Great power bat Cam player

Pros: This bat is a great power bat for power hitters. It even hit rockets right out of the box and is even better when it 8s broken in. I really recommend this bat to power hitters.

Cons: I really liked this bat in yellow more than neon orange because it makes me feel i have a MAKO and i personally think the MAKO wasnt a great bat. Other than that this bat has no cons.

Easton Mako XL1 BeastMode44 player

Pros: I honestly think that this bat is one of the best bats on the market. I love how it is a longer bat and how it is a heavier bat over all. I used this in my last Tournament, and a pitcher left a curve ball inside and i poked it out of the park on a 300 ft field. Great pop don't even feel it

Cons: None!

awesome bat Caden player

Pros: This bat has A LOT of pop. Good for clearing the bases. also hits home runs easily.

Cons: the paint chips really easily. it also gets dirty really fast but still a great bat. i suggest they use the 2013 model's paint so it doesn't chip that easily.

better than ANY demarini bat! baseball 101 parent

Pros: my grandson previously has owned many demarini bats and liked them. however his new minus 8 cf7 just fell short of the usual demarini quality. he complained about it so i bought him this xl1. right away the great balance, huge sweet spot, and impressive overall power made a huge difference in his in game performance.

Cons: everyone else on his team wants to use it now and i wasted 300 dollars on a cheap waste of metal. that cf7 is and will remain out in the shed colecting dust.

Love the Easton XL1 Bats! ReneeT parent

Pros: Breaks in quickly. A lot of "pop" immediately with very little vibration.

Cons: My son prefers more cushion in the grip so we re-taped it right away. This is a personal preference, not necessarily a con.

