Rawlings Quatro Pro BBCOR Baseball Bat: BBZQ3

Pros: My son has the Rawlings Glowstick. Didn't necessarily need a new bat but I decided to buy him the Cherry Bomb. Atfer breaking in the bat with roughly 250 good hits this bat hits bombs. Love the sound it makes when you smack the ball. It's almost like a wood bat sound. The Glowstick rains supreme but right now it's a tie.

Cons: None so far.

Pros: Once you get the Quatro in your hands, you will feel a little underwhelmed since you would expect a typical end loaded bat. But once broken in, this bat will exceed every expectation in feel, pop, vibration (which is practically none) and the sound off the bat is simply poetic. I used the meta, and the prime this past summer and I can definitely say confidently that this bat is up there with the best and maybe better depending on the hitter you are. The balance of this thing is something to behold. Light, powerful, and yet so powerful. Not to mention it is one of the cleanest bats I’ve ever payed my eyes on.

Cons: Not an end loaded bat-which could be a con depending on what your preference is.

Pros: As a player I have bought the new 2020 cherry bomb. It has pop right out the wrapper and one of the nicest bats I have used.

Cons: None

Pros: Doesn’t hurt hands

Cons: Feels very end loaded and when I hit a ball I can feel something shift in the barrel. It really just doesn’t explode off the bat like other bats. Maybe it’s just my bat but idk?

Pros: Great Swing Weight, feels lighter then advertised but weighted almost exact as listed on shipping scale. Broke in nice and has great pop and feel when striking balls. Gave it 5 stars on durability due to the awesome paint job not getting scratched and ball scuffs wiping off with finger pressure after playing 15 (High School & Travel Team) games with it, but time will tell on the barrel holding up. So far so good, have had three other Quartos over the years and this is right up there with the older "Glowsticks"

Cons: None yet

Pros: This bat hits nukes, although it requires a short break-in period like all other composite bats it is definitely worth it. The feel is great, barrel is huge and pop is just as good as most end loaded bats although it is balanced. This bat is very comparable to the Meta and is slightly cheaper. The bat is also absolutely beautiful in person.

Cons: Coaches occasionally pick up the bat to make sure it’s legal. Paint always looks brand new, so people are always drawn to it. Only had it for a month so I can’t ensure it’s durability but seems good so far. Because I’ve been spending so much time looking at this beautiful bat my girlfriend has started getting jealous.

Pros: Huge sweet spot, great feel. Balanced bat

Cons: None

Pros: a lot of weight in the shaft

Cons: only 2 Home runs Ugly useless (dont waste ur money) my $50 bat is better my 7th grade son broke it

Pros: Lightweight, good for smaller batters.

Cons: Bat gets pushed back when hitting off decent speed. Lasted about 2 monthes before barrel cracked and fell apart basically shattered.

Pros: Make sure to read the "Cons". This bat has a huge sweet spot and has all kinds of pop. Unfortunately, the cons (listed below) 100% outweigh the benefits.

Cons: I bought two of them for two players on my team. Both fell apart exactly the same way within the same tournament (first tournament with them.) Essentially, the shaft disconnects from the barrel and then the barrel just flops around. It is awful engineering. When you look inside the barrel there is just silicon connecting the barrel to the shaft. Clearly the engineers were never baseball players and don't understand what this thing is being used for. I am having two new bats shipped to me. Rawlings says that they were just defective but I am confident the bats weren't defective but rather the bat design that is defective. If I am wrong and the next bats hold up. I will definitely delete this post, but as of right now. I would just purchase another bat if I was to do it over again.

Pros: Beautiful color, nice, light and doesn’t hurt hands.

Cons: In less than a month; the end cap of the bat came off.

Pros: This is the best bat I have ever owned to date. I have had it for about a year and it has really helped me transition from -5 usssa and -5 usa bats to -3 bbcor. It's super light swinging and has amazing pop! I would definitely recommend it to any young players transitioning to bbcor. Also, in my opinion it's one of the best looking bats out there and doesn't have the ear-piercing sound like the Velo and other alloy bats.

