# Louisville Slugger Atlas Baseball Bat

The Louieville Slugger Atlas Bat is a premium one-piece alloy masterpiece for elite high school and college players. Boasting an updated look and crafted through both player trials and AI simulations, this bat combines cutting-edge technology with the legendary history of Louisville Slugger bats. 

The Atlas leverages insights from AI modeling to incorporate variable barrel thickness along its entire length, resulting in a colossal sweet spot and optimal performance. With a one-piece alloy design, this bat offers total barrel control and a comfortable feel, carrying forward the legacy of Louisville Slugger's dedication to the art and science of the game.

**Perfect bat for:** Players who prefer a light swing weight or a wood-like feel in an alloy bat. It's a precision hitter’s bat designed to provide a good balance between weight and power.


### Key features include:



* **EVOKE Alloy Barrel:** AI-optimized wall design along the entire length of the barrel.
* **SPD-Gen2 End Cap:** Designed with lightweight, composite materials to optimize barrel performance.
* **Premium LS Pro Comfort Grip:** Applied to the handle for the added tack and cushion players love, improving comfort and bat control.
* **Balanced Swing Weight:** For the ultimate combination of speed and power
* **TUNED Mass Damper (TMD):** Component within the handle absorbs vibration.
* **One-Piece Alloy Construction:** Stiff, durable design focused on amplifying a player’s bat speed to deliver peak exit velocities.


### Top competitors comparison: The [Voodoo One](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/voodoo-one/l9487) and [Easton Alpha ALX](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/voodoo-one/l9487)


The Voodoo One, Easton ALX, and Louisville Slugger Atlas, all light-swinging single-piece alloy baseball bats, offer distinct advantages for hitters. The Voodoo One emphasizes precision and durability with a balanced swing, while the Easton ALX focuses on a responsive sweet spot and lightweight feel. The Louisville Slugger Atlas, incorporating AI simulations, stands out with variable barrel thickness for a massive sweet spot and optimal performance, carrying the historic legacy of the Louisville Slugger brand. Each bat caters to different player preferences, with the Voodoo One and Easton ALX providing reliable performance and the Atlas introducing technological innovation for elite high school and college players.


### The progression of the Louisville Slugger Atlas Baseball Bat:

There is no 2022 version of the Atlas. It’s compared to the single-piece Solo which also used a variable wall thickness and unique end cap to keep the bat light. 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)


**PROS**



* My 14-year-old son needed a new BBCOR bat. He likes the one he got as it swings light and the barrel seems huge, although it's very loud.
* My son has been swinging a Cat X composite. I was not seeing the bat speed I thought he should have by now, I bought him the Atlas and from the first swing I saw a difference on bat speed. 
* Balanced bat with a massive sweet spot which makes it easy to catch barrel. As well as great improvements in durability.

**CONS**



* Loudest bat especially in cages. Bat has a rattle in it and we have only had it 3 months.
* The bat has so much vibration.
* Way to loud. It's distracting.


### Certification: BBCOR, USSSA, USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The Louieville Slugger Atlas is a newer bat that's been out for two years now. It's the next bat in the same generation as the Louisville Slugger Solo. It is a one-piece design, very easy to swing. Flashy paint job. It’s one of the top couple of bats in the alloy market.

Voodoo One

## DeMarini Voodoo One Baseball Bats


The DeMarini Voodoo One is designed for balanced swing weight and a classic feel. It serves as DeMarini’s premier bat for players seeking one-piece alloy construction. The Voodoo One is an excellent complement to the two-piece alloy construction that DeMarini uses in the broader Voodoo Series, and is a well-balanced bat for maximizing swing speed and bat control. The bat’s one-piece construction offers the explosive power of a bat that’s stiff on contact, and its barrel is bookended with a reinforced knob and cap that have helped make a name for DeMarini over the past 35 years.

**Perfect bat for:** Elite high school and collegiate hitters seeking a one-piece alloy bat to maximize swing speed and control.


### Key features include: 




* **X14 Alloy Barrel:** Engineered for precision and consistency, providing a lightweight but powerful swing.
* **Tracer End Cap:** Increases barrel performance without sacrificing swing speed, enhancing the overall feel.
* **1-Piece Construction:** Offers a stiff feel on contact, maximizing energy transfer to the ball for explosive power.
* **Balanced Swing Weight:** Designed for optimal swing speed and control, making it perfect for hitters looking to improve their batting average.
* **Fortified Metal Compound Knob:** Features a combo of alloy and composite materials to enhance durability and allow for improved leverage. 
 



### Top competitors comparison: [Easton ADV 360](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/adv-360/l59709) and the [Louisville Slugger Solo](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/solo/l7816)

The DeMarini Voodoo One stands out with its balanced swing weight and explosive power, perfect for hitters focusing on precision and speed. Competing models like the Easton ADV 360 and the Louisville Slugger Solo offer similar technologies for balance and speed. Still, the Voodoo One's unique combination of the X14 alloy barrel and Tracer End Cap provides a distinctive edge in power and feel.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* This is an excellent one-piece bat with a balanced feel.
* My son is using his first BBCOR bat. Although he was previously using a -5 USSSA bat, he hasn't noticed any difference in the weight. He has already had success with it on the big ball field this fall. This one-piece alloy bat is great, especially in the Northeast where temperatures are cooler.
* I am very satisfied with this bat. My son has recently started playing on a 60/90 field. This bat has excellent balance and a large sweet spot. It has great pop right out of the wrapper, so there is no need to break it in. Additionally, it looks great too.

