- 1 PIECE HYBRID: AXENIC™ Technology seamlessly connects the SMARTPLY™ handle to EVMAX™ Alloy barrel without the use of a traditional connection joint. By removing the joint, RAKE is able to improve durability, eliminate unnecessary bonding weight, reduce barrel lag, and maximize POP.
- COMPOSITE HANDLE: Built using our SMARTPLY™ composite layup which optimizes carbon fiber angles to create the perfect marriage between balance, vibration dampening and industry-leading impact strength. This design allows for less mass in the taper area, and more mass in the barrel for more momentum and more distance on impact.
- HALF SIZES: Unlike other bat brands, True Temper Baseball offers all their bats in multiple half sizes. Our Half Size Technology is the only way for players to truly dial in their bat. Over half of MLB player’s use a non-whole size bat, why should you?
- 120 DAY FIT GUARANTEE: Here at True Temper Baseball, we believe that FIT = Performance. We stand by that statement with our industry leading 120 day fit guarantee, which means you cannot outgrow a True Temper bat for the first 120 days. During that time, if a player outgrows their bat, or simply is not happy with his current fit, they are able to exchange it for any other True Temper Baseball bat model or size at NO EXTRA CHARGE!
- When you register any RAKE USSSA (-8) bat, you will receive a personalized code to redeem your FREE pair of batting gloves at truetempersports.com/baseball.
