- When we crowned the 240-stamp Louisville Slugger Genesis our favorite USSSA-240 bat of 2021, we had only swung the red/gold balanced version.. now let's see what this bat can do with a little bit of endload!
After we filmed our initial Slugger 240 video, we reached out to Louisville Slugger to see if they could get a discount code for our viewers since we really enjoyed the bat - and they came through for us! By using the discount code "BATBROS" at sluggerslowpit... you'll get $60 off any USSSA-240 Genesis.

Huge shoutout to this page for not only doing unbiased reviews but for saving me $103.00 on my two new Genesis's I just ordered. ( my wife is going to be pissed, I literally have a collection of over 20 bats right now. )
I’m like that with baseball bats lol no adult baseball leagues around though so its just bp with friends don’t know much about side ball leagues tho but who knows i might but some slow pitch bats too if i ever decide to join a league
Wifey just gives me the look… another one! When I’m not playing, I take her w/ me for bp, catch, etc… she enjoys it. She used to play softball in middle/High school. Softball is a way of life!
Mine is like that with shoes….
Let’s see a 220 APG vs APG2 show down 👍👍👍
This right here! This is what we want to see! haha
I wonder which one he thinks is the hottest? I have the marsh and Williams and was thinking about buying the 220 APG
@@SamPhillips01 I have the Marsh and the 220 APG and I can never decide which one to use 🤣
for anybody curious, just ordered one and it's on sale right now for $260, and the BATBROS discount code knocks off another $52 then it's $15 standard shipping which brings the total to $223 which is a pretty solid deal for a $300 2022 bat.
Where
@@iconvictt-4285 interested?
@@jefflewis6072 yea
@@iconvictt-4285 okay what’s your Facebook name so I can text you?
I ordered the bat on the 11th from them and have yet to receive any notification about it being shipped. Have you had any issues?
First game I used this I went 3/3 2 doubles and a grand slam. Love it.
You guys have the best softball content on the internet. How come no new videos in several months?
They make a lot more doing baseball vids so they focused on that instead
I got this bat when it first came out and after several rounds on the tee to break it in, I hit my 2nd, 3rd and 4th tournament home run in the same tournament. I'm a skinnier guy that usually goes for the doubles or singles but this bat is a game changer for me. Sheeeeeeesh.
I'm the only guy with one of these at my local ball park. I have the sanchez version... it's not gonna take long for everyone else to start buying them. Now that I got it broken in, its hitting shed shots all day
Due to your video/review I found this bat NIW. I'm 54 and not a power hitter but I hit 2 ridiculous bombs in my first 10 swings. This bat is ridiculous, hard to believe its a 240. I love the thin handle and pyramid taper.
Holy Cow this bat is hot. Just got mine in last week and hit it in league for the first time last night. Head and shoulders above every other bat on the market. And with your discount code it's a steal. Was swinging the worth krecher. It is now a great 250 paper weight. Maybe I'll file down the handle and turn it into a big ass letter opener.
That matte gray one is slick. I want that thomas McKay version from Canada. I've yet to see anyone rocking a gene around here
Just ordered this bat as it finally came back in stock while I was looking for a new bat. Adding it to my south beach and becoming a pure Louisville lover again.
Thanks for the promo code! Just picked up the Sanchez genesis using it!
How is she?
5:42 that… that was beautiful
Need a review on the OG Griffey and Griffey 2.0!
embarrassed to say, ive watched dozens of videos and didn't realize till today you were local...love playing at Delta and hitting the streets or flying 99e from westmoreland
Definitely a great 240 bat. Do you plan to make a video explaining the different types of softballs you use? It seems like there's about half a dozen or so and I think people would really like to know which ones you use for certain times and why. Thanks
yeah absolutely!
This is the video that got me to buy that bat, i love how will genuinely loves it
The former bird hunter in me is extremely distracted by the geese in the background lmao
Been waiting on the reviews on this one. Picked mine up for the fall season and loved it. Hotter than alot of 220s out there
Duddeee the Geny is a damn beast too if yall can swing that one. It's a heavier load, think they call it a "Powerload" and it's just gas man. I was in love with the Louisville Z1000's and went to demarini/worth but now this Genesis is just a god of a bat my lord. I feel like having all of them in the bag lol.
There is no way a Genisis is just as good as a Z1000. I probably misunderstood your comment.
@@Thebatroller Yeah I didn't say they were better because I personally haven't tested the Z1000's enough but from the one I had vs the Geny, The Geny feels better " for me". Exit Velo is 100% better. My Z1000 died after about 400+swings, pop isn't as good. I'm well past 500 with the Geny and it just seems to get hotter.
