  • Pure 360 composite is thinner and lighter
  • iST technology gives a solid feel and maximum sweet spot

  • Review by: Tawana
  • Pros: I can't say enough good stuff about Louisville Slugger and the Xeno softball bat. Louisville Slugger came to my school and let us hit all their bats. Almost all of us switched from our Anderson and Worth bats to the new Xeno and Onex. The pop was not comparable. We hit the ball much harder with the new Xeno.
  • Cons: White grip gets black and brown

  • Pros: Love this bat! Takes a little time to break in but once it is, it sounds great. My daughter's hitting distance has improved greatly. I coach dixie ball and even my girls who have never played before are getting on base with this bat!
  • Cons: Not really a con since they tell you not to but the first Xeno my daughter had broke in half because she used it in cold weather. Got it replaced and now we only use it when it's 60 or above.

  • Review by: KevinN
  • Pros: This bat is like no other. My daughter(14U) did not want to change from her old bat to the Xeno because it didn't feel or sound the same. This season so far she has 18 home runs. One every 9.8 at bats in tournament play. She has almost as many extra base hits as singles. THIS BAT HAS INCREDIBLE POP. She is going this Saturday to MLB Pitch Hit Run Team Championship at Citizens Bank Park and would not go without her Xeno. A lot of her teammates are now using their Xeno's too. For my daughter no other bat will do.
  • Cons: The grip wore out too quickly and we've had to have it rewrapped. Less than a dollar per home run? Who wouldn't pay that small price

  • Review by: Lady Trojans
  • Pros: This bat is excellent. My daughter used her coaches daughter's XENO and it was amazing. When she hit it sound like glass breaking. No vibration or anything. My daughter was really satisfied with it so I bought her one of her own. Your hitting distance will also improve. We love the XENO. I recommend this bat to any softball player. Also be sure to wear batting gloves because the grip get's dirty easily.
  • Cons: The dirty grip. Nothing else really. ;) :)

    Verified Purchaser
  • Pros: Coming from a two Demarini (CF4 & CF6), the girl says it swings better and since using the Xeno she is hitting harder with more solid drives and more overall distance. Always subscribed to it being the archer and not the arrows... But the only change is the bat. YMMV of course so take it for what it's worth. The bat seems to work well, and build quality initially seems good for the price range. Cheapbats transaction was flawless.

  • Pros: My daughter used her friends Xeno in a tournament and hit her first homerun. So of coarse I had to buy her one of her own. Made the purchase on Tuesday the bat arrived with free shipping on Thursday and by Saturday she had hit three more homeruns. This bat is hot straight out of the wrapper. Love it and the confidence it has given my daughter.
  • Cons: The only thing I dont like is the sound it makes when the ball comes off it. Sounds like glass breaking, but with the awesome results we have had I'm sure I will get over the way it sounds in a hurry.

  • Pros: This has been my favorite bat since it's release. I used it through my Senior high school season and bought one for myself as I continue my college career. I used to be a total Demarini fan, but this one has so much more pop than any CF4, CF5, or CF6 I have swung in the past. The grip has held up very well. I highly recommend this bat! The purple color is just an added bonus. Get this model while you can!

  • Pros: Great bat. Bought for my 13 year old daughter. Ball explodes off the bat. Distance on hit balls has increased as bat becomes broken in. Concerned with the -10 initially, but daughter is able to generate the bat speed to get the bat around. We went up in weight so the extra weight has helped with distance with regard to driving the ball. Awesome service from the folks at CheapBats.com – professional, fast, and hassle free.

  • Pros: Great bat for both anyone new to the composite bats or for a player well versed playing with a composite bat.This bat has a great feel to it and is well balanced. The pop is excellent and my daughter hits the ball so much farther with this bat. Since buying this bat, I have seen 4 or 5 other girls with the same bat and the school also purchased this bat as the "team bat." You can't beat the warranty...Louisville Slugger stands behind this bat.
  • Cons: Can't use it in cold weather or with dimple balls. However, this stands with any complosite bat, not just this one.

  • Pros: Daughter loves the bat, hot right out of the wrapper, she hit her 2nd HR with this bat over CF and then some after having the bat for only a week. She does not want to give it up.
  • Cons: The cap at the end of the bat has separated slightly, keeping an eye on it to see if it gets worse so that I can replace it. She doesn't not want to give this bat up at all, So I hope that it does not separate any more.

  • Forgive me, I'm new to the world of softball. Can you tell me what the -10 oz means on this particular bat? Should I take that into consideration when ordering my daughters bat? (which would normally be 32"/22oz)
  • Asked by Marissa
  • The -10oz is the Length to Weight Ratio of the bat. If you subtract the length of 32" by the weight of 22oz then you are left with "10". It's also referred to as "Drop 10" or "Minus 10" at times as well. You definitely should take into consideration the proper size and weight that would work best for your daughter's bat, as the wrong length/weight can throw her off quite a bit.

  • Asked by Janette
  • According to the manufacturer's bat sizing chart she is recommended to swing a 31"/21oz. bat. The size chart is only a recommendation as many girls her size do swing bigger bats as well as many swing a lighter bat.

  • Is this bat 100% composite?
  • Asked by Brandi Smith
  • The 2014 Louisville Slugger Xeno is a full 100% composite bat for fast pitch softball.
  • Answered by Kevin (Customer Service)
  • My daughter currently uses a 32/23 endloaded bat. She also has a 32/22 endloaded bat. She likes the Xeno bat and I understand it is a balanced bat. What weight Xeno should I order and should I get the Xeno any longer than 32.
  • Asked by Craig
  • If your daughter does like the drop 9 32"/23oz. we would recommend staying with what size she is most comfortable with.

  • I am 16, 5'5, and about 170 pounds. I usually use a 33 in, but there's only a 32 and 34 in left in stock. Which one should I go with?
  • Asked by Katie16
  • It will depend on what you can handle. The 34 would probably be better and you can choke up.

  • I have read a couple of reviews for the 2014 Louisville Slugger XENO fastpitch bat. They said that in cold weather, their bat broke in half. Does that happen in cold weather? Also, do you guys do same day shipping?
  • Asked by Heather
  • I am personally of the opinion that the weather has very little to do with a bat breaking. We did an experiment here a few years ago where we stuck a bat in a freezer for about six hours, then took the bat into our 90 MPH batting cage and tried to break/crack/dent the bat. The only thing that happened was our hands stung a lot when we hit the balls. That being said, we always recommend following the manufacturers instructions on how and when to use a bat. We offer free, same day shipping on orders placed before 2pm PST. Most of our high end bats and gloves come with free 2nd day delivery.
