SHAVED and ROLLED -- 2023 Louisville Slugger Meta -8 USSSA Baseball Bat. All new tech in this bad boy for 2023. Very similar design as the fastpitch Meta which is one of our shops top performer. Has a foamed in washer that sits dead center in the barrel which is a first for any USSSA bat we have ever seen. This bat shaved is ridiculous shaved and has a very unique sound to the product. This bat in my opinion is the top dog for 2023 USSSA bats. Recommended shave spec is level 1 for optimum performance / durability combination. We highly suggest NOT TO go above a level 1 shave as the bat will be severely compromised.
** END CAPS -- SELECT NO IF YOU ARE PURCHASING THE BAT ROLLED. IF SHAVING, SELECT YES. NEARLY ALL THE END CAPS ON THIS MODEL IS SEVERELY WARPING 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 **