I own this bat and I absolutely love it
It crushes the ball.
i just got all 3 of the models in 25 ounces....the end weight on all three were 16.1 for balanced, 16.9 for Sanchez model and 16.9 for the Purcell....so from my 3 bats i got, the purcell and sanchez are the same weighting although the Purcell was supposed to be heavier on the end but it's ok for me....not sure if 26, 27, 28 weigh out that same but don't be afraid of going with Purcell if you are worried about the extra end weight, they weighed the same on the end for me in the 25 ounce model....i like the color of the white and red anyway, so it is a win-win for me...i weigh all my bats the same way regardless of brand and it can really open your eyes to how different manufacturers load their bats....not all bats are created equal!!!!
How good is the Sanchez in 25 ounce
@@h_vega_7019 great
Not me selling this bat to a friend with no swings after I won it in a raffle 😭 Did not think I needed it but now having huge regrets
Thanks for the discount!!! Can't wait to swing this bat!! Keep up the great work!!!
Gotta love hood-view. That field always feels like it’s trapping bombs in!
This bat is absolute ⛽ Great review as always Bros!
Hands down the hottest bats 😜 I love my Tyler marshburn bat I blew mine up last year it was a 26.5 and just bought the 27.5 marshburn can't wait to swing it
I’m currently using the confetti nautalai and I absolutely love it
The whole line up is nuts, I’ve been swinging the Sanchez for a month barely any marks and hitting layers.
I love your guys’ baseball bat videos, havent swung since 2012 after i stopped playing in HS And you guys got me back into hitting baseballs with friends on our off time…
Been looking at your softball videos and seeing some games on the softball fields next to us as we do BP, never played slowpitch or anything but this makes me wanna join a league i like team environments and playing in leagues, brings me back to the good old daya xD
Let’s see the APG Vs the New Tyler marshburn Genesis
Just bought the balanced LS right before this review came out now I wish I waited but thanks for the code anyways great savings!
U guys should try a Miken ultra 2 just to see how far u can hit it.
Did he just call the light post and then hit it 😅that was great
I like when y’all tell us how far the ball goes in feet
Great review and hits guys! Would LOVE to see more ASA stuff
Won't this bat for my brother in a razz,
Won it a little late in the season but she'll be minty for next season
Wish this bat was still available!
You hitting rockets man Jesus
Will I’ve been preaching this for awhile! Lol Great video! Stock up!
Fire bat used it in a game and I had a triple and a double
60 degrees and high altitude thin air anything travels there. Come to viera and make a video I would love to see the reviews
this is 300-foot elevation sir. An hour away from the ocean.
It’s just too good of a deal to pass up right now with the promo code. I got the 27oz Daniel Sanchez signature, now going along with my Ryan Harvey Krecher you guys helped me buy back in August. Not even sorry.
Love the Channel man. Your reviews helped me choose my last couple bats. Was wondering if you had a chance to swing the 2022 blue geny power load and had any opinions on it.
First off, HUGE Fan, you guys put amazing unbias comparative videos out! my goto channel to start my bat research LOL... A request can you Velo test This Bat with the APG 1 pieace and the Autism Speaks Blue One piece, Id love to see your testing velo speeds
Louisville Sluggers hit a lot better in cold weather more so than other bats (IMO). Not sure how cold it is there but you do have on a hoodie (I'm thinking 60 degrees or below). When you test another bat it has to be the same temp and the balls have to be the same temp to get an accurate feel, review, or comparison. Worth Sports performed scientific studies on temps and ball compression; their data is interesting. Balls were tested at 72 degrees, and they found that for every 1 degree lower, the compression changed by 5lbs. So moving down the scale from 72 degrees, a ball would perform better and moving up the scale, it would perform worse. How much distance is added? IDK but I do find in really cold weather a flick of the wrist with my SuperZ sends the ball over 300ft.
U should do a throw back series.
omg id love to have a baby like this one wow...sadly in Canada nothing reaches us
You can get this bat in Canada
Kahunaverse. Smash it sports canada. Evolution sports all have this bat I think lol
It's a bird , it's a plane . Wait that is just the slow pitch bat bros hitting softballs.
Hit the new Adidias Ruckus Utrip.
How about some slow pitch wood bat reviews ?
bought this bat the beginning of last season, the guys on our team are thinking this bat may need more time to break in as we used it for the first full season last year and it dosent seem to have the same pop as a 2019 miken dc41 we have been using, thoughts on this? The Miken has a great sweet spot and feels like it has a fantastic tramp effect and seemed to come alive this year... is the miken a better bat or do we need more hits to break this one in? any advice would be appreciated on breaking it in . thanks
should mention..im thinking its gotta have 300 hits on it just a guess.
Swings like a shaved usssa bat
How is the weighting feel with the .75 oz end load? I was going to lean toward the Sanchez bc of the .5 oz end load but I love the look of the Purcell more.
Hi Will, I’m wondering if you will be at the winter bash again in Medford Or?
