Rawlings Quatro Pro Composite Bat (-11) 22 oz 33" (Used)

The Rawlings Quatro Pro Fastpitch bat uses a suspended inner barrel that helps keep the bat from overstepping the limit in the middle of the barrel and drives higher pop on the towards the end cap and handle. Using a suspended inner barrel is not new in the fastpitch industry—the likes of Slugger’s LXT or Easton’s Double Barrel do similar things. On the outside, the barrel is a composite material built for durability and size. The inner and outer barrel work together to create legitiamte pop along the full length of the barrel, increase durability and maintain an legally performing bat. Also, Rawlings uses the “Focused Flex” connection piece. It is, basically, a silicone collar that connects the barrel and handle. The idea behind it is to keep enough stiffness in the bat to be effective yet dampen the sting in the handle when the ball isn’t hit squarely. It does work—as has been proven in their baseball bat Quatro that uses a similar design.

The Rawlings Quatro Pro is a two-piece composite bat favored by serious hitters for its exceptional pop and balanced swing weight. Its performance is driven by Quatro Technology, which features a redesigned inner barrel for a larger sweet spot. The stiff flex collar reduces barrel drag and minimizes vibration, providing a solid feel on contact and enhancing bat control for accurate swings.

Since the Quatro Pro isn't legal for most organized leagues anymore, it's a niche option with limited practicality for competitive play. However, if you can find a used one in good condition and you play in a league that allows older bats, or are looking for a hot bat for recreational play or batting practice, then the Quatro Pro is totally worth considering. The Quatro Pro was known for its large sweet spot and a balanced swing weight, making it a dream for contact hitters.
