Description

Louisville Slugger Prime -10 USA Baseball Bat: WBL2536010

The Louisville Slugger Prime carries on the legacy of its illustrious name within the USA baseball bat market!

Bat Benefits 

Get this 3-piece bat and expect big results within the USA sector of baseball. Slugger has outfitted the bat its AVC Microform Composite that should create a really lengthy sweetspot and also deliver a bat that is easy to handle through the strike zone. 

And as you may have noticed in the text above, it is indeed referred to as a three-piece baseball bat. The three parts consist of the (1) barrel (2) handle and (3) the connector piece. And Louisville Slugger has put in the time to get this connector piece right. They use their VCX Vibration Control Connection System to link the barrel and handle together. That VCX system employs a synthetic piece of material within it which allows for independent movement between the barrel and handle portions of the bat. That independent movement should prevent vibration from getting down to a batter's hands on a miss-hit. As well, it should deliver great pop at the moment of contact with a baseball.

Lastly, be sure to know that a drop 10 bat can appease the needs of many different ages of hitters. We think there is a good shot that you could place this Prime USA bat in the hands of a hitter aged 7-to-12-years-old and they will enjoy swinging it!

Louisville Slugger has been making bats for generations and they know the value of a confident customer. To allow you to have confidence in their products, they offer a twelve (12) month manufacturer’s warranty period on this bat.

Aquille's "new" bat Kee Bradford Robinson Parent

Pros: My son recently turned 11 years old and was looking for a "new" bat for Petaluma National LL ... This was the bat he choose ... The bat was shipped and delivered next day as requested and he got to use his new bat the next game ... Aquille has hit 8-11 no 10 RBI and no strike outs ... The bat was a huge psychological boost and has been nothing but HOT!!! I would say his confidence and hitting have improved greatly !!! The bat looks amazing too !!! We will see the durability over the season ...

Cons: $350.00 !!! WOW!!! times have changed :)

Questions and Answers

Have a question about the Louisville Slugger Prime -10 USA Baseball Bat: WBL2536010? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

Trying to compare this bat to an Easton ADV 360. I see this bat is only drop 10 and Easton has a drop 8 as well. Thoughts on which one has the best pop for a 12 yr old? Curtis
Due to the barrel thickness and performance limitations put in place for the USA bats, the pop will directly correlate with the amount of bat speed a hitter can generate. For a 12 year old, our general recommendation would be a -10 bat, like the Louisville Slugger Prime -10 USA Baseball Bat: WBL2536010. If the hitter is stronger than his/her peers, then bumping up to a -8 bat can certainly be beneficial as the hitter will have more weight to throw into the ball. This could certainly help improve batted ball distance over a -10 bat.

In the hands of a good 11 yo hitter, will the Prime perform significantly better than the Omaha? If yes, how and why? Thanks. Mike
No it will not perform significantly better due to the USA stamp and regulations of the bats.
Ryan
My son is 14 years old, can he use this bat? Size 32 inch? Jen
No, the Louisville Slugger Prime -10 USA Baseball Bat: WBL2536010 would not be a good bat for a 14 year old to use.
Cameron
The VCX connection on the bat seems to be loose. Is this suppose to be like that? Kyle
The connection point design on the Louisville Slugger Prime -10 USA Baseball Bat: WBL2536010 will allow for independent movement between the barrel & handle. This controls vibration and allows for unmatched feel upon contact with a baseball.

What size is good for a 12 year old? Anthony
The correct length to the Louisville Slugger Prime -10 USA Baseball Bat: WBL2536010 for a 12 year old player would depend on the player's height and weight.

How does the barrel profile compare between this and the LS Select? I’m considering these two LS bats or an Easton ADV for my 9 year old (28” or 29”) and 11 year old (30” or 31”). Are the swing weight/balance considerably different between the different models in the same sizes? Greg
All three bats feature similar barrel construction with all of them being either two or three piece composites. The LS Select will swing the heaviest though, and the LS Select bat has also recieved the most positive feedback from users.
Leeah
My son loves his Solo but is outgrowing it? How would this compare? Would it have as much pop? Janine
The Louisville Slugger Prime -10 USA Baseball Bat: WBL2536010 is a two-piece, all composite, bat and also features a balanced swing weight, like the Solo. The Prime will offer better vibration control on miss hits and, assuming the player's bat speed does not change by going to a heavier bat, the performance with the Prime is likely to be slightly better.

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.
