The Louisville Slugger Z1000 is from the Jeff Hall signature series, which is extremely well-crafted for hot out of the wrapper performance. This bat is constructed with 100% composite material, with Louisville Slugger’s special LS-2X composite, an extremely high end material that will have you hitting more powerfully than ever before.
The Z1000 is a two-piece design, with an IST XStiff handle for more effective energy transfer and a stiff feel, for powerful hits. This bat also features a “power load” end-load, which gives it an extra 0.5 ounces of weight at the tip of the barrel—a Jeff Hall signature design—so you can hit the ball as hard as possible and knock it out of the park.
If you’re looking to be a power hitter, or are already a power hitter looking for a bat that can maximize your potential, the Z1000 is the right bat for you.

This is THE bat to use if you’re a power hitter looking to step up your game. You should have seen the look on my teams face when I walked in with this bat for the first game and immediately knocked a ball over 300 feet! It was epic. This is definitely a bat that is best if you’re used to end-loaded bats, and hitting hard. If you’re still trying to get used to the feel of a bat and how to swing properly, you may not be able to use this bat to its full potential. This is more a bat for a somewhat experienced player looking to take their game to the next level. Like I said, this thing hits HARD. I’ve never hit as far as I have with this bat..
