2012 Patriot 2-piece (this is not a composite bat) are improved and combined with a new exclusive Kevlar coated carbon fiber handle and the new Quad-Cross reinforced end cap. The expanded sweet spot and unique knob and grip is what separates Metal Storm from any other bat on the market. Classic in design, the barrel is created entirely from our proprietary alloy. This bat has a very comfortable feel with just the right amount of flex and whip through the hitting zone. The barrel is almost imperceptibly end loaded allowing players to swing with greater impact and less effort. For the player, this design means more power at the plate. Features Youth - 8 oz. Two-Piece 2-3/4 in. Large Barrel Industries leads the race in developing extremely balanced, high performance bats. Length - 30 in. Graphic - Patriot Part No - 2
