What is the quick review?

The 715 Select from Louisville Slugger is part of their 2015 top shelf bat line.

What models and sizes are available?

The 715 is considered by Slugger as a three-piece hybrid bat: a composite handle, graphite connective piece and high grade aluminum barrel. The technology in the connective piece is referred to as Tru3 as in, I am guessing here, truly a third piece in the bat.

How does it compare?

The 715 is a new iteration of the 2014 Louisville Slugger RAID bat. The only difference is an improved durability in the connective piece. Otherwise, the bat is unchanged with the obvious exception of the paint job and name.
