Louisville Slugger 2011 TPX (-3) Exogrid Baseball Bat Specifications
Designed for high school and college players, the Louisville Slugger Exogrid composite baseball bat brings new meaning to the word "performance." From the earliest days of the game, Louisville Slugger has employed the most powerful technology in the bat business. Back in the days of Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth, that meant putting the most skilled craftsmen at the lathe, where they handcrafted bats to the most demanding specifications of the world's most demanding players. Today, it means applying the latest aerospace technology to bat making, delivering high-tech aluminum, hybrid, and composite bats for youth, high school, college, and senior leagues.
The Exogrid composite bat is made using Louisville Slugger's exclusive Exogrid design, which is known for fusing stiffness and strength. The last thing you want at the moment of contact is for your bat handle to flex. When the handle flexes, the barrel can't, which in turn reduces the bat's trampoline effect. A stiff handle, by contrast, produces more barrel flex, resulting in a maximum trampoline effect and greater overall performance. The latest Exogrid bats fuse a 3X composite handle and an ST+20 scandium alloy barrel within a seamless one-piece design. The ST+20 barrel's outstanding strength and toughness provide the performance, feel, and sound that top players demand. The 3X composite handle and transition area, meanwhile, produce greater handle stiffness than aluminum alone ever could. The bat's metal exterior is also trimmed into a grid pattern, with the cutouts replaced by carbon composite inserts that are several times stronger and lighter than the metal they replace. As the final step, Louisville Slugger bonds the sleeve, inserts, and metal wall using a combination of heat and extreme pressure, producing a single solid unit.
Other Exogrid bat features include a 2-5/8-inch barrel, a patented Pro Cup end cap, a 31/32-inch tapered handle with a synthetic grip, and a -3 weight-to-length ratio (without the grip). Available in 31- to 34-inch lengths, the bat meets all college and high school BESR bat standards. Each Louisville Slugger bat comes with an industry-best one-year warranty.
About Louisville Slugger
In many ways, the rich 120-year history of the Louisville Slugger baseball bat began in the talented hands of 17-year-old John A. "Bud" Hillerich. Bud's father, J.F. Hillerich, owned a woodworking shop in Louisville in the 1880s when Bud began working for him. Legend has it that Bud slipped away from work one afternoon in 1884 to watch the Louisville Eclipse, the town's major league team. After Pete Browning--the Eclipse's star who was mired in a hitting slump--broke his bat, Bud invited him to his father's shop to make a new one. With Browning at his side giving advice, Bud handcrafted a new bat from a long slab of wood. Browning got three hits using the bat the next day. Browning told his teammates, which began a surge of professional ballplayers visiting the Hillerich shop.
Although J.F. Hillerich had little interest in making bats, Bud persisted, eventually registering the name Louisville Slugger with the U.S. patent office in 1894. In the early 1900s, the company was one of the first to use a sports endorsement as a marketing strategy, paying Hall of Famer Honus Wagner to use his name on a bat. By 1923, Louisville Slugger was the selling more bats than any other bat maker in the country, with such famed clients as Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and Lou Gehrig. In the ensuing years, the company has sold more than 100 million bats, and 60 percent of all Major League players currently use Louisville Sluggers. The company now sells far more than bats, including fielding and batting gloves, helmets, catchers' gear, equipment bags, training aids, and accessories.
