Jimmy The Hook
Pros: The Rawlings Adirondack is a classic wood baseball bat, designed perfectly. It's well balanced, comfortable, and durable. I play in a wood bat semi-pro league, and this is the only bat I use and I haven't broken one yet. Big barrel, thin handle, great pop. Nice gloss finish.
Cons: If you hit balls off the handle, you can break this bat, as with ANY 1 piece wood bat. Swing at good pitches and this bat will be good to you for hundreds of at bats.
Blen

Cons: Wish the end was cupped, heavy, loses shine

John
Pros:
Cons: Horrible bat broke within week! Hit right on sweetspot and cracked, never buying rawlings bats ever again.
Dustin
Pros: Feels good off the bat, while it lasted.
Cons: Broke the second use. Horrible product, break looked like a problem with the bat. A chunk came out, didn't break cleanly. Break happened right on barrel in 70mph cage.

Sully
Pros: Love the pop this bat has. Play in an adult semi pro league and this bat is perfect for a player over 6'...good plate coverage and the bat has a great sweet spot. Just remember to rotate 1/4 turn every at bat and this bat will last a while!
Cons: wish the bat could be tapped at the end...just a personal preference...
Ethier-said-than-Dunn
Pros: Great pop and sound. Great flexibility. A little top heavy, but not that bad. Has a great knob, and requires a tape-job. Love this bat.
Cons: This bat has dents where the ball has been hit. This bat should definitely be bone rubbed.

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.
