Louisville Meta -5 USSSA Baseball Bat
The 2021 Meta drop 5 was purposely designed to be one of the lightest swinging drop 5 USSSA baseball bats on the market. The Meta drop 5 features Louisville Slugger’s EKO Composite material. The Meta EKO Composite barrel is created using the lightest composite materials available to bat manufacturers. These lighter materials allow for a massive barrel profile and an optimized sweet spot. The larger sweet spot on 2021 Meta drop 5 is going to be much more forgiving after off-centered contact. It is extremely rare for a balanced bat to have a sweet spot surface area of this magnitude. The barrel profile combined with the balanced swing weight is what makes the Meta drop 5 so special.
The Louisville Slugger Meta drop 5 is constructed using Louisville Slugger’s VCX2 technology which stands for Vibration Control Connection System. The three-piece VCX2 construction on the 2021 Meta drop 5 allows for independent movement between the barrel and the handle to control vibration and create an unmatched feel after contact. The large barrel profile and enhanced sweet spot combined with the three-piece VCX2 construction make the Meta drop 5 one of the smoothest swinging USSSA baseball bats for the upcoming season. The Louisville Slugger Meta drop 5 was specifically designed to have the best of both worlds with a gigantic barrel and a very balanced swing weight.
The Meta drop 5 is perfect for the elite player that wants a little more weight when compared to a drop 8 without sacrificing bat speed. The additional three ounces of mass will help forcibly redirect the ball into the field. An ideal choice for that 7th or 8th grader looking to add more mass and power to their game. The Meta drop 5 is also an ideal choice for the hitter that plans on eventually moving to the heavier drop 3 high school bats. No hitter wants to jump from a drop 10 or drop 8 to a drop 3. The increase in weight is too extreme, and it will take even the most experienced hitters months to adjust to the additional swing weight. The Louisville Slugger Meta drop 5 is the perfect high performing transition bat for the competitive USSSA travel ballplayer.
