1 Knob for locked-in comfort and control, and you’ve got a bat that’s made to hit loud, look louder, and make pitchers get real careful.

And here’s the part that matters: this is a true limited drop... with only 400 bats made, each one serial numbered, and only available at HeadbangerSports.com. When they’re gone, you won’t “find it later”… you’ll be hunting it.
