## Easton ADV1 Baseball Bat

Easton ADV1 baseball bat is part of Easton's Project 3 Series and is designed for youth and college players. This model is mainly known for its one-piece, composite design, emphasizing a light swing weight without sacrificing power. Easton's deep-roots and commitment to technological advancement have made their bats some of the most revered and sought-after in the game. The Easton ADV1 bat is designed to offer young players an unprecedented combination of power, speed, and control that sets a new benchmark in the youth baseball category.

* **Power Boost™ "Soft Knob" Technology:** Delivers more leverage and power potential, while reducing vibration and improving comfort for the hitter.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* After extensive research, we found the perfect bat for our 10-year-old. It boosted his confidence and impressed his teammates. We recommend avoiding two-piece composite bats as they don't last long. 
* Bought this bat for my son playing in the minors. Great balance and pop. Added taper to the knob, and he loves it.
* The crack of the bat is sweet, didn't sting, very light for a 30 inch, grip is comfortable. 

**CONS**



* After about two weeks, noticed the sound and feel was different on contact. Inspected the bay and found a small fracture/crack.
* The bat feels hard, but there is also a ton of sting.
* Cracked within the first couple games. 


### **Certification**: USA


### Expert Notes (Parker)

The Easton ADV1 is a great entry-level bat that performs at a high level for USABat Certification. A composite bat that is a balanced lightweight bat that will perform for any hitter contact or power. For someone who is required to use USABat Certification this bat is going to be great for those higher-level players within USABat certification. The lightweight composite allows all kids to have the confidence to compete with the better pitchers who may throw faster.

Threat

### Expert Notes
Rawlings wanted to create a bat that’s meant specifically for smaller framed
players—and that’s just what they did with the Threat. The newest 2022 Threat comes
in an awesome Stars and Stripes themed colorway that we all
love, and delivers on its promise of enabling smaller hitters to swing with extra speed
through the strike zone. The 2022 Threat has evolved from when the series started in
2018 by adding even more width to an already expansive barrel—although I’ve heard
young hitters still love the 2019 Threat, as well (if only because of its neon green
colorway). If you seek a one piece composite bat that isn’t going to break the bank and
will benefit those who haven’t yet grown into their natural power, the Rawlings Threat
series stands alone.
