Although a drop 11, the Easton ADV 360 Drop swings as heavy as most drop 10s and we consider it as much. The bat has a huge barrel, good balance and great performance. The feel on it is just what most kids want. If the bat had more durability it would be a perfect 10.

The 2025 Hype Fire USA (-10) is a two-piece composite bat built for elite performance. It features Easton's Thermo Composite barrel, giving it a massive sweet spot and impressive pop—especially for a USA bat. With a balanced swing weight and Easton’s Power Boost soft knob, it’s designed for comfort, bat speed, and power. Early reviews call it “hot” out of the wrapper, making it a top choice for serious youth hitters.

The 2023 Select PWR in the USA drop 5 is a hybrid bat with a mid to lighter swing built with all the new gadgets found on the BBCOR version of the bat except the connection piece, which is the same found in Meta. We think those in the drop ten space will prefer a two-piece composite, which this bat is not. But, if you want a hybrid bat that swings a bit heavier than most two-piece composites, this is as good a bet as any.

This bat combines an alloy barrel with a composite handle and carries the USA Bat Certification Stamp and is approved for play. With an X14 Alloy Barrel, Paraflex Plus Composite Handle and Type V Connection (all the exact same for this year when compared to 2022). The bat is good for a hybrid. USA offers a pretty boring set of bats, but The Goods in USA can be a top choice for the right kid.

Although a bit on the heavier side for a drop 11, it swings right in line with other drop 10 bats in the USA space. So, if you consider this drop 11 as a drop 10, it is, as far as we measured, one of the very best bats in the industry. The Easton ADV 360 Drop 11 USA bat is a huge barrel, balanced swing, and knockout performance. It reminds us a lot of the Orange Easton MAKO as any USA bat to date ever has.

The Solo in USA drop 10 for 2022 is a legit bat with a good-sized barrel that has been a fan favorite since USA's inception in 2018. The bat is light, has a less unreasonable price point, and comes in a huge swath of sizes to fit just about player. Performance-wise it does really well and clearly meets the USA standard. We don't think anyone will be writing home to grandma about the SOLO in USA for 2022 (it hasn't changed from 2021), but we do think you'll get a quality bat for reasonable price that will last and work well.

For its price, it is a great entry-level USA bat for the hitter who needs as much bat speed as possible and doesn't see the pitch speeds that might hurt hands if mishit. There are no changes from the 2018 version to this 2019 Voodoo One in USA.

The 2023 Strato is a single-piece alloy bat with a great-sized barrel and light swing. This drop 10 version is made for the smaller kid who plays USA baseball, needs a very light swing, and wants an Axe handled stick. It also uses an asymmetric end cap to lower the swing weight.

The 2022 Louisville Slugger Prime in USA is a drop 10 with a good barrel profile and middle-of-the-road swing weight. Overshadowed by more popular bats like the ADV, the Slugger Prime is an under-the-radar pick that gets great feedback, hits the ball hard and has a really good feel on both hits and mishits. Made for the kid who plays a lot of baseballs we think it is an underrated pick in the 2022 USA space. (And we also think its graphics are the best of the year).

DeMarini's 2021 CF Drop 10 in USA is a light swinging two-piece composite bat built with the USSSA versions in mind. It swings light and doesn't appear to have the same durability issues as the USSSA versions. The flex feel is the exact same in this USA version as it is in its other lines. However, the barrel is much shorter and the more restrictive standard is immediately noticable. The USA CF is a fine bat, but it is far from a must swing like the USSSA versions. There are no changes between the 2021 and 2020 USA CF bats.

The 2022 Marucci CAT USA is a new bat for the 2022 lineup---that is, it isn't a repaint of the previous years USA Bat. This new version has a 2 5/8 barrel (the last had a 2 1/2) with an upgraded alloy and look. It still uses the anti-vibration knob, is a one piece alloy bat and a balanced swing. We think the bat will work well for that serious entry level player looking for a stiff feel and a light swing on a well known and made bat.

