Bat Benefits
Louisville crafts this Solo -11 USA bat with premium SL Hyper ultralight alloy with a thinner wall design than other bats in the lineup. This contributes the bat's superb balance and also creates maximum pop on contact. The single-piece design makes this bat not only tough but also super fast throughout the swing, even for small batters. Control is key for youth hitters and this bat offers it in spades thanks to the Speed Ballistic Composite (SBC) cap.
The 2.63" barrel is also specially balanced with the alloy handle for ideal swing weight. Louisville finishes the handle with a premium LS Pro Comfort grip for a reduced shock on contact and a tactile grip that keeps this bat moving with confidence. Approved for use in AABC, Pony, Cal Ripken, Little League, Dixie Youth, and Babe Ruth, this bat offers youth hitters plenty of room to grow.

Louisville Slugger stands behind this bat with an impressive one-year warranty against manufacturing defects. They even offer one repair or replacement in the event of common on-field damage including severe dents, structural cracks and broken end caps or knobs.
Reviews
Average Ratings Based on 3 Customer Reviews
Pros: If I could give this bat a 6 star pop I would. It has great power and it is easy to swing for a USA bat.
Cons: Stung my hands just a little, but I also am going to replace the standard grip.
Pros: This bat has great pop and is super light. When you hit it in the inside of the bat I feel no vibration at all! When you hit the ball it does not feel like anything!
Cons: When you hit the ball at the end of the bat it stings badly. If you are off balanced when you swing then it will not hit the ball far at all.
Pros: Feels good not that much vibration but a little
Cons: Vibration and Pop

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.