Is it possible to do a video on which bats do best with certain balls? I know theres a difference. Thanks.
Gotta get your hands on an M6 tech Monsta boys!
More than the Onyx Matrix?
I know you hit all different balls. In the weather your in wouldn’t the compression be way higher cause of how cold it is?
yeah the colder the weather is, the harder the balls get. That's why we never hit stadiums and we frequently mix in 52's.
I don't see the Genesis bat available on the link you provided. Are they sold out? Do you know when they will be back in stock?
Did this come with the taperd knob? Quite a few laser beams comming off that stick...........
@slowpitch bat bros is that Andy Purcell end load better than the Louisville red balanced? Which do you prefer?
Can you do a video with the Easton helmer diesel xl
Can we see you do these reviews in viera when it’s 80 hot and humid in a realistic scenario please
I have never been to Viera so that’s not realistic for me 😂
Realistic scenario? They are hitting 300 feet above sea level. What exactly is unrealistic about that?
Please review the Juno Always Aware
Question: It's my understanding that this bat has a .75 ounce end load. Does it feel like that or does it seem to swing more like a lighter ounced end load?
APG or Voodoo One... Which is more perfect?!?
This- the Voodoo has more competition
Will are you going to Vegas in December for softball?
I scanned through your video's and didnt see any comparisons with ssusa vs usssa ?
I'm new to slow pitch softball world what the best bat for me trying to stay in a wife friendly budget to get the most bang for buck ?
the sanchez full ounce endload Next?
Lady gen was the full oz el
WOW!!! That bat is SEXY!!! Great job as always on the videos. I know I asked before but I have to ask again... Will you make the jersey with the roses on it available?
Use the polar power
Can you review the Demarini Volition USSSA? I've heard zero about them
Do you think this bat or one of the fireflex's? I'm really torn between the two..
I'm getting a 25oz of one of these, if I'm use to swinging 26oz should that be pretty similar to what I'm use to swinging?
What is slow pitch? Looks like they are hitting softballs. Can anyone explain?
Have you guys swung the genesis everett Williams how does it compare to this one
Can u do a swing make over or tutorial video plzz
My league uses dabeer clincher balls. Any suggestions on bats for those?
Probably a heavier old alloy or steel bat
They've got a couple of ASA models in the range, how do they compare? Are they as good?
How would you compare this to the Sanchez model?? Identical except for the endload?
Yes sir just a 1/4 ounce more end load all same barrel technology
Will you use the Tyler Marshburn genesis?
can this bat be used in all slow pitch softball leagues? i just started playing last year and not sure about the asa/ussa rules?
I’ve been searching high and low and can’t find this apg2 ANYWHERE. Anybody know where to look?
Any extra genesis you selling?
Honest opinion is there much of a noticeable difference in performance in the 240 bats and 220 bats? I've heard lots of ambassadors say there isn't much of a difference but looking for an unbiased opinion lol. Worth noting that where I'm at pretty much all leagues and tournaments only use Hot Dot balls, which I believe are .52/275. All in all How much of a difference will I notice between the 240 and 220 bats?
With good balls, yes. If you are up in Canada and all you hit is .52/275 Hot dots, the difference is minimized a fair bit. Those balls are more about how you hit them than what bat. I have a bucket of "fun" balls: Dudley Thunder advances, ZN's, Gold Dots and Platinum dots. With those balls, the differences between bats (240 or otherwise) is much more pronounced. Hitting my bucket of hot dots brings everything back into the same range (within 3-4 mph, give or take) when using my pocket radar.
Louisville owes you guys some balls lol!
Anyone else cringe when he threw that beautiful bat😬
For a non testing league is this one of the best I could get?
The best yes.
Any clue when they would be back in stock with these?
Where can I pick this bat up? Can't find it anywhere
Which would you feel is best for pop, sweet spot etc? Between the Purcell genesis and Sanchez genesis ? Which one would be best for homers ?
It is all the same barrel no matter what nat you get, just different paint jobs...they just put in heavier end caps and lighter knows depending on what bat you get
HB sells them
damn imagine how good you would have hit if Stencil could pitch
What's the difference between all the new genesis bats all look the same just different colors
Just different endloads, they’re all pretty much the same
220 apg vs 240 ap2g, which is better?
I have both. The black APG is ridiculous! The ap2g is the same if not hotter imho… The APG is my fave, so it’s hard for me to go against it! But if I had to chose… I’d probably pick the ap2g. This bat is disgusting. For all those out there that don’t have one. You won’t be disappointed.
Does anybody know if the Louisville slugger Kings is the same tech as this apg2?
What is in the background??
What's the endload difference between the APG and the Sanchez? Looking to compare these vs the 240 Ryan Harvey Krecher which dominated for us last season.
Sanchez is a half actually- they feel very similar though
My Kreecher is a rocket right now.
