Pros:
Great bat! My daughter is 16. She's a power hitter and usually gets some good hits. The bat was good to go right out of the box. She loves the pop and hit three home runs the first weekend she used it! Cons:The only thing I would change is the white grip. It was dirty and dingy after a couple uses.

LBO's Dad
Pros:
Since we bought our first, the 2011 Xeno, we've been extremely pleased with the line. After a very successful year with the Xeno 2012, we moved up to the onex last year. My daughter hit a ball 40 feet further than her previous 220 ft shots. She got her first hit as varsity player with the 2013 replacement for the onex. She absolutely did not want to give up the onex. The bat endured repeated poundings by her and a friend without breaking. She's very happy with the 2013 Xeno.
Her 34" 26oz bat swings much lighter and feels propely balanced. There's no vibration even when the temps drop near the low temp end for the bat.
She loves the sound.
She's looking forward to testing the 2014 Onex when she gets one this July 2013!!! We can't to see what inovations it will bring to the games. It will be her fifth bat.
Cons:None!!!

socal softball
Pros:
This an update on the Xeno. I am purchasing a second bat for my daughter. This time around she is getting a -9 (34/25), at her request. She used her last one approximately 2 years and a couple odd months,before she broke it during a game. She will not use any other bat except the Xeno.
I would like to again advise parents, do not purchase this bat unless your daughter is playing at high school/elite level. You'll be wasting your time and money doing this. My daughter has been using composites like this for 5 years now. I'll be the first one to tell you, I wasted my time and money going this route. It wasn't till she started getting lessons at 14 that things sunk in and she started understanding the benefits of the Xeno. Cons:none

This bat has amazing pop and has a large sweet spot. The "breaking glass" sound the bat makes is sure to turn heads. Cons:This is a warm weather bat, it loses some of its explosiveness in cool weather.

Pros:
It hits almost as hard as the 201w Cons:I had my bat for four weeks (about thirteen games including two tournaments, averaging three at bats a game so no more than thirty-nine at bats) and my bat broke in half hitting the pitcher at my first plate appearance so the durability of the bat is not as high as the old xeno from 2012 (which lasted me for a full season before cracking but never fully breaking in half

Pros:
This bat is amazing. I was first skeptical of louisville slugger after having my oneX recalled when I saw nothing wrong with the bat I was smacking home runs left and right and had no problem. This bat proved it was just as good and I highly recommend getting it. I got this bat as a replacement for free from the oneX. Cant wait to get my free xeno and oneX 2014 Cons:None

Pros:
Hot out of the wrapper! Took hits that were just hitting the grass to almost hitting the fence! Cons:Bought it 3/11/13 and it broke today 4/23/13. For $300 I expected this bat to last at least 2 seasons. Extremely disappointed in the durability!!!! This bat has been discontinued so we'll see how the warranty is going to work....

My daughter swung this bat "TWICE"...the first swing was a hard single. Her next at bat with the bases loaded, she swung the bat for the second time and thinking we had an extra base hit, it broke in half! No consolation to the team or my daughter! We had high hopes for it after having great success with the first Xeno. :(

Pros:
Hot out of the box, attractive graphics. My 13 year old had 2 of the 2012 models in 32" 22 oz. & 33" 23 oz. Lots of power, lots of bat speed, lots of batting practice, and lots of games on them. Love the product and results. Cons:Bought a 2013 model on Saturday Feb. 23, broke in half on second at bat Sunday the 24th. Sent bat back on Feb 27 and got a receipt of delivery on March 1. On March 9, got a "denied" delivery notice. Never received packaging or bat back. Now no one wants to respond at all. Had bat for less than 24 hrs before it broke, going into the third month waiting for replacement.

Bat has the same Xeno cracking sound as the previous years. I personally like it. The bat was hot right out of the wrapper. The ball flies off this thing. My daughter loves it and all the kids with the black Xenos are jealous now cause they love the new design. Cons:I just bought this bat for my daughter and now I want to get her a OneX and my wife is gonna kill me if I do. I guess I'll wait till spring.. ;)

review by
SoCal Softball
Pros:
I researched composite bats for 3 months, before buying my daughters third bat since she was 13. By far this is the best bat she ever had. I have taken her to the bat wars events by the manufacturers, where she has tried 15-20 bats. This is by far the best bat she has ever swung. If your daughter is still playing rec ball, this is not the bat for her. The swing is the key to this bat, if the daughter is not taking lessons then you're wasting your money on this type of bat. To get the most out of this bat, the player must have a disciplined, consistent swing. The older and bigger your daughter is, the better this bat is for her. It is more suited for older, bigger players. The example is my daughter, who is 16 and 5' 9' tall weighing 129 lbs. She swings the biggest, heaviest bat Louisville makes for this model. Very pricey bat. Bless you parents who back your daughters with this type of equipment. I hope this helps in your decision. Cons:None.

I purchased the 2013 -10 XENO due to my 8 Year Old daughters 2012 -11 CF5 busted. The XENO has great POP and the attention getting sound of a XENO. Cons:Bat is not Nearly as balanced as a CF5, it has more of an End-Load Feel. This Bat is awesome, but will require some work to get back to a smooth Swing. Its all about Wrist Strength with the smaller girls with Bats that are not "Balanced".
