![2024 Rawlings ICON [Glowstick] Review](/static/img/bats/2024/rawlings/bbcor/2024-rawlings-icon-glowstick-bbcor-long.webp){kind=icon}
The 2024 Rawlings ICON is a BBCOR and USSSA bat that is a cosmetic change compared to the 2023 version of the bat. This 2024 BBCOR Glowstick is a throwback to the 2017/18 Rawlings Quatro that killed balls (but didn't last too long). The USSSA version of the bat is a white bat with a great feel and a big barrel.
Models Overview
Batters seeking reach with each swing may find the Rawlings ICON to their liking. This bat has a big barrel with an great feel. For those in pursuit of Rawlings' best in the realm of high school baseball, this bat stands out as the top choice.
Construction & Technology
The 2024 Rawlings ICON uses an 'In/Tense Carbon Composite' for the barrel. This seamless barrel construction (think Combat Maxum) gives a massive barrel. The connection piece is stiffer than the Quatro, which we believe many will like. The bat swings light with a lot of its weight towards the hands.
Performance Comparison
This is the same as the 2023 Rawlings ICON, but it has a 'glowstick' color. Same bat, same price, different color.
Comparable Bats
Big barrels on flexible-feeling two-piece composite bats are plentiful. Look closely at a bat like Marucci's CAT X Composite or Louisville Slugger's META in BBCOR for a similar bat to the 2024 Rawlings Glowstick Icon.
Expert Recommendations
If you want a big-time BBCOR bat with a composite barrel, then this is a great choice. We like the above-average swing weight (for a composite bat, at least) as well as the great feel on hits and mishits alike.
The Bottom Line
If you want the best Rawlings has to offer, as well as a big barrel, and lighter swing then the 2024 Rawlings ICON BBCOR is for you. If you like this more than the gold colorway of 2023, here you go.