Patrick
Which is better: the CF7 or XL1? marc
the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) and CF7 are equally good bats. It depends on what type of hitter you are to determine which bat is better for you. The CF7 has a balanced swing weight and is typically better for contact hitters. The XL1 has an end loaded swing weight and is typically better for power hitters. The XL1 has approximately a half ounce end load.
Jason
My son is 12 yrs and is 5'9" and weights 175. He can't decide between the MAKO or 2015 XL1 for club ball. Which is best for him and what size big barrel? Mike
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) features an end loaded swing weight, which is generally preferred by power hitters. It also features an extended barrel, which is also seen in the MAKO as well. The main difference between the MAKO and the XL1 is that the MAKO is balanced. So if your son is more of a contact hitter, that may be a better choice for him. Ultimately, it will come down to which bat better suits your son's hitting style (power vs. contact). Based on his height and weight, we recommend a 32" model.
Tessa
I am 5' 6", and about 110 pounds. I am looking to buy this bat by next spring. I swing a 31" 21 oz. right now, should I go to a 32" or stay at a 31" with this bat? #24 Paragon Baseball
Based on your height and weight, we recommend a 31" 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18). Sizing is preferential though, so if you would feel more comfortable jumping to a 32", that is definitely something to take into consideration.
Tessa
Im a power hitter and am looking for a new big barrel and was trying to detirmine which would be a better bat for me im 5'1 130lbs. and am deciding between the Demarini voodoo overlord 2015 and the 2015 XL1 Troll
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) is going to be a fully composite design and end loaded, while the 2015 Demarini Voodoo Overlord is going to be a two piece hybrid design, with a composite handle and an alloy barrel, and it is also going to be end loaded. Either will be great for a power hitter.
Frankie
Is this bat approved for middle school? unknown
The bat rules and guidelines for middle school vary from league to league. So, there is no way to guarantee that the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) will be approved for your league. Check with the coach and/or the league director to see if the Easton XL1 is approved for your league.
Liz
Hello I am a power hitter and am 5' 2" 130 lbs. What size bat should I get? Cody
For a player of your size, our bat coach recommends the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) in a 31" model. If you have been swinging a drop 10, I would recommend transitioning to the drop 8. If you have been swinging the drop 8, I would recommend trying the drop 5. Typically, most players transition to a BBCOR bat (drop 3) from a drop 5, as the 5 ounce transition from a drop can be fairly difficult.
Joe
Is the Easton 2015 XL1 a -8 baseball bat that is end loaded? Jonny Baseball
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) does feature an end-loaded swing weight.
Joe
Would you suggest this bat for an 11 year old who currently swings the XL1 Youth Bat in a 31" model? Dave
For a player of his age, the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) will likely be too heavy as he is moving from a drop 10 to a drop 8. End-loaded models do have a tendency to feel slightly heavier than their listed weight due to a different pivot point and mass distribution. You could consider the 2015 Easton MAKO Senior League Baseball Bat (SL15MK9) which will be offered in a drop 9, and has a more balanced feel than the XL1. Additionally, the size of the sweet spot on the MAKO is quite a bit larger.
Joe
Is this bat the same bat as last year's version, except for the paint? Dave
The update to the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) is cosmetic.
Frankie
can you use this bat in babe ruth because I was searching it up on the internet and it said it has to adleast be .50 alloy or can not be used in game. hammer
This bat is not approved for any division in Babe Ruth Baseball. Essentially, for you to be able to use a bat with a composite barrel, like this 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18), it has to be a BBCOR certified model with a -3 length to weight ratio. Depending on the player's age and division, that may not be a requirement. But to be able to use something lighter, like a -8 length to weight ratio, the barrel must be made of Alloy; not composite. If you know what division you're in and the age of the player, please feel free to give us a call or reply to this email for more recommendations on what is approved in your division.
Mac
First year of Babe Ruth. I am wondering what length and weight I should get? I am 5'1" 90 lbs and growing? Bryan
Based on your height and weight, we suggest a 31" 23 oz model.. However, the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) has a 2 5/8" barrel diameter, -8 length to weight ratio, and is fully composite. It is not legal for play in any Babe Ruth division because of those features.
Jason
What is a good Easton composite -8 big barrel, that is balanced and good for contact hitters? stevie
The Easton MAKO TORQ or the Easton S400 would be more balanced and great for contact hitters. The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) will feel more barrel heavy and end loaded.
Brandon
My son is 13 years old, 5 foot 5 inches and 115 pounds. He used a 30 inch 20 ounce Easton Mako last year, I want to move him to a drop -8. Would you recommend this bat in 31 inch 23 ounce? TR
Based on his height and weight I would recommend getting the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) in a 31 inch 23 ounce. The Easton XL1 is going to be an end loaded bat designed for power hitters while the Easton Mako is balanced and designed for contact hitters.
Frankie
What size would be good for an 11 year old boy? He's about 5 feet tall and 115 pounds. Sam
Based on his height and weight, we would recommend a 31" model in the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18).
Chinyere
What MAKO should I use for high school baseball? baseball king
High school baseball requires BBCOR certification, so we would suggest looking at the 2015 Easton MAKO BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB15MK)
Chinyere
I am 5'6" and 120 lbs. and am currently swinging a -10 CF6 and a -3 Vexxum for junior high baseball. Should I get a -5 or -8? I am just a little nervous because of the end load on the bat that a drop -5 might be too heavy. C_Carter_9
The swing weight on the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X15) will feel pretty similar to your -3 Vexxum. If you think that your bat speeds will be too low with the drop -3 Vexxum I would recommend going with the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18).
Jake
My son is 11 years old, weighs 95 lbs and is 4'10". Would you recommend this bat? If so, what size would be accurate for him? baseballmom1
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) is an excellent option for your son. Based on his height and weight, we suggest a 30" model.
Jason
I am 90 pounds and 4 foot 10. What size would you recommend? iceman
Based on height and weight, we would probably suggest a 30 inch size of the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18).
Patrick
Is this bat Babe Ruth approved? Jim
