description Easton Mako Comp Overview
The Easton MAKO Comp was a line of two-piece composite bats produced for baseball and fastpitch softball, with specifications varying by model and governing association. Its composite barrel and handle were joined to reduce vibration and create a comparatively balanced swing feel. The line was aimed largely at competitive youth and amateur players who wanted a composite bat with a broad effective hitting area rather than the feel of a one-piece alloy design.
