2022 Louisville Slugger Meta

Specifications

Barrel Material- Composite

Handle Material- Composite

Construction- 3 Piece

Recommended for- Contact Hitters

Full Review

The all new 2022 Louisville Slugger Meta barrel is made with EKO Composite material just like the 2021 meta.

It has almost all the same features as the previous year model except the paint which is quite reasonable for a bat that is loved by their players every year.

Louisville slugger meta has already faced a ban in 2022 because of being over-powered, So in my opinion if this is the best BBCOR Baseball bats they could offer that could be legal let it be.

I would like to admit another thing that I loved about this BBCOR bat is its paint and I believe it to be the best ever color for the meta.

The price is still the same 500 bucks which I'm getting used to but still believe that it should be 50 bucks lower.

For best performance it is best to completely break-in it before participating in a match.

Overall I would like to say that this is the best multiple piece composite baseball bat right now for high-school.
