Product Description
The world’s first one-piece hybrid is now optimized for maximum contact. The ALL NEW True Temper RAKE USSSA (-8) Baseball Bat delivers maximum pop without sacrificing barrel control. The RAKE USSSA (-8) was designed for players that want to hit to both sides of the diamond. The RAKE USSSA (-8) bat features our proprietary AXENIC™ Technology that seamlessly connects the high performance EVMAX™ Alloy barrel with our SMARTPLY™ composite handle to deliver a hybrid bat with no connection joint. This unique construction removes all of the inefficiencies of traditional 2-piece bats. The AXENIC™ technology delivers the purest energy transfer from the swing to the ball on impact for maximum control. The composite handle reduces bad vibration on mishits, so it feels as good as it rakes. Finally, no connection joint means improved durability, less barrel lag, and more pop out of the wrapper.
In addition to all of the technology in the 2022 RAKE USSSA (-8) Baseball Bat offers, this bat comes with a FREE pair of batting gloves when you register this bat through True's Website. True Temper also offers an industry leading 120 day fit guarantee, and is available in more half sizes than any other bat in the market.
