-   This bat is amazing! With a slight end load and tons of pop, it's the perfect choice for any player. We're so happy we made this purchase - it's definitely worth it!

**CONS**

-   Unfortunately, after the first tournament it already has a slight rattle in the barrel.
    
-   I purchased this bat a month ago. After hitting two foul balls, the bat got scratched beyond my expectations.
    
-   This bat has no pop, feels like a USA bat, should be a cage bat, no pop, no pop!
    

### Certification: BBCOR, USA, USSA

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

  

The Louiseville Select PWR bat is one of the hottest bass out there for hybrids. The BBCOR model is a heavier bat and is in the same category as The Goods by DeMarini. Only about 20% of the market is going to be able to use this bat just because of it’s weight. It’s designed for a power hitter who likes a stiff feel and big barrel.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* This bat has a fantastic feel, sound, and performance on miss-hits. It boasts one of the largest sweet spots in BBCOR. Although it lacks feedback, it is very easy to swing.
* Great feel and pop. Although I usually change grips, the stock grip on this bat is solid. The durability is very impressive as well, as the bat has already outlasted most others.
* No failures on Meta bats except cosmetic chips. They perform better than new. High school varsity team used 32-3 for 2 years without issues. Change grip tape yearly and keep hitting!

**CONS**



* The finish will chip if hit against spikes.
* It's expensive.... and not crazy about the color.
* This bat has no pop.


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USSSA


### Expert Notes (Parker)

The Louisville Slugger Meta is still a slightly newer model. The meta is similar to the DeMarini CF which offers a lightweight composite handle with a huge barrel made for every sort of hitter. A popular series that offers great jump-off-the-barrel when you hit the sweet spot and keeps the sting off your hands when the ball is missed on the cap or handle. 


Pop: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

## What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* This bat is amazing! Both my 18-year-old and 15-year-old love it. It produces more exit velocity than any other BBCOR bat we've used."
* My son owns both the Cat8 and the Meta. The Cat8 has decent pop, but nothing compared to the Meta. The sweet spot on the Meta is at least three times larger, and when he connects, the ball takes off.
* This bat is a tank. If you get this bat it will guarantee you 5 more exit velo.

**CONS**



* The grip is thick.
* Just the crazy price. But at this point, I'm numb to bat prices.
* Check to see if you can even use this bat, illegal for NCAA and NFHS play.


### **Certification**:

The Meta Prime is BBCOR-certified, making it legal for play in high school and collegiate levels. 


### Expert Notes (Parker)
