Very good bat Chris player
Pros: It is a great bat, has a lot of pop. Overall good weighted, but that usually depends on the players feel/opinion. I own an ATEC pitching machine, and that thing can pretty much get pumped up to about 90-95. I was surprised this bat hasn't dented yet, usually my old bats did (exo-grid). I would recommend this over the three piece composite bat.
Cons: The only con is the vibration when you keep your hands inside the ball on an inside pitch and it hurts your hand pretty bad for about 30 seconds.
Dad & Coach C. Kyle coach
Pros: Lots of pop. My 12-year old hit several homers with this bat, ranging from 200-250 feet and he is 5'4" and 120 pounds.
Cons: Vibrates badly if hit on the handle on inside pitches.
Awesome Bat Blane player
Pros: I'm 12 years old and play in USSSA travel ball. I've used this bat for about two months now and I think it's my favorite bat yet. It has great pop, generals feel, and almost no vibration at all.
Cons: None.
Really Nice Bat Tony Miller parent
Pros: Really nice bat for the price - picked it up on close out. Good pop out of the wrapper. My son likes the balance of the bat as he is only 5' 5" 110 lbs. so not the strongest kid.
Cons: None so far

About the Brand
In 1842, J. Frederick Hillerich emigrated with his family from Baden-Baden, Germany to the United States. Eight years before, the 1834 Book of Sports had made its debut as the nation's first publication covering baseball. But when he arrived in Baltimore, J. Frederick Hillerich would never have dreamed of the future impact his family would have on America's favorite pastime.
After a short while, the Hillerichs moved to Louisville, where J. Fred started a woodworking shop in 1856. Two of his sons, Adam and John Andrew "Bud" were born in the United States and would later join their father in his business. By 1864 "J.F. Hillerich, Job Turning" was in operation and filled orders for businesses by custom-turning everything from balusters to bedposts.
The firm thrived, and by 1875 the little woodworking shop employed about 20 people. In 1880 Bud Hillerich, who was an amateur baseball player, became an apprentice in his father's shop. Young Bud made his own baseball bats along with bats for several of his teammates.
The debate over the origins of the first bat continues to generate controversy among baseball enthusiasts, but the younger Hillerich was most certainly involved in getting his father's business involved with what would become the company's signature item. According to company legend, the first bat was turned by Bud for Pete "The Old Gladiator" Browning in 1884. Browning was a star on Louisville's professional American Association team - the Eclipse. On a spring afternoon Bud, then seventeen, witnessed Browning break his favorite bat. Bud offered to make a bat for his hero, and Browning accepted. After the young wood shop apprentice lathed a quality stick from white ash, according to the story, Browning got three hits with it in the next game.
Louisville Slugger gloves are worn by more pitchers in Major League Baseball than any other glove.
