Best End Loaded Bat On The Market M. Doherty player

Pros: The end load is unbelievable. Insane pop, no stings on mishits, and I saw myself driving the ball with this log of a bat. Picked it up in a 34/31, I would recommend this bat to anyone seeking mass behind their swing. Mine survived a full varsity season, and she's ready for summer ball, love this bat

Cons: Nothing at all. Overall an outstanding product

What is the difference between this Z-CORE Hybrid Loaded and the 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid XL? swrhoads

This 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid Loaded BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB16ZHL) will be the same thing as the bat referred to as the 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid XL at other web sites. We have just decided to use the term "Loaded" instead of "XL" to describe the end-load on the bat.

Ben

I'm having trouble deciding between this bat and the 2015 BBCOR S1. I know the S1 is discontinued, but there are places I could find it in the size I want. I bat 2-4 in my lineup with about a .300-.320 average and an occasional home run. Speed is a big part of my game, but so is power, so I'm wondering; what do you think? Dunny

I would probably recommend the 2017 Easton Z-CORE SPEED Limited Whiteout BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB17ZSW) for you based on the style of hitter that you described. It is a very good bat and should fit you well.

Carter

How is the HYPERSKIN grip compared to the Performance Diamond grip on the 2015 S2Z (which bat has better remarks in regard to the grip)? As well, besides the grip and cosmetic differences, aren't these 2 bats the same? DH

This 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid Loaded BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB16ZHL) features the HYPERSKIN performance grip which will be thinner than the Diamond Performance Grip Featured on the S2Z. In my opinion, the HYPERSKIN gripping gets the better ratings from customers. As well, this Z-CORE Hybrid Loaded and the S2Z will feature the same barrel material and handle material. However, this Hybrid Loaded bat will feature more of an end-load compared to the S2Z.

I am a freshman in high school and I am 6'0", 200 pounds with good upper body strength. Should I go with the Hybrid XL or regular hybrid? brody

It is really going to come down to personal preference on whether or not you want the end loaded version or the balanced version. That varies on the player that is using it. If you were more of a power hitter I would recommend going with the 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid Loaded BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB16ZHL) and if you were a contact hitter I would recommend checking out the 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB16ZH). With that being said, ultimately it is going to come down to personal preference.

Carter

I am a freshman in high school and I am 5'6" and I prefer an end loaded bat because that is where I generate my power. A 32 inch bat is what I would like. What is the best choice for me? AFERN

I would recommend a 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid Loaded BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB16ZHL) in the 32"/29 ounce.

Carter

Would this be similar in swing weight to the old (2014) XL1 BBCOR? Kid needs to go up in size and trying to find something comparable to what he has been swinging and likes. MamaMia

Yes, the BB16ZHL will have an end-loaded swing weight similar to the XL1.

Kyle J.

My son is a freshman, 6'2" and 190 lbs. Does a 34" 31 oz. sound about right? He likes one piece bats but could be talked into two piece. 5mix

Based on your player's height and weight, you're right on track with that 34" 31oz. 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid Loaded BBCOR Baseball Bat: BB16ZHL.

Logan

Is this bat a -3? john

Yes, this 2016 Easton Z-CORE Hybrid Loaded BBCOR Baseball Bat (BB16ZHL) has a -3 length-to-weight ratio.

Ben

I am a 6'1" tall, 165 pound sophomore. My two choices are the Marucci Cat 6 and this bat. Can you help me choose? Bryan

Both bats should perform nearly the same due to the BBCOR standard. The difference is the Marucci Cat 6 will be a one-piece, balanced model that is generally preferred by contact hitters, while the Z-Core is a two-piece, end load design that is more for a power hitter.
