Review Summary
based on 25 ratings. 25 user reviews.
The SL11EX2 features the USSSA 1.15 BPF stamp and is legal for play in 2012. Louisville Slugger is proud to present the latest addition to the EXOGRID line, the EXOGRID2. The EXOGRID2 features a brand new aluminum alloy exclusive to Louisville Slugger. The AC21 Scandium Alloy gives this bat extra pop, durability, and stiffness helping make it the best EXOGRID yet. The EXOGRID2 features Carbon Composite inserts. First, metal is trimmed in a grid pattern, then replaced with carbon composite inserts that are several times stronger and lighter than the metal they replace. The last thing you want at the moment of contact is for your bat handle to flex. When the handle flexes, the barrel can't. That reduces your trampoline effect. A stiff handle produces more barrel flex, resulting in maximum trampoline effect and, ultimately, greater performance. The EXOGRID Bi/Fusion Process uses a combination of heat and extreme pressure. This process ensures the sleeve inserts and metal wall are bonded to function as a single unit. The heart of the EXOGRID is the carbon sleeve which provides greater handle stiffness than aluminum alone ever could. Unidirectional fibers run the full length of the handle. AC21 Scandium combined with composite material ensures thin walls, outstanding durability and unmatched performance. Stiffness X Strength = Power and Performance. Free Shipping!

by mattIam30 - Dec 02, 2011
Pros: This bat was amazing for my son last summer. Glad it is USSSA stamp for 2012 use. He is only average size 5'4 and 120 lbs but hit 19 HRs last year (8 in Cooperstown), not bad for a middle infielder type player and not a typical masher.
Cons: It does dent up/flat spots after a solid season of use but it does produce.

Ask QuestionI'm 12, weigh 103 lbs and am 5'2". Do you think a 31"22 oz. is too big for me and is this bat legal for little league?
Asked by chris on May 09, 2012
Based on your height and weight, a 31" 22oz bat would be an excellent choice. The Exogrid2 is legal for Little League.

Does this bat have more pop than the Vertex? Please compare these bats! thanks!
Asked by 19tigers68 on Apr 24, 2012
Based on customer feedback, it truly seems as if ballplayers are split between the two. The Vertex does have a 2 3/4 inch barrel compared to the 2 5/8 inch barrel on the SL11EX2. Both tremendous pop.
· Apr 24, 2012
My bat cracked (Exogrid2). If I send it back to you guys am I allowed to get the CF5?

Is the TPX EXOGRID2 a one piece or 2 piece bat? Thank you!
Asked by Jamie on Feb 10, 2012
The Louisville Slugger TPX EXOGRID2 is a one piece alloy bat, that features carbon fiber inserts in the handle. This helps make the handle more stiff and produces more barrel flex. A more flexible barrel will help create a maximum trampoline effect, thus helping to increase performance.
· Feb 10, 2012
It says this bat is legal for 2012...what is the difference between this bat and the new 2012 model? We play on USSSA club team. Thanks
Asked by Hey There on Feb 09, 2012
This bat does have the new USSSA stamp and is legal for use in 2012. The main differences between the 2011 and 2012 model is the weight difference, the 2011 model comes in a -8.5 and the 2012 model comes in a -9 and -5. The change in graphics is going to be the other main difference.
· Feb 09, 2012

· Feb 05, 2012
we've always went with easton bats and was thinking of going with this exo... how do you compare it with the S3 easton
Asked by Not quite sure.dad on Feb 05, 2012

· Jan 25, 2012
Will this bat be legal in 2013 as well. Would like to get two years out of it. Thanks Bob
Asked by Bob on Jan 19, 2012
It depends on the league if it is legal in 2013. However, the Exogrid 2 will be legal in 2013 for play in USSSA in the 14U and below age group.
· Jan 19, 2012
How would you say this bat compares to the Demarini Voodo, Easton S2, and Combat B3?
Asked by fasteja on Jan 18, 2012
All are going to be very high quality and perform very well. The Exogrid is a one piece alloy and would be best suited for a power hitter. It is much stiffer than the Voodoo and S2. The Voodoo and S2 are going to have more flex and better for a contact hitter.
· Jan 19, 2012
I'm thinking of gettimg this bat or the b3 I'm a power hitter. what's better 4 me?
Asked by dad on Jan 18, 2012
Both are going to be good for power hitters. It will really depend if you want all alloy like the Exogrid2 or an all composite like the B3.

I am a 12 year old power hitter. i am stuck between the Exo and the Omen. The massive sweep spot on the Omen amazes me. I used an exo before, and i hit the ball to a 300 foot fence, on one bounce. Which one do you suggest?
Asked by baseballflover on Dec 30, 2011
Both bats will be good options. These bats have great pop and very large sweet spots. This will depend on what you like. You can't go wrong with either bat.

A friend of mine who coaches bout this bat for his son. He mentioned that it's warrenty is not valid if the bat breaks if used in below 60 deg. weather. He also said that this bat should not be used for batting practice but is more of a game bat.Where can I find out all the information about this bat?
Asked by TC on Dec 27, 2011
This warranty is valid not matter what temperature you are playing in, if you buy the bat then you have a one year manufactures warranty. we only suggest that these bats are not used in a batting cage, with those very dense dimpled cage balls it is likely to damage a bat.
