Louisville Slugger Baseball Bats

Louisville Slugger Baseball Bats are probably the most well known baseball bats in the world. They are mainly known for their wooden bats, but they also have a wide selection of aluminum baseball bats available. Since aluminum baseball bats are not allowed in professional baseball many past and present major leaguers use wooden Louisville Slugger baseball bats.

Wooden bats from Louisville Slugger as made of either Northern Ash or Maple and come in a wide array of colors, shapes, and sizes. The Louisville Slugger Baseball Bats that are made of Northern Ash are available with a clear coating that extends the life of the bat.

Louisville Slugger Baseball bats are available in the “Pro Stock Series” and are made from the same grade of wood as the major leaguer’s bats. The “Pro Stock Lite Series” is also made from quality wood and comes in lighter weights.

Most wooden Louisville Slugger baseball bats come with a cupped end that helps to reduce shock and vibration on contact. It also helps prevent the baseball bat from being top heavy which could cause you to lead with the barrel instead of your hands.

Aluminum Lousiville Slugger Baseball Bats have a very nice feel to them. They tend to feel lighter than bats of similar weight because more of the bats weight is centered around the handle. Lousiville Slugger TPX bats have a special end cap that helps to reduce vibrations at the point of contact. They are made of a one piece design which reduces the amount of flex in the bat.

Louisville Slugger TPX bats use a multi-walled design using both carbon composite and graphite with a resin filler inserted between the layers to eliminate air. Aluminum Louisville Slugger Baseball Bats have a good feel and make a distinct sound when striking the ball.

Whether you choose aluminum or wood you will find that you receive good construction from your Louisville Slugger Baseball Bats.
