Pros: I am letting the cat out of the bag. This is the best bat for 2013. This composite bat blows the CF5 out of the water. Ton of pop!
Cons: A little pricey, but if you are going to spend $299 buy this bat
Pros: GREAT BAT HAS GOOD POP .GOT THIS BAT ON A RETURN FROM LOUISVILLE .LOUISVILLE HAS GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE.
Cons: NONE
Pros: Felt weird at first, even to me... an amateur ball player... like the knob was heavier than the barrel. The bat swings very light and has a great feel when in contact with the ball.
Cons: Nothing yet... after 4 months.
Pros: Looks nice. Didn't get a chance to see what it could do.
Cons: My son used it once hitting 25 balls and it started rattling inside.
Pros: Great pop. Great looking bat. Has my son swinging with more confidence than ever!
Cons: Makes a funny sound when hit on plate or tossed on the ground. Almost sounds like something is loose or wrong with the bat. This does not affect the pop or hitting with the bat.
Pros: Good pop..Good feel with light swing!
Cons: We did just as suppose to with a composite bat as far as breaking it in....Bat was well broken in and never used in cold weather HOWEVER after just under 2 months my 13 year old shattered the barrel where the handle is joined together!
Pros: Good pop...No vibration!
Cons: Very poor quality!! Bat was broken in by hitting 250 plus balls off tee and soft toss as required!! Never used in cold weather BUT bat broke just below rubber ring on barrel around 10th game..average 3 at bats per game so it lasted around 30 at bats! ...Recieved replacement today through warranty but have NO confidence this bat wont do the same.. Its louisville sluggers fault NOT..JUST BATS
Pros: This bat is just the right size in between for smaller boys that have to move up to the 14U age bracket. My 13 year old loves it and he's smaller than his 11 year old brother. Has good enough pop to send it to the grass but not so light that you lose power against a pitcher.
Cons: So far with about 5 games on it we've only seen problems with the paint chipping toward the end of the bat and I believe that's just do to the harsh nature of 12-14 year old boys. Honestly that paint hasn't affected anything about the bat.
Pros: The pop is great straight out of the box. The break in time was very short.
Cons: Broke within a half of a season.
Pros: I bought this bat for my 8 yr old son. I was surprised by the amount of pop right out of the wrapper. Great value at the current pricing! Bought another one for a team bat!
Cons: None so far!
Pros: Love this bat we followed the direction on the break in and the bat is awesome. We've got several bat and my son just use this bat he said it's got the pop. Looks great hits great sounds great and it's just a awesome bat.
Cons: Nothing cant complain about nothing.
Pros: After 350 hits to break in, now my son had tee practice and coach pitched to him the ball comes off the bat fast. I love the pop 20 oz feels light.
Cons: The con is the bat is for my boy and not me..
Pros: Great color, feels great in hands light thru swing n has great pop. Ball comes off bat very fast. My boy is 7 and you can see the difference. Great price and my boy loves it. Have hit over 350 balls with it for break in n my boy has over 100 and love the pop it has.
Cons: It's my boys and not for me..

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.
