I noticed that the description says that this bat is end-loaded. Can you give me additional information about this point? Is it like the old DeMarinis' that had all of the weight in the end? Keith
Yes, the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League Baseball Bat: (SL15X35) will incorporate a slight end-load. Therefore, it means it will have added weight towards the end of the barrel. DeMarini has also created models with a similar weight distribution as well (more top heavy). Generally, an end-load tends to be a feature preferred by power hitters.
Merritt
Is this a good bat? Where are the reviews from previous customers? jackie
The **PRE-BOOK** 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) is a brand new bat. It has not hit the market yet. That is why there are no reviews. It should have the same swing feel and performance as the 2014 version.
Brandon
I am 13, 5'10 and weigh 175 pounds what size bat do you recommend. Also, would you recommend this bat or one of the new 2015 DeMarini bats(I am a power hitter). Arob
Based on your height and weight, we recommend a 32" 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35). Since you are a power hitter, the XL3 is an excellent choice, due to the end loaded swing weight as well as the one-piece design. Of the new DeMarini bats, the model that features an end loaded swing weight, is the OVERLORD. The OVERLORD features a two-piece design, with a composite handle and alloy barrel. Both are high performance models to choose from, it will truly depend on your preference of a one-piece or a two-piece bat.
Tessa
Does this bat have the USSSA 1.15 stamp on it? Arob
Yes, the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) features the 1.15 BPF stamp on it. Here is a link to a picture of it: http://images.justbats.com/images/products/item-ea15-21224-4l.jpg
Tessa
What is the difference between the 2014 and 2015? ag
The biggest difference between the 2014 and 2105 Easton XL3 is going to be that the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: (SL15X35) incorporates a new type of alloy called HyperLite Matrix Alloy. This material is designed to increase pop, durability, and help take player performance to the next level.
Merritt
Will the 2015 XL3 have similar pop to the 2015 XL1? noahnator
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: (SL15X35) incorporates a different type of material called HyperLite Alloy. Alloy material is very hot out of the wrapper and does not require a break-in. However, the composite material used in the XL1 will require a break-in. Once broken in, this material will be able to produce significant power as well, and will continually increase in performance over its lifetime.
Merritt
Are they going to make the XL3 in a BBCOR version? mike
At this time, the 2015 Easton XL3 BBCOR has not been released. We are unsure as to when or if Easton is producing this model.
Brandon
Are they going to make the XL3 in BBCOR? mike
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) will not be made in a BBCOR this year. The 2015 Easton S3Z ZCORE Baseball Bat (BB15S3Z) has replaced the S3 and XL3. The S3Z has an extended barrel like the 2014 XL3 and has a balanced swing weight like the 2014 S3.
Jason
Does this require a break-in period? tanner
No. The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) has an alloy barrel that will not need to be broken in.
Patrick
How end loaded is this model compared to previous models and the new xl1? Brett pitzer
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) is going to have an extremely similar end loaded feel as previous models and the Easton XL1.
Tom
I am 5'7" and 130 lbs. What size should I get in this bat? Since it is end loaded should I get a smaller size or stick to my recommended size? Brett
Based on your height and weight, we suggest a 32" model in the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35). If you already have good bat speed, then you should plan on sticking with the suggested 32" model. If you are looking to increase your bat speed, then you should consider stepping down to a 31" model.
Jason
I'm 11yoa, 5'3, 130 and currently swing the 2014 XL3 30/21 with no trouble at all. I want to get closer to a drop 3 to get ready for MS ball, what size should I get? Luke
Since you still have 3-4 seasons of baseball before you go into high school, I would recommend going with a -8 model before moving all the way up to the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35). The XL3 is not actually made in a -8 swing weight so I would recommend looking at the 2014 Easton XL1 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL14X18) or the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -8 Baseball Bat (SL15X18). These bats are both made in a -8 model.
Ben
In your opinion which bat is more durable; 2015 Easton XL3 or 2015 DeMarini Voodoo? Tyler
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) uses hyperlite alloy which has significantly improved its durability; whereas, the 2015 DeMarini Voodoo OVERLORD FT Senior League Baseball Bat (DXVD5) uses X12 alloy, which creates more power. Based on durability alone, I would suggest going with the XL3 versus the VooDoo OVERLORD.
Liz
My 14 year old is a power hitter who has used a 2-piece composite DiMarini the past few seasons. Will end-loaded increase his home runs? He has very strong hands and maybe didn't need a more balanced bat? Is this s 2-piece bat. Dad
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) is an end loaded bat that is a THT100 1-peice full alloy. I think an end loaded bat will be great for your son who is a power hitter.
Frankie
I am 13 years old, 5'4" and a contact hitter. Would this be the right bat for me? What bat would you recommend for me? hayden
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) could be used at your size and age. Also, the 2015 DeMarini Vexxum Senior League -5 would swing even more balanced. It would be a great choice too!
Brandon
My 13 year old son is not big, but he is strong. He can handle a balanced -3 BBCOR bat, which is required for school ball, pretty well. I am considering this -5 USSSA stamped bat for summer ball because of the relaxed standards. I am trying to determine if this bat, with its slight end-load, would be better than a -5 bat that is balanced? H-man.217
If he can use a -3 BBCOR model and is able to swing it well, going with an end-loaded -5 like the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) would be a good option. The end-loaded weight will help produce more power and the heavier feel will keep him used to a feel closer to what that -3 is like during school ball.
Patrick
Hi, I am 14 years old. I am not very strong. Would this bat be right for me? I have a drop ten. The size is 32/22. It is really light. Dmoney
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) will be more of an end loaded bat. If you need a BBCOR bat at your age the Easton S3Z ZCORE BBCOR would be perfect. It is very light and balanced. If you are looking for a balanced -5 size bat, the Easton MAKO TORQ would be awesome!
Brandon
My son is 14 and weighs 80.4 pounds and he is not very strong. He is very tall and he swings a 32 inch 22 ounce bat. Would this be the right bat? Cash money
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) would be a nice option for a player of that age. It would be a good bat to use to help transition toward a BBCOR certified model for high school play.
Patrick
Would you recommend the Easton XL3 -5 or the Easton XL1 -5? Snake
Both the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) is going to be an alloy bat and the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X15) is going to be a composite bat. Neither material has been proven to out perform the other, so it is just personal preference.
Frankie
What is the difference between the -9 and the drop -9? Other than weight tb
-9 and drop -9 are the same thing. It would be the length to weight ratio which is found by taking the number of inches the bat is in length and subtracting the number of ounces it weighs. The difference would be the drop weight or length to weight ratio which is represented by the minus sign and a number. The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) is a -5 meaning that a 30 inch model of this bat would weigh 25 ounces, for example.
Patrick
If I play 13U travel ball and swing a 32 inch 22 ounce bat but I am 5 foot 5 and 157 pounds would the XL series be right for me or should I go to the S series? bubba
Whether you should go with an XL model like the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) or a model in the S or Speed Series would be based on what feel you prefer. The XL3 would have an end-loaded feel making it a bit tougher to swing but possibly producing more power if you are able to swing it with good bat speed. The S Series will be more balanced and allow for better bat speed due to a lighter swing weight. Both are nice options.
Patrick
What is the difference between this model and last year's model? TZ
The difference between the Easton XL3 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL14X35) and the Easton XL3 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL14X35) would be the alloy material used in the construction. The Hyperlite Matrix Alloy is an upgrade from the previous model year in terms of durability and the maximum size of the sweet spot.
Patrick
Did they make this bat in BBCOR? mike
Easton did not make a BBCOR .50 certified version of this 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35).
Ben
Is this bat allowed to play in Junior/Senior League International baseball? baseballplayer29
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) will be legal since it has a BPF 1.15 USSSA stamp.
Allison
What is the difference between the XL1 and the XL3 ? Does it feature a big barrel? baseball studd
the 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) is a one-piece all alloy. The Easton XL1 Senior League features a two-piece full composite design. The XL and XL1 Senior League models both feature the big barrel.
John
Which is more end loaded the 2014 Easton XL3 or the 2015 Easton XL3? lee
The 2014 and 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) will feature the same end load.
Frankie

