SHAVED and ROLLED -- 2023 Louisville Slugger Meta -12 USA Baseball Bat. This is a new design for USA from LS. The bat has 2 foamed in washers that get removed during the shave process which is a very similar design to the USSSA version of this bat. Very light and balanced after service and is an ideal bat for smaller kids or those who are not as strong. Larger, stronger kids should stay away from this bat. Level 1 shave is our recommended spec.
** END CAPS -- SELECT NO IF YOU ARE PURCHASING THE BAT ROLLED. IF SHAVING, SELECT YES. NEARLY ALL THE END CAPS ON THIS MODEL SEVERELY WARP DURING REMOVAL AND CANNOT BE REUSED. IF BY CHANCE THE CAP COMES OUT AND CAN BE REUSED, WE WILL USE THE FACTORY CAP AND REFUND BACK THE $30. IF NOT, THE CAP WILL BE REPLACED **