No, the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) is not approved for Babe Ruth. Babe Ruth requires all composite bats to be BBCOR certified.
John
Is this bat approved in Pony League? dawg1503
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) meets the bat requirements for all divisions of play in Pony League Baseball except for the Colt and Palomino divisions.
Ben
I am 12 years old. I am 5'6" 145 pounds and want to know what is the best size for me? bobby cooper
I would recommend the 32" in the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) model for you.
John
What drop would be the best for a kid that is 12 years old 5'6 and 145 pounds? bobby cooper
For a player at his age we generally recommend a -5 or a -8 depending on the previous size and weight he was using.
John
I am 12 years old, 5'4" and 145 lbs. What size should I get? jose baseball
Based on your height and weight, we suggest a 31" model in the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18).
Jason
Does the Easton XL1 come in a -10? I'm looking for a 30 in 20 oz. Rob g
No, the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League Baseball Bat is not produced in a -10. The lightest the XL1 is produced in the big barrel model is a -8 drop.
John
Is a 14U Babe Ruth league player able to use this bat? Wek
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat: SL15X18 is not legal for play in Babe Ruth. A 14U player is required to use a BBCOR certified bat if it is composite. The SL15X18 features the USSSA 1.15 BPF stamp, but does not feature the BBCOR certification.
Jason
My son is 11 years old and under 100 pounds. What would be the size and weight you suggest? Also, what about a comparable bat if my budget doesn't allow this one? Trip
The size we would recommend of the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) would depend on the height and weight of the player. If we have both, we may be able to better size them. Unfortunately, the XL1 is one of the only bats that would feature that end-loaded feel in a two-piece composite design so there are not any bats that would directly compare to this.
Patrick
Will there be any difference between the 2015 bat or the new 2016 bat? bobby cooper
The newer version of the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) will be called the 2016 Easton MAKO XL Senior League Baseball Bat (SL16MK8) which will be different in that it uses the TCT Thermocomposite material that was featured on the MAKO but has a very close feel to the XL1.
Patrick
Does the XL1 -8 bat feel like its given weight? dinger nation
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat: SL15X18 has an end loaded swing weight, so it may feel just a tad heavier than its listed weight.
Marcus
Is this a two piece bat? V
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) is a two-piece composite design.
Patrick
My son is 12 years old, 5 foot 11, and weighs 250 pounds. Should I get him the -8? BIG D
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) would be a good bat for your player. based on height and weight, we would recommend the 32 inch size.
Patrick
My 12 year old boy is 5 foot 6 and weighs 120 pounds. He is currently using a DeMarini Voodoo 30 inch -9 bat. We are considering this bat in a 31 inch -8 size. Does that sound right? jman21
Going up slightly in drop weight to the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) would be a logical progression for your player and should be easy to adjust to for the player.
Patrick
what size should i be im 5"0 11 years old and 95 pounds what size should i get. chino
For someone with your height and weight, I would recommend using a 30" 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat: SL15X18.
John
should i get this or the xl1 2015 im a power hitter more i dont want something to heavey but something for power hitters and has good pop can u tell me.the details about each bat and wich has better pop. chino
Typically, power hitters are going to prefer an end-loaded/one-piece bat. The end-loaded bat (XL1) allows for great bat whip with the barrel head of the bat and the one-piece will not flex as much as a two-piece bat such as the Easton S2. Both the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) and the 2016 Easton S2 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL16S210) would be great choices but most power hitter are going to prefer the XL1.
Cameron
hey what are the inches u have to be for a 30 inch bat how tall do u have to be chino
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) in a 30 inch length would be ideal for someone who is around 5' 101-110 lbs.
Cameron
would there be a diffrence in weight if i had a xl1 -10 youth 2014 model its a 31 inch 21 ounces will ther be a diffrence in bet swing if i get this bat in a 30 in 22 ounce do u think it will affect my bat swing ivan
If you went with the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) in a 30" 22 oz. it shouldn't affect your swing much. I imagine it will take some adjustment to the smaller bat but your bat speed shouldn't see a drastic change.
Cameron
im 4"11 95 pounds and im choosing between the 30 or 31 inches wich should i get i want to get the 31 inch because i feel the 30 inch will get to short for me want would u recomend if u say the 31 i have a -10 21 ounce bat will there be a major diffrence in my bat speed mogoly
You can get the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) in a 30/22 and, based on your height/weight, this would be my suggestion. Of course, if you wanted you can go with a 31" bat you could do that as well. How your bat speed may be affected is tough to tell as it varies from player to player.
Cameron
what is the size and weight do u have to be for a 30 inch i might not go woth the 31 cause that is to heavey cause im 4"11 96 pounds but what is the length u have to be in in 30 inch and 31 ivan
For someone with your height and weight, I would definitely recommend using a 30" 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat: SL15X18. I would say you would have to add a couple inches to your height and about 25 pounds to your weight before you should consider moving up to a 31" model.
John
Is this bat more barrel heavy? Ethan
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat: SL15X18 is going to feature an end loaded swing weight which will make it more barrel heavy.
John
what is the diffrence in this bat and the -5 version what are the diffrences does one have better pop and if u hit the ball with both will they sound the same ivan
The 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) and the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X15) are the same bat and the only difference will be the drop. The drop 5 could potentially have more pop in it assuming that the individual using both bats can produce the same bat speed with both of the bats; more mass in the barrel head of the drop 5. As for sound, they will be the same.
Cameron
What is the difference between the XL1 and XL3 bats? My son plays competitive travel baseball 13u and I am looking for a bat for him. JP
The difference between the Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat: SL15X18 and the Easton XL3 is that this bat is a two-piece composite construction while the XL3 is a one-piece alloy design.
John P.
I am 5' 8" playing 13u travel team and I'm wondering what senior league means and if it really matters if I would be getting a 32in 24oz? Zachbaseball