Is this bat a composite bat? Our league allows composite handle only. Xan

Patrick
My son turned 13 in July. He is 4' 11" and weighs 85 lbs. He will be playing Middle School baseball in the spring. Bat requirement for this league is a drop 5. He is a contact hitter. Would the 30"/25oz Easton XL3 benefit him more than the XL1? Rodney
For someone with your son's height and weight, I would recommend using a 30" baseball bat. The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: SL15X35 and the 2015 Easton XL1 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: SL15X15 are both an end loaded model which tends to be more suited for power hitters. If you're looking for a more balanced bat for a contact hitter I would recommend looking at the 2015 Easton MAKO TORQ Senior League Baseball Bat: SL15MK5T. This bat is highly rated and does come in a 30", -5 model. I have included a link to the bat for you.

John
is this bat heavey im getting the -9 version and is that one heavey and what is the diffrence bettwen this and the s2 2016 wich are the diffrences chino
The 2015 Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35), when compared to the 2016 Easton S2 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL16S210), is going to feel heavier as it is an end-loaded swing-weight. The S2 will be a two-piece balanced designed bat with a black carbon composite handle with an alloy barrel; the XL3 will be a one-piece, fully alloy construction with an extended barrel.
Cameron
My 13 year old son is 5'8" and weighs 125. Would you go with the 31" or 32"? He plays 14U travel and will play middle school baseball next month. Liz
Based upon your son's height and weight, I would recommend using a 32" Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: SL15X35.
John P.
My son is 5 feet and 120 lbs. What size do you recommend? John
Based on your son's height and weight, we would recommend getting the Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: SL15X35 in a 30 inch 25 ounce model.
Cameron
My son is 5"5" 150 lbs. He is 12.5 years old and a 7th grader on his MS team. Should I go with the 32" for use this year and next? Jbo52
Based upon your player's height and weight, I would make a general recommendation of going with a 32" option of the Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35). As long as he can handle the end-loaded 27 oz weight, I think that size option of this bat would work just fine for you guys for the next couple of years before moving to BBCOR bats.
Ben
My son is 5 ft and weighs 100 lbs. What do you recommend? baseball22
Based upon your player's height and weight, I would recommend going with a Youth Big Barrel/Senior League bat in the 30" length. This Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat (SL15X35) will only be available in a 32"/27 oz size which is a little larger than what I would recommend for your player. I might suggest something more in the size of 30"/25 oz or 31"/26 oz size.
Ben
My son is 5'5" 121 lbs and 12 years old. What size bat does he need? My other son is 4' 60 lbs and is 9 years old, what size bat for him? bats
Based on your first sons height and weight, we suggest a 32" model in the Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: SL15X35. Based on your other sons height and weight, we suggest a 27" bat.

The Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: SL15X35 is a big barrel bat. It has a 2 5/8" barrel diameter.
Angelique
Would this bat be too much for a 5' 7" 120 pound kid? Gianni
Based upon your player's height and weight, I would recommend using a 32" Easton XL3 Senior League -5 Baseball Bat: SL15X35. As to whether it will be too much or not, that is going to depend entirely upon if your player prefers an end loaded swing weight or a balanced bat. This particular XL3 will feature an end loaded swing weight which is typically preferred by a power hitter.
John P.
