This drop 8 RXT will present one of the heaviest drop sizes available on the fastpitch market. Desipte being a heavier bat overall, the weight will be distributed very well across the entire length of the bat (i.e. the bat will feel balanced). And when an older player (high school or college level) gets the bat in their hands, we believe there is really good chance that they will enjoy swinging this bat.
Louisville Slugger loads up this bat with some really great technology so that it mimics qualities of two legendary Slugger fastpitch bats: the XENO & the LXT. When a batter connects with a softball they will experience a stiffness (lack of flex at the connection point on the bat) that is similar what one would feel on a XENO. Power hitters usually really enjoy a stiff bat, but contact hitters can still enjoy this feel as well. In addition to being stiff, the bat should be very comfortable to swing due to less vibration getting down to a player's hands if they don't square up the softball perfectly. That comfortable feel is very similar to what is experienced when swinging an LXT.
Get after this 2-piece, all-composite bat if you are a little older (so you can handle the drop 8 size) and enjoy the stiff feel at contact! You'll blown away that this bat can reduce vibration (even with its stiff feel) and also feel very balanced (even though it has a drop 8 length-to-weight ratio).
