The all-new Hero is the lightest USA bat Axe has ever made. The Hero is designed to give players more speed, and the most control in their swing. With its George Springer pro barrel profile, you get the fastest swing weight in our line. Fast, light, and great pop.
Features:
1-piece alloy construction makes it balanced for speed
Patented Youth Axe Handle enables max bat speed with more barrel control for your best swing, more often
New LPX Alloy Barrel that is ring-free and Axe's strongest yet has undergone a special heat treatment, ensuring explosive pop out of the wrapper through the lifetime of your bat
Composite HyperWhip end cap removes unnecessary weight from the tip of the bat for a faster swing, bigger barrel, and larger sweet spot
Engineered hitting zone gives max performance and strength to the entire hitting area, so you never need to rotate your barrel for durability
The 2018 USABat standard will allow youth baseball organizations in the United States to reach their goal of establishing a wood-like standard, a standard that will provide for the long-term integrity of the game.

Extremely fast shipping times! Good prices, but shipping a bit higher than some other sites. Will look to them again for bats in the future.

If I can give more stars in the review I would. I've been there a few times now. And I also placed online orders. They have great knowledge about what each kid should or shouldn't use. I have a daughter in softball and my son in baseball. Even though I'm over an hour away. I will not go anywhere else for my kids equipment. Thanks for doing a great job. And for being fun and friendly.
At Closeout Bats we stock what we sell! We have a huge warehouse and are NOT drop shipping bats like many web sites. We update inventory and availability on the Web site several times a day as inventory positions change shipping hundreds and hundeds of bats. We also sell bats out of our physical store, so sometimes things sell out before we can get them off the Web site.
Limited quantities available. Prices subject to change without notice. Like we say, if it's on the site, it's in the warehouse -- just SOMETIMES it might have some other player's name on it! If you snooze, you lose, so ORDER YOURS NOW!
