This item ships FREE
Artfully crafted from top-quality, hard Maple, the 2021 Big Stick Elite 243 Maple wood bat is designed to help you perform at the highest levels. Maple wood is extremely hard. As a result, you get the best mix of performance and durability. Our Big Stick Elite bats also pass the Pro Ink Dot test, a strict test implemented by the MLB. This rigorous test ensures that only the best straight-grain, high-performance wood is used.
This Maple bat was carved in a 243-pattern, popular for its large barrel and huge sweet spot. That's why it's perfect for power hitters who prefer more weight in their barrel. In addition, it features a cupped end allowing for better feel, and optimal swing weight. Its 15/16"" handle also gives you more comfort and better control at the plate. Its flame treated handle adds an eye-catching style to the natural wood design, so this bat tends to turn heads.
When you pick it up, you'll see right away our Big Stick Elite bats are built from the best materials for the best hitters. Order yours now!

Good bat
I have been using 243's for several years now. I like my new 243, good weight and balance. I have used it in a few games now and it has some pop. I use it in games only, never in a batting cage. It was a good sale price when I bought it. I would have bought two, but at my age, I don't know how much longer I will be able to play.

A true 243, finally.
A very true 243, a bat that screams power hitter. Swings nice, all the weight where you'd expect it to be. Ball jumps off the bat when you hit it right, easy velo. Only problem is the cup, if hit near the end, the ball doesn't go anywhere. I see a lot of reviews saying it breaks easy, but not in my experience. It's a wood bat with a skinny handle, swing it right and it'll last a while. Best for strong, acclimated hitters. Very fun bat, with an amazing price.

Good bat, priced too high for no warrenty
I wasn't too excited when the price went up on these from $79 to $99 last year and was reluctant to purchase, I now realize I should not have. I purchased my third one of these a month ago, the first two (from 2021 and 2022) lasted at least a full season each but this one broke after a month, actually, to be totally accurate, on my 12th plate appearence. I used this bat as it should, nothing in the batting cages, wiffle balls on the tee, and then in games when I went to the plate, always dot down. Don't get me wrong, its a fine bat and i like it but for $100, there should be a warrenty. I'd only buy this if I can get one on sale <$70. Otherwise, get something else with a warrenty.

Advertisement Failure
The bat is fine; in fact, I haven't even recieved it yet, but the bad review is for the advertisement that this bat was even available to purchase. I saw that it was discounted, so I went ahead and placed an order for one 34 inch bat. I then get an email the following morning saying that the bat is backordered for another month and a half. Why even have the option to buy the bat if its not ready to ship?? This is a huge disappoint to me because I love Rawlings products, but to have to wait so long for a bat I needed relatively soon is disheartening.

Terrible product, no customer service response
Terrible product. Bat split on first contact with a ball. Waste of money. No response from customer service after email, no warranty on wood bats but wood should last longer than 1 pitch.