John P.
What size bat should I get? I'm not really a power hitter or that strong and I'm 11. My couch said I have to get this bat so what size should I get? I currently have a 29 inch Easton S3. haujsbsh

What's the difference between this bat and the Easton MAKO XL? hshx
This Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) will be a two-piece, all-composite bat with an end-loaded swing, just like the MAKO XL (SL16MK8). However, the specific composite materials will differ on the two bats.

My son is 5 foot 7 120 pounds should I move him out to a 32 inch bat or stick with the 31 thank you cmd
Based on your son's height and weight, I would recommend that he move to a 32" length of bat. That would be the 32" 24 oz. size in this specific model.

Do they have the all orange one that is two-piece, drop -3? It has orange all the way to the handle. rhino
The Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat: SL15X18 was a model from 2015 and, as such, is a discontinued bat. This bat was not produced in the 2016 Easton line so once this bat sells out there will be no more coming in. Basically, the bat that has replaced the XL1 in the Easton lineup is the MAKO XL.

I am 11 years old, I am 5' tall and weigh 102 lbs. I was wondering how long and how heavy of a bat I should buy? Jackson

Is this bat Little League Junior division compliant? LLL Angels
The Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat: SL15X18 is not Little League Junior Division compliant as this bat features a composite barrel. All composite barrels would have to be BBCOR certified which is a bat with a -3 length to weight ratio.
Cameron
My son is 14 years old, 150 lbs and 5'6". He plays in the Junior Division of Little League Baseball. What size option would of this bat would you recommend? Mirka
Based upon your player's height and weight, I would recommend a Youth Big Barrel bat with a 32" length. Unfortunately, this Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18) will not be allowed for use in the Junior Division of Little League Baseball. The reason is because this XL1 has a composite barrel and in the Junior League, composite bats are only allowed if they have BBCOR .50 certification. If you wanted an Easton bat that has a -8 length-to-weight ratio and end-loaded swing weight that will be legal for the Junior Division, I would recommend the 2016 Easton XL3 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL16X38). The XL3 is legal because it has an all-alloy build and the USSSA 1.15 BPF certification.
