Pros: nice pop, nice grip, awesome feel, and just full on out amaizing!
Cons: nothing
Pros: I got a 30" 18 oz and loves it! He made a triple on the first game and did awesome in the batting cages. I definitely prefer this bat.
Cons: No cons awesome bat.
Pros: Feels light, no sting, great pop. My 8-yr-old has never hit this consistently with any bat including the Mako so he loves this bat.
Cons: None after a few days of hitting in the cage.
Pros: I'm Hitting the fence with no problem now I'm in a travel team
Cons: Nothing so far
Pros: great pop straight outta box...even better after a small break in period
Cons: none
Pros: hit homerun with it
Cons: none
Pros: My son has used this bat since it was first Released hit the Fence @ 205 as a 10 year old.. First 2 at bats, only used in weekend tournament.. only hit it maybe 10 times before that to get a feel for it. So with no break in time on it was hot out of wrapper.
Cons: However He was playing a scrimmage game and took a inside pitch and snapped the bat in half about 8" above the Grip.. So now we wait for the Replacement. As our state tourney arrives..
Pros: If you HAVE to use a big barrel bat because everyone else is doing it and it is the only way to make it an even playing field, then this is the bat to get, At least for a 7-9 year old. The advantage to this bat is that it is one of the only bats on the market that offer a 17oz 29" combo, or -12. This gives a great advantage for a young kid to maintain their bat speed. The Louisville Slugger gives you the best overall product for half the price of the Combat.
Cons: The sound is a bit odd but much better than the Easton Mako.
Pros: These are great bats. I have a smaller son 8 years old 4' 1" 48 pounds so we bought a 27" 15oz he loves it. When we brought it to the first scrimmage game for our tournament team all the other kids loved it too. Now the team has 5 more of all sizes. All of us Coaches see a noticeable difference in how the ball is jumping off the bat compared to the other bats we were using.
Cons: None Yet
Pros: Great pop, light weight makes for great bat speed
Cons: This is the fourth Catalyst we have bought, and three of the four have broken at about the year mark. This one, however, broke in less than a month. We bought this to replace his last bat that had just broken. The warrantee process takes so long, that we had to buy another to finish the season. This one didn't last at all.
Pros: great bat! has lots of pop. 100% satisfied after the first 2 weeks!
Cons: none
Pros: Short break in Pop right off the start My son blasted a triple off the wall in the first AB and then another triple in his second AB.
Cons: None yet
Pros: My 8 year old uses it for coach pitch, and its soooo much better than the Mako's he'd been using the past 3 seasons. Lot of pop, sounds good, and feels solid.
Cons: None so far.
Pros: has great pop and the grip os great for kids
Cons: not much
Pros: Light weight, nice designs
Cons: hardly any pop. maybe it still need to be broken in.
Pros: Awesome bat with pop.
Cons: nothing is bad about this bat
Pros: Its a nice looking bat and it swings well. Like the balance feel b
Cons: It has no pop at all. Other boys were excited that my son got a new bat and everyone wanted to try it out. once everyone used it a couple of times , it just doesn't have any pop to it. Even the other kids said that the bat is a dud. So we over paid for this bat hoping for a good balance bat that had some pop. Wouldn't recommend this bat

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.
