2025 Easton Hype Fire USSSA Drop 8
BEST OVERALL USSSA
The 2025 Easton Hype Fire is a two piece composite bat with a big barrel that comes in a drop 8. We think the drop 8 is the best of the best compared to the drop 5 and drop 10. You get some added durability and power compared to the drop 5 but aren't left to swing an overly heavy bat (the drop 5) which we think is built for the YouTube influencer market.
2024 Easton Hype Fire USSSA Drop 10
BEST DROP 10 USSSA
This is Easton's feature bat in its USSSA line, and an early release for 2024 USSSA bats. We're still gathering information on the 2024 Hype Fire, but early reports are it's a rocket maker. Companies generally release bats out of their normal turn (as Easton is here) because it's got some real potential to move the market. We'll keep these pages updated, but we are hopeful this bat may very well be something to talk about.
2025 Soldier Tank USSSA Drop 8
BEST DROP 8 USSSA
The Soldier Tank Drop 10 USSSA Baseball Bat is a 2 3/4 inch barrel, drop 8, and balanced swing weight. It is a two-piece, all-composite bat with what Soldier calls a "7312 Trampoline Composite." The bat comes with a lot of hype and is the sponsored bat of Perfect Game.
2025 Rawlings ICON USSSA Drop 5
BEST DROP 5 USSSA
The 2025 Rawlings ICON is the 'new' Rawlings Quatro. It's a big barrel on a two-piece bat with a big barrel and generally greally good reviews. The drop 5 version has a light swing and a big barrel and competes well with other top end 2 piece composite bats.
2024 Marucci F5 USSSA Drop 10
BEST CHEAP USSSA
One of our favorite and we think most underrated bats in USSSA every year is the Marucci's F5. The 2024 version is a lot like previous years in a basic single piece alloy with a huge barrel made possible by some multi wall thickness, a great grip and top end performance.
2025 Marucci CAT X2 Drop 8 USSSA
BEST 2025 USSSA
The CATX2 drop 8 is one-piece alloy with a traditional swing feel and a balanced design. It uses a liquid-gel anti-vibration technology in the knob and endcap. Made with AZR Aluminum (same alloy in the CAT X from 2023), it's durable and claims to have an expanded sweet spot when compared to the previous model.
2024 Victus Pencil USSSA Drop 5
BEST ALLOY USSSA
For 2024 Victus releases one of the greatest looking bats of all time. This is a single piece bat, despite saying the word "Vibe" in the green on part of the pencil seems a bit more built like the Victus Vandal (in terms of the details in the write up). However, it's priced like the Vibe. We'll learn more as this becomes more widely available.
2024 Louisville Slugger Meta USSSA Drop 10
BEST COMPOSITE USSSA
The 2024 Slugger Meta in USSSA drop 10 is a two-piece composite bat with a massive barrel and moderate swing weight. It has not changed from the 2023 version so remains a big barrel and a light swing.
2020 Marucci Posey28 Pro Metal USSSA Drop 8
BEST COLD WEATHER USSSA
The 2020 Marucci Posey28 Pro Metal USSSA Drop 8 is one of our top picks for 2020.
2009 Combat Da Bomb USSSA Drop 10
BEST ALL TIME USSSA
The Combat B2YB1 B2 Da Bomb was a youth baseball bat from around 2009, featuring a one-piece, 100% composite design with a -10 length-to-weight ratio and a 2 1/4-inch barrel diameter. In our experience, the bat was a rocket maker and outpaced the XL1 from Easton pretty consistently. This is the bat, we believe, really put Combat on the map.
The Right USSSA Bat Size
We think the right size bat is way more important than the right model bat. Never buy the wrong size in the model you or your player might believe is hottest. Our data shows that the most significant piece to determine exit speeds is the swing weight of a bat. It follows that fitting the right size to the right player is single most important piece of data to get right. You can see more on our bat size chart.Best USSSA Bat Rumors
We don't see any major changes to the USSSA line in the short run. However, some rumors suggest we'll see a few new USSSA bats in October of 2023.How Much to Spend
Budget Considerations for USSSA Bats
Entry Level ($50-$150): Perfect for recreational players or those just starting. These bats offer solid performance without breaking the bank. Great for younger players who are still growing.
Mid-Range ($150-$300): The sweet spot for most players. You'll find last year's top models and current year mid-tier bats. Excellent performance without the premium price.
Premium ($300-$500+): Top-of-the-line bats with the latest technology. Worth it for serious players who play year-round and can appreciate the performance differences.
Pro Tip: Consider buying last year's model when new bats release. You can save 25-40% for nearly identical performance.
USSSA Bat Compression Data
USSSA compressions can be a distracting topic, and we're cautious about showcasing minor fluctuations in compression ratings on a device and process with its level of flux. However, for those interested, we’d instead you get this from us, who are not involved in compression bat sales, knowing we aren’t trying to manipulate it to show a specific outcome or imply a particular result. Note that these are all drop 10 bats with varying degrees of “worked in.”
