Description

Axe is about to turn good players into elite players with the new Axe Elite BBCOR baseball bat! Featuring a two-piece hybrid design, the barrel of the Axe Elite BBCOR was constructed using LP2 Scandium Alloy. Created from a combination of elements to deliver performance and durability under one-sided hitting conditions, the elongated LP2 Alloy barrel features a HUGE sweet spot for maximum performance! The Axe Elite BBCOR has also been fortified with the new Engineered Hitting Zone that reinforces the hitting side of the barrel and has the durability to stand up to one-sided hitting. But the thing that makes the Axe Elite stand out is the handle. Made from a lightweight composite material, the Axe handle helps players generate extra bat speed for ultimate power! Refined this year with improved ergonomics that deliver better performance and comfort, the Axe handle looks exactly like what it sounds like - the handle of an axe. It defies conventional thinking, but the Axe handle fits perfectly in your hands, pushing the bat to your fingertips where it's supposed to be. The Axe handle's oval shape establishes a single swing plane for consistent performance and maximum power, swing after swing. Axe is so confident that you'll love this bat, that they are offering a 30 day, no questions asked, money-back guarantee. If the Axe handle isn't for you, simply send it back. What do you have to lose? Axe: Unleash Your Swing! The Axe Elite is BBCOR Certified and legal for high school and collegiate play. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty.

matt

Pros: Love the handle, looks sweet, large sweet spot, keeps you on consistent swing plane.

Cons: The handle is a little over exaggerated, but no big deal. It also seems hard to swing at high, or low balls. It kind of makes you swing the same way. It is also slightly end loaded. But thats just personal preference.

A Hard Hitter Chuck Miller parent

Pros: Lots of hard hits. For a BBCOR bat this one is a great bat. It is comparable to the Marruchi Cat 6.

Cons: some players never held an AXE so you have to explain the grip.

Questions and Answers

Have a question about the Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

What material is this bat made of? Does it require a break in period? Andy
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat (L130A) has a two-piece hybrid design with a composite handle and alloy barrel. It does not require a break-in because of the alloy barrel.
Jason
Since you will be using only one side of the barrel due to the Axe handle will it shorten the bats life span? b
The Axe Elite BBCOR has also been fortified with the new Engineered Hitting Zone that reinforces the hitting side of the barrel and has the durability to stand up to one-sided hitting.
John
Since it has the Axe handle and you will use one side of the barrel, will it last as long as every other bat? b
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat (L130A) features a reinforced engineered hitting zone for one-sided hitting which will ensure durability on par with traditional style bats.
Jake
What is the difference in performance between the Axe Element and the Axe Elite? james
Performance for the Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat (L130A) and the Axe Element BBCOR Baseball Bat (L137A) and really any BBCOR bats will have the same peak performance level. The difference would be the feel and the material used for construction. The Elite will have more flex for more whipping motion while the Element will be a bit more controlled.
Patrick
I am 16 years old. I am 6 foot 1 and 180 pounds. What size bat do you recommend? chip
Based on height and weight, we would recommend a 33 inch size of the Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat (L130A).
Patrick
Being that this bat only allows you to hit on one side, will this bat have top notch performance without going over the BBCOR standards? And will this bat be able to handle the one side hitting? neonbaseball
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A will not exceed the BBCOR standards even though it incorporates one-side hitting on the barrel. It will still perform similarly to other BBCOR models and will be able to withstand the one-side hitting.
Cameron
I am 6'1", 165 pounds, and I am a contact hitter that hits mostly singles and doubles. I'm not very built. Would this be a good bat for me? coltyn23
Based upon your height and weight, I would recommend using a 33" Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A. This particular model is an excellent, high-quality baseball bat that would work great for a contact hitter.
John P
What if I choke up on a bat? Would the handle still work? nate
If you wanted to choke up on the Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A you could certainly do so but you are going to want to hit on the same barrel side as the Axe bats promote one-sided barrel hitting.
Cameron
Is this bat end loaded? Lucas
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A features a balanced swing weight.
Jason
Can I use this for high school? rube the tube
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A is certified for use in high school and college play as this bat has the BBCOR drop 3 certification.
Cameron
What would happen if I hit the ball on the opposite side? Kent
This Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat (L130A) is engineered to be hit on one side. Hitting on the opposite side of the bat will damage the structural build of this bat and provide little performance. I would not recommend hitting on the opposite side.
Ben
How is it "one side hitting"? Can left and right handed hitters use the bat? Caleb
This bat can be swung by a left and right handed hitter on the same side of the bat that is engineered to be hit with baseballs. Neither type of hitter would be forced to use the side not intended to be hit with baseballs.
Ben
Does the 30 day guarantee still apply? slugger10
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A comes with a 30 day guarantee from the date of purchase. This allows the consumer to use this bat within that 30 day window and, if not satisfied, one can send it back for an exchange or refund of the purchase price.
Cameron
Can you tell me the model year of the L130A you're selling? I've now seen a L130B and a 2015 L130C, so I was just curious what year the L130A was manufactured. Thanks. Matt
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A was released in 2012 and would be the 2013 model year.
Cameron
Can you use this for Colt Elite baseball? chris baseball
Yes, the Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A features the BBCOR certification stamp and it is legal for play in the Colt Division of the Pony League.
Jason
Can I use this bat in a game? I'm in middle school. nate
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A is BBCOR certified which is the certification that is required for all high school and collegiate level players. I would verify with your coach as to whether or not you are allowed to use this bat within your particular league.
John P.
Do you have this bat in a 31" 28oz.? Brian
Unfortunately, at this time (3/9/2016) we only have the 33" 30 oz. in the Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat (L130A).
John
Is this bat certified for Dixie League? MICHELE
This Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat (L130A) will be legal for use in the Junior Dixie/Boys, Pre-Majors and Majors divisions of Dixie Youth baseball.
Ben
How does this bat compare to the newer versions of the Axe Elite? Are the new ones better? Which one has the most pop? AAndrews
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A will not feature a lot of the new additions that were added to the most recent release, the 2016 AXE Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130D. The 2016 AXE Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130D will have an improved alloy with the Mantic Alloy Barrel. This barrel helps promote more durability from the one-sided hitting that Axe bats utilize. The handle has been improved with the addition of the flex handle, creating great whip for bat speed. Lastly, the end cap on the new 2016 AXE Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130D will be lightweight carbon composite giving this end cap more durability as well as helping balancing the bat more. These are the improvements that were made when comparing the 2016 AXE Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130D to the older model, the Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A.
Cameron
Why is it one sided hitting? brendan
The Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A features the patented AXE grip which if held correctly will only allow for one sided hitting.
John P.
Will JustBats be getting more of this bat? AAndrews
Unfortunately the Axe Elite BBCOR Baseball Bat: L130A has been discontinued by the manufacturer so we will not be getting more in stock.
