What are the differences, if any, between this bat and last year's Slugger Prime ONE -12 USSSA bat? Looking for a new bat for our 7 year old son as his Easton S450 has a few dents in it. Jeff
The only change on the Louisville Slugger Prime ONE -12 USSSA Baseball Bat: WTLSLP1X12S20, when compared to the Louisville Slugger Prime ONE 919 -12 USSSA Baseball Bat: WTLSLP119X12, is the colorway design.

How does this bat compare to the Solo or Prime 919? Jeff
In regard to performance, it would be hard to suggest this Louisville Slugger Prime ONE -12 USSSA Baseball Bat (WTLSLP1X12S20) over the Solo or Prime 919 as this bat does have reviews yet. I imagine it will review well, but it is hard to say at this time. In regard to build, this Prime ONE is different than thew other bats as it was a one-piece, all-composite bat. The 919 was a 2-piece, all-composite bat and the Solo is essentially a one-piece bat. If you prefer a certain design of bat, you might be able to make a decision in regard to which design you prefer the most.

Will this bat be good for my 10 year old? It says senior league? Brian
The Louisville Slugger Prime ONE -12 USSSA Baseball Bat: WTLSLP1X12S20 would be appropriate for a 10 year old. Senior league simply means that it is a USSSA bat.
Tori
My son is 9 years old 54lbs using a cat9 29/19. I was thinking about getting him a 27/15 to increase bat speed. What would you recommend? C
Personally, I would not recommend making such a large adjustment in overall bat size. I think dropping down to a 27/17 or 28/18 would be a better way for him to get some bat speed!

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.
