Description

Power is IN R DNA. The BBCOR bat that keeps changing the game, the 2021 Meta (-3), puts an unyielding power in your hands. Our EKO composite barrel is engineered to the pinnacle of performance. A three-piece construction featuring our patented 3FX Connection System provides a stiff feel on contact that, when paired with our barrel design, leads to a light-swinging bat with an enormous sweet spot. New to the 2021 model, the Premium GT1 end cap further maximizes the barrel length and swing speed -- the Meta’s calling card -- helping you power your way to the top. Meets BBCOR standard EKO Composite Barrel - engineered to the pinnacle of performance; light swinging, huge barrel, and the truest sound in the game. Three-piece design, featuring patented 3FX Connection System that allows for a perfectly tuned “stiff” feel on contact while dramatically reducing vibration. Premium GT1 end cap that maximizes barrel length and swing speed. Balanced swing for the ultimate combination of speed and power. Premium LS PRO Comfort Grip for the perfect mix of tack and cushion.

  • Great Bat…but cracked after two weeks. But,LS took care of us…
Style: (-3) BBCOR Size: 34"/31 oz
My son is 15 and a varsity high school baseball player. I ordered this top of the line bat about 3 weeks ago, and he used a handful of times (real baseball practice just started). I couldn’t believe a $430 bat cracked so quickly. Hopefully, it was defective, but I’m nervous this will happen again during the season which would be a HUGE problem. For the record, he loves this bat, and has been drilling balls all over the place…but it does need to last. I only gave it one star because of longevity. Give Amazon credit, they are shipping a new bat and it will be here by 3/30 (season starts 4/4). Since it was less than 30 days old, Amazon covered the replacement. After 30 day I would have needed to go through Louisville Slugger directly. If it lasts the season (should last two for the premium price) I will give it the appropriate number of stars. But for now, it’s a one star bat. Amended, 2/2/23. The bat lasted the entire 2022 HS baseball season, but broke again in January (something on the inside). It was still covered under warranty, so I shipped it back…along with a note that this is the second 2021 model that broke…please send a 2023 model Meta. They did. Couldn’t be happier with Louisville Slugger. They stand behind their products and the bat is awesome. They have a customer for the near future (till my son is done playing HS baseball. ... show more

  • Easiest 5 star review I've ever given
Style: (-8) USSSA Size: 31"/23 oz
This is an absolute banger of a USSSA bat. When I say this thing hits absolute bombs, I mean it. Slow pitch 25-34 mph this thing still hits absolute piss missiles. The quality is great and it looks amazing with a neon green lizard skin wrap.

  • Great Bat
Style: (-8) USSSA Size: 31"/23 oz
31 drop 8, purchased mid-season for my son who is playing 11u travel ball. Grip is comfortable. Barrel is large and has big sweet-spot. Swing weight is described as "balanced" however it definitely has more end-load than the 31 drop 11 Solo that he had before. We knew it would be a step up in swing weight, but would not make such a change mid-season. This pushed him to improve his load and timing. He loves it though, especially when he hit a home run on his first AB. ... show more

  • Great Bat
Style: (-8) USSSA Size: 31"/23 oz
My son is a strong 9 year old and uses the 31 inch drop 8 bat. He loves it and seems to have a great sweet spot. The grip had to be replaced after a couple months of heavy use, but no big deal. Great bat.
