    My son loves this bat. He likes the feel in his hands. His team has tried it as well and have loved using it. It indexes them to hold the bat the same every time. I have used it and you can feel the difference with the axe handle.

    Does it have more pop than the axe origin, no. But it does have a bigger sweet spot, so it seems like it has more pop than the axe origin.
    the endogrid, helps, but does not eliminate bat sting. You will get bat sting with this bat. It's a one piece bat so bat sting is expected, unless you child can hit the sweet spot every time.
    I highly recommend this bat if you want to be introduced to axe bat. I say skip the Origin line. We tried it and we were not impressed. with both my sons we have the elite one USSSA, avenge 2018 USSSA, avenge 2020 USSSA, GS4 wood, and the element USA.
    Once both my boys tried the axe bat, they will never go back to any other bat. We have even been offered a brand new rawlings bat for free and my sons still turned it down because they will only swing the axe bats or bats that license the axe handle from axe bat.

    The only complaint I will say about this axe bat, that the other ones don't have is the end cap. My youngest has at times hit off the end cap, and it is starting to show very very very minor deformations (end cap sticks out on axe bats). This has never happened with our other axe bats. The end cap seems to be made of softer materials than the other axe bat models.

    Son is 11 and played all stars this year. He loves the feel of the axe handle and the pop of the bat. The drop 9 is a little heavy but even middle school baseball here in TN is using BBCOR drop 3 bats. If you plan on your kid going from rec to school ball, don't let them keep using drop 12 and 13 bats. Go ahead and build up the arm strength. This bat is perfect for the transition.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The envy of the team

    My son got this bat because he grew like a weed since last season and needed a new one. A lot of the kids want composite bats, but this Dad refuses to pay for them because they're big $$ and can't be used in cold weather, which still lingers here at the beginning of the season.

    Several of his teammates are in the market for a new bat because they're been playing travel ball and don't have the USA Bat stamp required for Babe Ruth League. Everyone's envious of his Axe, and in last night's opener, he nail two doubles that one-hopped to the fence; he's never been a power hitter...more like a scratch single and let his speed make up the difference.

    Anyhow, to say we love this bat is an understatement, and something tells me there will be a lot more in the dugout before too long!

    My 11yr old son loves the axe handle grip. He had an origin usssa last year and unfortunately one of his teammates cracked it during fall ball batting practice. I couldn't find the receipt to get it warrantied. This season I found him a usa certified axe element for $80 brand new.He used his own Birthday money to load an amazon gift card for me to buy it for him. He was currently using a usa certified easton S750 which he liked but struggled against slow pitching. The -8 vs the -10 on the s750 worked great. Extended hitting face is awesome! Just wish it was made here in the USA and not in China.

    +1 - Item arrived on time, and not damaged
    +1 - Item is as described
    +2 - Item works as intended

    Thoughts: A $400 bat will not fix your players swing, nor will this Axe bat. If you're player doesn't regularly connect, or has poor hits when they do make contact, there is nothing magical about this bat that will suddenly have your player hitting grand slams. There is no substitute for learning proper swing mechanics and contact drills.

    Other Thoughts: That being said, if your player has all that down above and makes regular contact, they will see a slight improvement in their bat speed and overall results. My son found that his ability to get this bat around quicker was better, and that instead of a line drive to the gap he started hitting it over the OFers head. Not over the fence, but he was gaining 10-20 feet in distance when he made proper contact. Part of that is in the weight distribution of this bat, as well as the engineering in the sweet spot. If you're in the market for a new bat, don't want to spend $400 on a bat, then this bat is worth a shot. Just know that practice with it will be needed. The handle is different and your player will need to adjust to it.

    My 12 year old son absolutely loves this bat. He was struggling last season with his hitting so we switched to an axe bat because we heard great things about them. He had 9 9HR’s, 10 triples, 12 doubles & a hand full of singles. He finished the season with 30 RBI’s. My son liked the AXE bat so much we bought a 31” Elite Hybrid BBCOR, because now he is playing 50/70 ball. I would definitely recommend this bat if your looking to switch things up.
