A chill in the air. Quiet expectation. Your moment is here. Don't miss it. That's how Combat introduced the Shooters Shoot, and it's about the best description of a late-October morning in a deer stand or a late-inning at-bat with the game on the line that you'll find on a bat box. The Shooters Shoot is the hunter-orange member of Combat's 2026 Outdoor collection, a camo Spec A1 with blaze orange accents that Combat says represents the balance of intensity and serenity that the outdoor life offers. It was a limited run, it sold out at the manufacturer, and some retailers were capping it at one per customer before it was gone. Now it lives in our Rare Finds section at LongballBats.com, new in the wrapper, in a few sizes - while they last.
The name is a mindset, and the bat backs it up. Shooters shoot because they trust the work, and the Spec A1 is the one-piece alloy that's earned that trust from more high school hitters than any bat in its class. Combat calls it the top BBCOR bat in the game, and the build hasn't changed because it hasn't needed to. SFX Barrel Technology uses special engineering processes to create a longer barrel and a bigger sweet spot than any other one-piece alloy, so there's more of the bat that produces hard contact and a ball off the end still has a chance. It swings balanced, which keeps a one-piece alloy quick through the zone without giving up any barrel performance, and Combat tuned the stiffness to deliver the direct feel of a one-piece with the forgiveness of a two-piece on a jam shot. The Clinch Spec Grip is pre-loaded with extra tack and just the right amount of cushion, and the sound at contact is the same head-turning thwack that has hitters barreling balls up just to hear it again.
Our Rare Finds section exists for exactly this kind of bat: a limited edition that disappeared before most hitters knew it existed. LongballBats.com has been the Bat Performance Experts since 2016, our staff carries more than 100 years of combined baseball and softball experience, and we've assembled one of the largest selections of sold-out, discontinued, and limited edition bats you'll find anywhere, including Combat drops from the Outdoor, Cookie Jar, Rodeo, Midnight Rodeo, and Performance collections that Combat no longer sells. If you're after a specific bat, start with Rare Finds, and if it isn't there, ask us. When you buy a Rare Find from us, you get a brand new bat with the manufacturer's warranty, honest sizing advice, and same-day shipping on most orders placed before 1PM Eastern. Your moment is here. Don't miss it.

QUESTION: Should I order this bat stock/untouched or Heat Rolled with Progressive Pressure?
ANSWER: If you order your new bat Heat Rolled with Progressive Pressure, it will be delivered to you completely and evenly broken in. This process adds 20-40ft of distance to your solid hits, increases consistency, improves durability and adds 2-3 business days of lead time to your order. If you plan to use the bat in an official game or event, please verify the legality of our process with your league or sanctioning body before use. We (LongballBats.com) do not encourage the use of a Heat Rolled bat in any game or event where it is against the rules. Click here for details about our process!
QUESTION: Should I order this bat with Free Shipping or Upgraded Shipping?
ANSWER: It just depends on how quickly you need it. This RARE FIND Bat is ready to ship and will generally ship same day if ordered before 1PM EST. Our free shipping method is just the cheapest method available to your address, which is usually a 2-6 day transit time but is NOT guaranteed. The upgrade options specify their transit times. UPS 2 Day Air and/or UPS Next Day Air are popular options for customers needing a bat quickly.
QUESTION: Why is this bat priced higher than retail?
ANSWER: Since limited edition and highly sought after bats are often are next to impossible to get, there are times that we're willing to pay higher than retail prices for them in the secondary market so that we're able to make them available to our customers. Many customers value performance and convenience over price, so our "RARE FIND" inventory is purchased with this in mind.
QUESTION: What does "Shooters Shoot" mean?
ANSWER: It's a confidence mantra that crossed over from the basketball court to every other sport: a shooter keeps shooting no matter what happened on the last shot, because that's who they are. Combat put it on a hunting-themed bat for a reason. Whether it's a buck stepping into a clearing or a 2-2 fastball with runners on, the moment comes once, and the player who's prepared for it doesn't hesitate. Combat's tagline for the bat says the same thing: quiet expectation, your moment is here, don't miss it. It's a good thing to read on your barrel before you step in.
QUESTION: Is the orange on the Shooters Shoot a problem for college play?
ANSWER: The Shooters Shoot is BBCOR .50 certified, and it's sold as approved for high school and college play. The college color restriction that affects Combat's Rodeo "Greatest Show on Dirt" comes from that bat's fully orange barrel. The Shooters Shoot uses hunter-orange as an accent color on a camo base, which is a different situation, and Combat lists it for both high school and college. That said, college bat rules are enforced by umpires on the field, so if you're an NCAA or NJCAA player, confirm with your conference before you take it into a game.
QUESTION: What's the difference between the Shooters Shoot and the Hunter?
ANSWER: Both are camo Spec A1 bats from Combat's 2026 Outdoor collection, built identically with SFX Barrel Technology, a balanced swing weight, and the Clinch Spec Grip. The Shooters Shoot uses hunter-orange accents and leans into the confidence mantra. The Hunter uses deep red accents and carries "Be the Hunter, Not the Hunted" across the sweet spot. On the field they'll swing and hit the same, so pick the one that matches your bag, your boots, or your personality. We stock both in Rare Finds (when we can get them!)
