Omaha Silhouette SB116
From the earliest days of the game, Louisville Slugger has always employed the most powerful technology available in the bat business. Back in the days of Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth, that meant having the most skilled craftsmen at the lathe, handcrafting bats to the most demanding specifications of the world’s most demanding players. Today, it means applying the latest aerospace technology to bat making, delivering high-tech aluminum, hybrid and composite bats that give new meaning to the word “performance."

Review:
Our group of C and D tournament reviewers absolutely enjoyed this bat. “This bat has an excellent overall feel to it as it has a balanced swing and a very comfortable grip,” said Ed Rhoads. “It performs flawlessly for both crisp tight line drives and it has great pop to it. This is an outstanding tournament game day bat.”
After the first round was complete, this bat’s performance stepped it up a notch. “Out of several bats tested this ‘Omaha’ really stood out.” Said Mark Gault “The ball really takes off with this bat and I’m seeing the ball travel farther than any other bat I have used before, this bat is a keeper. Way to go Louisville.”
“This bat is a winner for line drives or distance and their price is outstanding for us guys with budgets to worry about,” said Bobby Montoya.
