Pros: This bat is for any kind of hitter, my son is 12 years old and he use this bat for his batting practice like, coach and live BP, he says that this bat feels like a drop -5.
Cons: None so far.
Breaks easily JD Parent
Pros: Nice pop in the three at bats you have before it breaks
Cons: $60 per at bat
Bat Broke Immediately Tony Player
Pros: The few times I swung it before it broke felt pretty good, but I never got to try it out properly.. Bought the bat long before I used it, awful mistake, it broke immediately and I'm out $175. Extremely disappointed as money is tight and I splurged on something I hoped to have awhile.
Cons: It broke Immediately!
Better buy more than one Greg Kearns Parent
Pros: Feels good. Nice pop.
Cons: Durability is horrible. Second Old Hickory that just doesn’t hold up. Arenado model made it three tournaments. This one made it 3 games into the first tourney. Ready to switch bat companies unfortunately.
mike trout old hickory bat rick thompson Parent
Pros: lots of pop if you hit it on the sweet spot.
Cons: sweet spot is very small.
Better results Coach John Coach
Pros: My son started swinging wooden bat at Perfect Game tournament and showcases about 9 months ago. He has a Marucci Pujois model. He hit ok on a scale of 1-10 he was a 5. With his BBCOR bat he was a high 8. He had the Old Hickory bat on display because we are from CA and likes Trout. 2 months ago being a little frustrated with hitting wood he pulled the bat down and gave it a try. He was still smashing with his BBCOR bat. Low and behold he started smashing with the Old Hickory. Same size as the Marucci 33' about 20ft-30ft longer more pop off the bat. Granted there are kids on are team who use the Marucci and smash. He likes the bat hit a HR in AZ this last weekend with it. I didn't think there was much of a difference with maple wood bats but now I believe there is.
Cons: Stings on miss hit added a bat grip helped out a lot
Broke on 4th at bat BD player
Pros: None
Cons: squared up a ball on the barrel l, and the bat broke in half. Very disappointing.
Broke 3 in a row SLH parent
Pros: Felt like good bats. Enjoyed using them while they lasted.
Cons: Broke 3 of these bats in 2 months. Good bad if they lasted longer than a couple games.
Barrell delaminated on impact Sindy Harum parent
Pros: Great finish.
Cons: The barrell exploded on three of these. Not one of these bats lasted through a series. One exploded in the first game it was used in.
Best wood bat ever Quentravious Crossford player
Pros: Everything is great about the bat in my opinion. Its better than marucci wood bats and I've had three of them. Old hickory has great pop!!!
Cons: None
great handling carlos pandolfo player
Pros: the 33" allows me to stay back on the ball, and drive it to RF. excellent pop on balls i get around on.
Cons: none yet
Broke is less than a week Greg Jones parent
Pros: Nice balance.
Cons: Sounded strange from the very first hit. Seriously took less than 200 swings and it broke in less than a week. Never had a cracked bat in less than a week. Company has no warranty even when explained that it sounded strange from first hit.
ehh. wouldnt buy again J.M201 player
Pros: balanced, smooth through the zone.
Cons: anyone who hits primarly with wood knows some bats miss the mark. i unfortunatley recieved a soft bat. no pop what so ever. i was dissapointed, but it happens. end of the bat chipped off from tossing it after a single (explains the durability rating). this bat peaked my intrest, tried it, and wasnt for me at the end of the day. definitley sticking prefer marucci, dinger, or victus.
great bat cjBB player
Pros: great pop, great feel, looks awesome
Cons: the only thing i could think of is its not the ideal contact bat cause if the slight endload but other than that great bat

excellent bat Cruz other
Pros: excellent pop, weight, and balance. this maple bat is as hard as a bamboo bat with a wider sweet spot. I own several types of bats and this is my favorite one; the rawlings velo is very similar to this bat in performance and durability.

GOOD BAT Ryan Valintine player
Pros: If you know how to hit with a strong good swing,then this bat is the best I've had it for 2 YEARS and I never broke.And if you know me my average of hitting is 300-250 feet and I'm a hard hitter.But it never broke and the Mike Trout model is great for a strong person it's a little heavy for me on the barrel BUT STILL 10/10.Its only heavy with no batting gloves.
Cons: Just like I said in the pros it a little heavy but if you have batting gloves it's not a problem.
boom bat ettman43 player

Cons: none
mo
Pros: old hickory is great and mike trout uses it so it has to be good.
Cons: none.
Awesome The Pride player
Pros: I got this bat straight from Old Hickory for Christmas. I have used both the Marrucci Utley and Pujols models but find that they broke fairly quickly. This bat however, seems to be durable and has great feel. Extremely well balanced.
Cons: Can't find a single con. If you can't hit well with this than you can't hit.
Among the best wood bats on the market Eric player
Pros: This bat has an excellent feel to it. The C243 cut traditionally has a power hitter's end load and it feels particularly good on this bat. The quality of the bat feels professional grade and the durability seems to prove the quality true. It has outstanding pop as the ball jumps off the sweet spot. When you square a fastball with this bat, you get that feeling you just did damage. As a fan of Marucci, Sam Bat and Louisville Slugger, I was more than pleasantly surprised to see Old Hickory produce such a quality product. If you understand the difference between quality wood bats and cheap ones, you already understand that these bats cost a decent chunk of change. You get what you pay for here. It's clear to me why this brand is becoming popular among many professional hitters. I'll be purchasing another soon.
Cons: If you can't hit with this bat, it's not the bat, it's you.
great bat matt5 player
Pros: beautiful bat, great pop, huge sweet spot and totally good looking and great durability. overall great bat!
Cons: none
m Alika player
Pros: Best Wood Bat. Very Balanced with a lot of POP
Cons: Zero
ehhh datdudebp player
Pros: weighted perfectly. nice sweet spot.
Cons: Broke it after a month in the first game i played in. Not too happy.
nick
Pros: nicely balance has so much pop over all amazing bat
Cons: the barrel could be a little bigger and the handle is finished so if your hands are sweating or wet the bat slides out your hand
C-love
Pros: Great feel, nice balance, lots of pop off the bat.
Cons: Wish they made a bone rubbed model.
David
Pros: My level of play is a high level wood bat only Semi-Pro League. This bat is the best I have ever used. I have been using a Marucci Chase Utley model and own a Marucci Pujols bat as well. The Mike Trout Old Hickory has more pop than both and is by far the most balanced bat I have ever used. The ball jumps off the bat and has a huge sweet spot.
Cons: None!
Will Ryan NJ
Pros: Solid well made bat. Has nice feel. Most of the time I don't feel the contact. Ball flows or jumps off the bat. Nice bat. Pro grade.
Cons:
Stevie
Pros: great bat no complaints nothing at all. great balance good job old hick!
Cons: NOPE