**CONS**



* Bat is too light, causing players to swing early. It doesn't have as much power as a BBCOR composite bat. 
* Not suitable for heavy hitters; ideal for children who require a lighter bat for swinging. Grip must be perfect, or it will sting hands.
* The sound changed, and when the handle was tapped on the ground, it produced a vibrating sound.


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

DeMarini's Voodoo One swings light and offers a ton of pop thanks to its stiff one-piece alloy construction. While the small barrel might not be for everyone, contact hitters and power swingers both appreciate its speed and distance potential. If you're a player seeking a light bat with serious pop, the Voodoo One deserves a swing. 

Pop: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Durability: ⭐⭐⭐

Vibration: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

CATX2 Alloy

CAT8

## Marucci CAT 8 Baseball Bats 

 
The Marucci CAT 8 series is part of a lineup of bats consistently praised for outstanding performance and durability. The CAT 8 is a two-piece composite bat designed for a blend of power, speed, and control at the plate, with an expanded sweet spot to help hitters achieve their full potential. The series also serves as a testament to Marucci’s commitment to applying data and insights from professional hitters. Founded in a backyard shed in 2002, Marucci Sports has grown into one of the most reputable names in baseball equipment over the past 20 years. 

 
**Perfect bat for:** Youth to college-level players who are in search of a bat that offers a blend of power, speed, and comfort.


### 
Key features include:




* **AZ105 Super Strength Aluminum Alloy:** Offers thinner barrel walls for a higher response rate and unmatched durability.
* **Multi-variable Wall Design:** Expands the sweet spot and reduces weight, enhancing forgiveness and power.
* **Precision-balanced Barrel:** Designed for optimal swing speed and control, improving hitters' performance across all levels.
* **AV2 Anti-Vibration Knob:** Delivers a better feel and minimizes sting on mishits, ensuring comfort during every at-bat.
* **Ring-free Barrel Technology: **Increases flexibility and promotes maximum performance with no "dead" spots on the barrel.
* **Micro-Perforated Soft-Touch Grip:** Provides superior grip and comfort during every swing. 



### Top competitors comparison: [The Louisville Slugger Omaha](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/omaha-2/l8755) and the [DeMarini Voodoo](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/voodoo/l7333) 

Marucci CAT 8 particularly excels in its use of AZ105 alloy for durability and a thinner barrel for a higher response rate. While the Omaha and Voodoo are known for their balanced swing and innovative technology, the CAT 8 sets itself apart with its anti-vibration technology and multi-variable wall design, the cat 8 uses 8 different thicknesses of barrel wall, offering players a mix of comfort, power, and precision that is hard to beat.


### Progression of the Marucci CAT baseball bat

Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

 


**2014 **-** [CAT6](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat-6/l7498)**



* Building on the ring-free barrel design, Marucci releases the CAT6 with an extended, optimized barrel made from the AZ3000 alloy.
* Patented anti-vibration knob takes on additional weight for a more balanced feel and faster swing speeds.

**2017 **-** [CAT7](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat-7/l7247) & CAT7 CONNECT**



* CAT7 and CAT7 Connect are introduced, featuring the upgraded AZ4X alloy for improved performance.
* CAT7 has a one-piece alloy construction, while CAT7 Connect offers a two-piece hybrid design with a carbon composite handle.
* Both models feature an increased sweet spot and an upgraded anti-vibration knob (AV2). 


**2019 **-** [CAT8](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat8-2/l7709), CAT8 CONNECT, CAT COMPOSITE**



* CAT8, CAT8 Connect, and CAT Composite are launched.
* The barrels of CAT8 and CAT8 Connect are constructed using the new AZ105 alloy for higher performance at the sweet spot.
* Introduction of SDX EXT connection technology for a stiffer connection and improved energy transfer.
* CAT Composite, a two-piece composite bat, is introduced with SDX EXT and ring-free barrel construction.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* I am pleased to say that my son has experienced an increased exit speed and longer distances. He has noticed that the bat has an expanded sweet spot, resulting in more comfortable hits with less sting.
* My son had a few mishits but the ball still came off decently, and he mentioned that there was no vibration. I would recommend this bat, especially for younger kids who are improving their skills but still want success.
* A go-to choice when under pressure. It has a large sweet spot, providing a ton of power. The bat is also easy to swing and consistently achieves a higher exit velocity off the tee compared to a Cat9 alloy and 23' meta.

**CONS**



* I purchased the -8 version, which has a small sweet spot. The knob is great, but the grip is not as effective. 
* If you are still 11, I suggest you get the drop ten because it has a bigger sweet spot and more pop due to its smaller aluminum content. Overall, it's a nice medium-swinging -8! 
* I was unaware that this bat was the Junior version and only recommended for Coach Pitch.


### **Certification**: USA, USSSA, BBCOR 


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

The CAT8 is an older model from 2019 and a good BBCOR and USSSA bat. Very good performing bat with a sound that players love. Lightweight and easy to swing. It's probably one of the best sellers, and since the CAT8 is still available, it's perhaps one of the better bang for the buck. Prices dropped for this older model. So, it is a good match for an entry-level player on a tight budget.

Velo

### Expert Notes
The longest lasting metal bat series on the market is still at its peak. Rawlings legendary Velo series returned in 2022, with a Velo ACP release that I’ve heard hitters say offers unparalleled balance at the plate. Over time, the Rawlings Velo series has evolved by incorporating the ACP (Accelerated Carbon Performance) line that adds extra carbon in the barrel, which we’ve heard does a lot to increase pop. While Velo’s aren’t the best looking bats you’re going to find, they make up for the plainness with top-notch performance. Rawlings’ resilient Velo series should continue to be a favorite for hard-nosed hitters who prefer production over flash.
