Pros: This bat rocks! Excellent balance and MOI - swings like a much lighter bat. Excellent pop - Rawlings is using new proprietary technology to give you maximum impact reaction. Break it in (use a sleeve and hit each BP baseball with a quarter turn - about 100 balls) and it absolutely won't disappoint. Decent sweet spot. This is a new bat & design so you won't find much info about it anywhere but it's probably the best BBCOR on the market. We tried many 2012's and expense wasn't a problem (play travel and varsity h.s. so a good stick is crucial). You're going to start seeing a lot of guys hit with this stick.
Cons: Same as with any other good bat - it's a lot of dough but you get what you pay for. Also, for me, one of the critical aspects is swing speed through the ball. Some guys may like a bat that swings heavy and this bat doesn't.
Pros: Just tried every demarini, easton, marucci, nike, and rawlings bats out yesterday. This bat was the best!! With the 5150 velo and 5150 in a close second place. This bat just flat out does work, for a power hitter that hit's a lot of line, drives, sharp, singles, and gappers, this bat was a dream. The graphics on the bat are also great. It would be a disservice to your on-field preformance if you were not to buy this bat.
Cons: Price is a little bit steep, but I got a great deal on it
Pros: Great Balance. Because the weight is nearer to the handle, it allows for great bat speed. This can make up for some of the lack of pop that any BBCOR always has. My player is getting good distance with this bat. Also has nice graphics.
Cons: None with the bat itself, but it is expensive.
Pros: goodpop incredable
Cons:
Pros: This bat is great! It is one of the few equally balanced bbcor bats on the market. This has amazing pop. You need to hit about 200 balls either in soft toss or in the cage before you take into live hitting. When you hit the 200 balls it its awesome.
Cons: Absolutely none!
Pros: More pop than any BBCOR bat that i've used. Finally found a live one.
Cons: The grip seems a little cheap. Not a big deal, I like to customize the grip anyway.
Pros: great balance good sweet spot
Cons: none
Pros: Awesome bat. Before BBCOR rules I was always a demarini person but i tried this bat and couldnt keep my hands off. The best quality of this bat is how evenly balanced it is, which is something that not many BBCOR bats have. The pop is awesome, too. I could hardly tell the difference in pop from my old bat when i square one up. It definitely doesnt feel dead like other BBCORs. I would definitely recommend over any other bat so far.
Cons: Playing high school and travel ball can get really expensive, so my parents weren't ecstatic about paying for this, however whether or not you can get a discount on this bat, it is worth it.
Pros: Im so speechless about this bat that the least I can so is this bat is BO$$. Everything about it is awesome.
Cons: A bit pricey, but definitely worth every penny. You get what you pay for.
Pros: This bat is awesome!!! I swung it at a Scheels store and the 32" felt lighter than my 31"/28 oz easton typhoon! i haven't hit with it yet, but i will review it again after i do.
Cons: 199.99 is kinda expensive but the balance on this bat is worth paying for!
Pros: this is a great bat. one of my friends bought it last year and i fell in love and bought one for myself. tons of pop and little sting.
Cons: my friend and i both have had the end cap of our bats crack off. My bat was used in three practices and one game before this happened. a bit disapointed with that.
Pros: Ive been using this bat for summerball and it is a great bat, a ton of pop more then you would expect out of a BBCOR. I used a different bat during highshool and dident hit as good.
Cons: A little expensive but worth it
Pros: So glad I got this bat! best bat ive ever had. great pop and balance. Don't find bats much better than this. If you hate top heavy bat like me then this is perfect. I've had mine for a year and once I want to go to a longer bat, I'm buying this again.
Cons: Price isn't the best but so worth it, I got a good deal on it so try to find one. When I got it it with 299, now its 199 so its not that bad anymore.
Pros: Double the flex double the distance, really good but still think that the mainly red 5150 is better than this and all other bats.
Cons: Takes a little bit to get used to...

About the Brand
Rawlings is a major manufacturer of competitive team sports equipment and apparel for baseball, basketball, and football, as well as licensed MLB, NFL, and NCAA retail products. Rawlings is a major supplier to professional, collegiate, interscholastic, and amateur organizations worldwide, including the Official Baseball Supplier to Major League Baseball.
The first real innovation in glove making occurred in 1912 when Rawlings Sporting Goods Company introduced the "Sure Catch" glove, which was "endorsed by leading players all over the country." The Sure Catch was a one-piece glove with sewn-in finger channels and looked better suited for a duck's foot than a man's hand. Catchers' mitts used at the time were large and bulky with a single leather thong passing for a web.
In 1920, Bill Doak, a journeyman pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals, approached Rawlings with an idea for improving the baseball glove from a mere protective device to a genuine aid in fielding. The "Bill Doak" model was so revolutionary that it stayed in Rawlings' line until 1953. Its key feature was a multi-thong web laced into the first finger and thumb, which created for the first time in baseball's young life, a natural pocket.
In 1925, Rawlings unveiled a three-fingered fielder's glove, and ten years later improved the Bill Doak model with a two-piece leather web. At the same time, the "T" web became a rage for first basemen's mitts. The pocket underwent a pronounced change in 1941 when the Trapper Mitt, also known as the Claw, appeared. The "Deep Well" pocket was so unique that Rawlings quickly patented it. The design was improved in 1950 by adding a leather piece across the top. Another significant creation occurred in 1948 with the three-fingered Playmaker. A five-fingered fielder's model, with all fingers laced together, provided greater pocket control.
The six-fingered Trap-Eze evolved in the 1960's. In more recent years, Rawlings produced the Fastback design, which gives a glove a snugger fit, greater extension, and overall control. The Holdster is a slot through which a finger can be extended for additional protection from impacts on the pocket. Then, there is the Edge-U-Cated Heel with its extended U-shaped lacing and the Pro H Web and much-copied Basket Web.
Some of Rawlings's more recent glove innovations also include the unique Spin-Stopper design which reduces ball spin when the ball hits the glove, and the Cantilever glove design feature that provides a cushioned area between the hand and the glove's palm area. In all, Rawlings has produced and patented more functionally innovative glove features and designs than that of any other glove manufacturer. The result is that the modern baseball glove is much larger, more comfortable, better padded, and made to last far longer than its ancestors. It is not uncommon to see today's Major League players wearing the same Rawlings glove they wore during their college playing days. In fact, Rawlings is the #1 glove in the major leagues. Rawlings maintains about 65 models of baseball and softball mitts and gloves in its line. The prototypes of virtually all of them have been field-tested by professionals before entering a sporting goods dealer's inventory.
