2012 Xeno

[softball_dad27]

Hey HB crew, I have friend here at work that is selling a 2012 xeno bat. My DD took some swings and it sounded it stills have some pop. The only problem I have with the bat that it has a rattle like something is loose inside. She hasn't given me a price on it, but would like some feedback if should purchase the bat?

Thanks

Xeno bats most certainly have a distinct sound. However, the RATTLE you're describing is a broken disc in the barrel of the bat. This happened to my daughter's Xeno and LXT. If it were under warranty you would've been able to send it in. With that said, pass on it.

Agreed with above. The rattle is not good. It may not pass pregame inspection - I've seen the same rattling bat pass, and not pass at the same tournament.

Doesn't matter how much pop it has if dd is prevented from using it when it matters.
