    Huge shoutout to this page for not only doing unbiased reviews but for saving me $103.00 on my two new Genesis's I just ordered. ( my wife is going to be pissed, I literally have a collection of over 20 bats right now. )

    for anybody curious, just ordered one and it's on sale right now for $260, and the BATBROS discount code knocks off another $52 then it's $15 standard shipping which brings the total to $223 which is a pretty solid deal for a $300 2022 bat.

    Holy Cow this bat is hot. Just got mine in last week and hit it in league for the first time last night. Head and shoulders above every other bat on the market. And with your discount code it's a steal. Was swinging the worth krecher. It is now a great 250 paper weight. Maybe I'll file down the handle and turn it into a big ass letter opener.

    i just got all 3 of the models in 25 ounces....the end weight on all three were 16.1 for balanced, 16.9 for Sanchez model and 16.9 for the Purcell....so from my 3 bats i got, the purcell and sanchez are the same weighting although the Purcell was supposed to be heavier on the end but it's ok for me....not sure if 26, 27, 28 weigh out that same but don't be afraid of going with Purcell if you are worried about the extra end weight, they weighed the same on the end for me in the 25 ounce model....i like the color of the white and red anyway, so it is a win-win for me...i weigh all my bats the same way regardless of brand and it can really open your eyes to how different manufacturers load their bats....not all bats are created equal!!!!

    bought this bat the beginning of last season, the guys on our team are thinking this bat may need more time to break in as we used it for the first full season last year and it dosent seem to have the same pop as a 2019 miken dc41 we have been using, thoughts on this? The Miken has a great sweet spot and feels like it has a fantastic tramp effect and seemed to come alive this year... is the miken a better bat or do we need more hits to break this one in? any advice would be appreciated on breaking it in . thanks
    should mention..im thinking its gotta have 300 hits on it just a guess.

  • @Thebatroller
    @Thebatroller 2 года назад

    Louisville Sluggers hit a lot better in cold weather more so than other bats (IMO). Not sure how cold it is there but you do have on a hoodie (I'm thinking 60 degrees or below). When you test another bat it has to be the same temp and the balls have to be the same temp to get an accurate feel, review, or comparison. Worth Sports performed scientific studies on temps and ball compression; their data is interesting. Balls were tested at 72 degrees, and they found that for every 1 degree lower, the compression changed by 5lbs. So moving down the scale from 72 degrees, a ball would perform better and moving up the scale, it would perform worse. How much distance is added? IDK but I do find in really cold weather a flick of the wrist with my SuperZ sends the ball over 300ft.

    Honest opinion is there much of a noticeable difference in performance in the 240 bats and 220 bats? I've heard lots of ambassadors say there isn't much of a difference but looking for an unbiased opinion lol. Worth noting that where I'm at pretty much all leagues and tournaments only use Hot Dot balls, which I believe are .52/275. All in all How much of a difference will I notice between the 240 and 220 bats?

    • @SluggerStark
      @SluggerStark 3 года назад +1

      With good balls, yes. If you are up in Canada and all you hit is .52/275 Hot dots, the difference is minimized a fair bit. Those balls are more about how you hit them than what bat. I have a bucket of "fun" balls: Dudley Thunder advances, ZN's, Gold Dots and Platinum dots. With those balls, the differences between bats (240 or otherwise) is much more pronounced. Hitting my bucket of hot dots brings everything back into the same range (within 3-4 mph, give or take) when using my pocket radar.

    Why is it impossible to buy this bat in Canada?
    Anyone know how I can purchase one??

    I have the Sanchez and I've put a lot of swings on it in the cage and at BP, but it still doesn't feel broken in. Anybody else's genesis take A LOT of swings to break in?

      Keep in mind that these are still 240-stamp bats and they're going to plateau around 240-250 compression. It's not likely that anything is going to really feel like a broken-in 220 ever again :/
