Balance and speed are two things that the
Louisville Slugger LXT has come to represent year after year. When looking for a bat that consistently performs with every swing you can look no further than the
LXT 2022. Its unrivaled balance increases bat speed for maximum pop and its huge sweet spot reduces the number of miss-hits. The Slugger LXT was one of the most popular options on the college fastpitch scence for 2021 and we expect that trend to carry into the 2022 season. If you are a middle of the order power hitter, we would highly recommed you try out the new
Louisville Slugger LXT -10.
Louisville Slugger knows that the name of the game is speed and the LXT once again delivers. Since the launch of the
LXT, it has always been known to be one of if not the most balanced bats available to the fastpitch softball player. Building on the huge success of last year, the new
2022 LXT bat model has kept much of the same technology that made the previous model such a success on the field. With its speed composite design with patented single disk-PBF technology that provides maximum performance, industry-leading sweet spot, and distinct sound at contact. The 3-Piece design featuring the new and updated VCX2 vibration control connection system that allows the barrel and the handle to have independent movement to help control vibration and allow the hitter just the right amount of feedback in the hands at the point of contact.
Double down on the competition this season with the brand new
Easton Ghost Double Barrel Drop 10 Fastpitch Bat. The new double barrel technology featured in htis bat will take your game to new heights immediately with no break in required. This bat just dropped earlier this month and its already making a huge splash on the summer travel season. Those players who liked the way the 2021 Ghost Advanced felt, will love the pop and performance of the
2022 Easton Ghost Double Barrel. The
Ghost Double Barrel is also approved for both USSSA and ASA leagues and tournaments.
One of the biggest surprises of the 2021 fastpitch season has to be the
2021 Rawlings Mantra. A new bat for 2021 that has generated so much hype and popularity. The University of Oklahoma won the 2021 Softball College World Series with this bat being their weapon of choice. Combined with innovative high-performance technology the
Rawlings Mantra will help maximize your performance and could be an excellent choice for both contact and power hitters alike.
We pride ourselves on keeping up with all the latest and greatest fastpitch bats that are soon to launch for 2022. Each and every week we meet and discuss with various vendor brands and reps to see their new line up of bats that will be coming out for 2022. We get the chance to see and even test some of these fastpitch bats before they have even made it to market, which gives us the privilege of educating our customers on which bats we think will be the top of the crop for the next season. We take the time to thoroughly go through each fastpitch bat and try to determine if
In a regular year, early to late fall is the time when these bats are usually set to be released. However many manufactures are still trying to strategize and finalize a game plan following the 2020 pandemic year.