The Omaha in USA for 2022 is an entry-level performance bat made for the hitter who wants a bigger barrel on a single-piece alloy. Although this bat might not feel as good as more expensive bats when poor contact is made, the bat can hit the ball just as far as anything else in the USA standard. The swing weight is balanced and the sizes from 27 through 32-inch should fit most players. The USA Omaha isn't anything to get too excited about, but it will hit the ball hard when squared up and, at a reasonable price, it's a value buy through and through.

The drop 10 USA Louisville Slugger Atlas is a single-piece bat with a 'new' barrel that uses variable wall thickness (like the Solo series from Slugger in years past, but different). It is a 2 5/8 barrel. It also has a newly designed end cap, the same as the end cap in the USSSA drop 5 barrel. This is a basic bat that, we think, might replace the highly rated 6 Series (SOLO) bat from Slugger in years past. (Although that was a drop11, this is a drop 12).

The 2020 Axe Elite One USA is a drop 10 single piece alloy bat with a good-sized barrel and a light swing. The smaller sizes (26 and 27) are 2.5-inch barrels---not the standard 2 5/8 barrel. However, those 25 and 26-inch versions of the 2020 Elite One USA are our favorites within the group. They are almost perfect for the coach pitch market. Very young kids, just new into the baseball world, will like the ax handle, good sound, and very light swing of those shorter sizes. The 27 through 30 inches are fine, but we like the drop 8 versions of the bat better in those sizes (if one can swing it).

It is for stronger hitting kids who like a less flexible bat, a slight end-load, and an ax-shaped handle. As well, players who like this bat don't care as much about hand sting and massive barrel proviles. We like this version of the bat better than the drop 10 as we feel like the added mass makes contact feel better on mishits and gives it some added mass behind the ball.

But, we don't think the X14 alloy was adjusted enough from last year to make it perform better in terms of performance. It works well for the smaller player looking for lots of bat speed but doesn't see the pitch speed that will really ring the hands. It's a great value buy if you can find it for the right price.

Description
The drop 10 Rawlings 5150 for 2021 is an entry-level bat with a good brand name, lots of durabilities, and a balanced swing. It comes in a 27 through 31 inch and swings heavier than the drop 11. We consider this an entry-level bat that will leave a lot to be desired from the elite and serious youth player. However, those looking for a decent to the good entry-level rec player in the 9 through 11-year-old space should be happy with this one.

Description
The Rawlings Impact Youth USA Bat is a drop 9 single-piece alloy bat with a decent-sized barrel but a heavier swing weight. Usually, for players that need a bat in this size and quality, we recommend drop 10 like the Raptor from Rawlings, not the Impact. However, those that can swing the Impact will like the added mass because the ball will not go farther but won't hurt as much as mishits.

Our Testing Methodology
Comprehensive bat analysis in our 1,800 sq ft testing facility
Exit Velocity Testing
We measure exit speeds across multiple hitter profiles using industry-standard radar equipment. Each bat is tested with consistent swing mechanics to ensure accurate, comparable data across our entire database.
Swing Weight Analysis
Using professional-grade MOI (Moment of Inertia) measurement equipment, we precisely calculate each bat's swing weight. This data directly influences our control and swing feel ratings.
Ball Cannon Testing
Our precision ball cannon measures coefficient of restitution (bounce) and sweet spot performance. This controlled testing eliminates human variables and provides consistent impact data.
Data Tracking
Every measurement is logged in our comprehensive database, allowing us to track performance trends, compare models across years, and identify the best-performing bats in each category.
Multi-Hitter Analysis
We test each bat with multiple hitter types - from contact hitters to power swingers - ensuring our recommendations work for different player profiles and swing styles.
10 Years of Experience
Since 2015, we've tested thousands of bats in our facility. This decade of data gives us unique insights into performance trends, durability, and long-term value.
