Louisville Slugger LXT X20 -11 Fastpitch Softball Bat: WTLFPLXD1120
Reach for this bat when speed, comfort and responsive contact are top priorities. The LXT X20 is Louisville's top bat for reduced recoil. It offers youth batters the chance to swing through the ball confidently but has plenty of power for college players and rising pros. Louisville's patented PBF barrel technology ensures maximum pop and durability without extended break-in times. Eye-catching digital graphics give a unique look to match your personal swagger stepping into the batter's box.
Bat Benefits
This bat is constructed with Louisville's proprietary VCX vibration control system for industry-leading recoil control. It's a three-part system allowing independent movement between the barrel and handle. They are joined with an elastometric connection for superb contact response with minimal vibration transferred into the hands and arms. The all-composite PFB barrel offers exceptional pop and a huge sweet spot that you'll both feel and hear. Like Louisville's pro-stock baseball bats, the LXT X20 has a classic, satisfying sound that lets you know when you've made solid contact.
Louisville's X-cap design allows for exceptional swing speed and balance with a slightly extended barrel length. The cap is ultra-light and low profile to help increase the sweet spot without any changes to your swing. Vibrations are minimized further thanks to the premium LS Pro Comfort grip. More tack has been added for model fastpitch bats for improved control with each swing. With a custom -11 drop weight, this fastpitch bat turns quickly and offers a light, agile balance for batters age 14 and up.

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.