Cons: Supposedly it has a short lifespan, but I haven't had any issues yet.

Pros: There are no cons my friends from 11 to 14 are hitting bombs and light and the pop on the bat is over five stars. I love it

Cons: No con

Pros: I already have another post about this bat, I just wanted to add more things as i've used it more.

Cons: I have been hitting it for about a year now and the connector piece feels like it's slowly falling apart. It makes a weird rubbery noise when it hits the ground and sometimes when you hit it, it makes jolt feeling after you hit the bat, almost as if the connector piece is moving. Also when i got it, it felt very balanced but as i've hit it for a year, it's become more end-loaded, weird. It's a really good bat but has some problems with the connector piece.

Pros: Very balanced bat. Light as a toothpick. Big sweet spot and very forgiving. My son is a smaller 13 yr old who broke his leg last fall. Was looking for a BBCOR that he could easily control through the zone at 31/28. This was the bat. Had a 29/26 Rawlings 5150 which had some pop, but even at 29in, was too end loaded for him. Loves the Quatro. Has won “Line Drive to the back of the Cage” knockout 3 times in a row in practice. Love the cherry red finish that doesn’t seem to chip or leave ball smears.

Cons: Heard of past durability issues, but solid so far for us.

Pros: Huge pop out of the plastic

Cons: Broke in less than a week of use by a high school team!

Pros: Will let you know when we get it back from Rawlings

Cons: Cap popped off after two days. Sent back to be repaired, not replaced.

Pros: Overall I love it

Cons: It broke in half

Pros: We were having wrist growth plate pain with a CAT 8 ,that went completely away with the Quatro Pro

Cons: We bought the bat just before Covid hit and did not use it early on, in total we got about 7 months of use when the bat developed a spiral crack in the barrel. Rawlings refused to cover it because it had been over a year since we purchased it

Pros: my average with this bat is 924 and I've hit about 328382 bombs with it

Cons: nothing

Pros: It has good sound and good grip.

Cons: My friend had this bat and I hit with it and I was really good. I decided that I was gonna get it because I liked it. As soon as it arrived I could feel that it wasn't the same. When you swing the connecter feels like it is moving. If you don't hit it on the sweet spot then it goes no where.

Pros: the bat had a bunch of pop right of the wrapper

Cons: bought one bat in april and the bat broke the first week we had it, just bats replaced that one with no issues but after about 2 months the replacement bat was coming apart at the connection piece. i had to send that bat to rawlings and the sent me a new bat. So far it's been a month with no issues, the third bats sounds different than the other 2 bats so hopefully it's good. this bat does have good pop

Pros: the best

Cons: nothing

Pros: Good

Cons:

Pros: Grip is nice, balanced swing, amazing sound when it hits the ball, the durability is very nice, overall one of the best bats I have ever had.

Cons: It took me a little bit to break it in.

Pros: Was good at first

Cons: Broke

Pros: Sounds beautiful. Good balance, handle is thin, looks great. It's a great stick but durability is a question mark.

Cons: After about a year of regular use, the point where the barrel meets the shaft developed a noise as though it was loosening. I sold it used at that point rather than continue to use it. It felt like it's days were numbered at that point and went with Meta for this season.

Pros: nice pop nice grips sounds nice

Cons: if you smoke a ball it will rub off on the bat and it will leave a white spot so gets dirty easily

Pros: Hits nice until it doesn't. You are lucky if bat doesn't break within weeks.

Cons: I originally purchased this bat for my 10 year son. He barely used it for 1 season and it was deemed a "dead" bat. We were under the 1 year warranty and received a new bat (after the season ended). Second season the new bat broke again (now age 11). Rawlings would not send a new replacement because per their warranty you only get 1 replacement from original purchase. For a bat costing over $300 for a 10-12 year old is ridiculous that you can't get a full season out of a bat. In my opinion Rawlings needs to stand by their product. They either need to recall this bat, update with warranty policy, or start making a quality bat. DO NOT PURCHASE unless you have money to burn.
