<p><a href="http://www.thebaseballshop.co.uk/baseball-bats-c11/pro-prime-bats-c81/louisville-pro-prime-c271-p1315">Louisville PRO PRIME - C271</a></p>
<p>The extremely balanced, best-selling Louisville Slugger wood bat model built with hard maple to benefit all types of hitters.
The Pro Prime C271, a maple baseball bat with a balanced swing weight, is ideal for leadoff men setting the table or cleanup hitters clearing the bases. The high-gloss finish with a fade finish - from powder blue to neon pink for a look that stands out at the plate.An all-new surface hardening process, including our Professional Series Finish cured with UV light treatment, results in bats 30% harder than previous Louisville Slugger Prime models. The Pro Prime C271 is accompanied by an industry-leading 75-day limited warranty. Restrictions apply.
Pro Hardened - Steel rods generate a combination of pressure and heat to compress the wood of the bat and create a harder, denser surface along the entire length of the barrel
&amp;nbsp;


Professional Series Finish - An enhanced resin material, paired with an ultraviolet light finishing process, results in a bat 30% harder than previous Louisville Slugger Prime wood bats with mirror-like appearance on gloss models
&amp;nbsp;


UV Light Treatment - A specialized ultraviolet lamp generates a chemical reaction within the topcoat to immediately cure and harden the material
&amp;nbsp;


Seamless Decals - Applied directly under our high-definition topcoat, the iconic center brands and back brands blend into the bat almost as intricately as the grain of the wood itself
&amp;nbsp;


75-Day Limited Warranty - Every new Prime bat features a best-in-class limited warranty that more than doubles the previous 30-day coverage as our mark of confidence in the hardest bats we&#039;ve ever made.

The C271 turning model used is the most popular turning model at Major League level. The model uses Louisville densest starting billet to give consistent hardness. A standard handle, medium barrel and max knob taper creates a versatile bat for power hitters and contact hitters alike.

<p>From Louisville Slugger&#039;s range of MLB Prime wood baseball bats - the &#039;Captain&#039; maple wood bat.
The Louisville Slugger MLB Prime line-up is the pinnacle of wood bats. The team at Louisville has applied its extensive knowledge to develop a product that, from knob to taper, is unmatched. Each of the models feature:
EXOPRO Finish - all MLB Prime models include Louisville&#039;s EXOPRO finish giving an unparalleled look and feel, and an unmatched level of hardness. This innovation in wood bat technology gives you a finish you can feel in an incredibly durable top coat that not only drastically increases surface hardness, but gives you a mirror like finish in high-gloss models.
Craftsman-Style Cup - an end cup specifically designed with a thicker width edge along the end of the barrel, giving added strength and durability to the end of the bat. Helping to reduce chipping and cracking.
Knob Medallion - an easy-to-read knob medallion embedded in the knob that indicates the MLB Prime grade of wood, the species of wood, the length of the bat, along with the name of the bat and a production date engraved in the surrounding area.
Seamless decals - all logos and branding are placed under the top coat of the models. Seamlessly blending them into the bat almost as intricately as the grain.
The DJ2 is based on the original P72 turning model - but renamed in honour of Yankees Shortstop Derek Jeter upon his retirement. Jeter used the P72 model of bat throughout his entire career as it closely resembled the original alloy bat used in high school. With a slightly larger barrel than most balanced models it offers a greater sweet spot.

<p>The Signature series from Louisville Slugger&#039;s range of MLB Prime wood baseball bats - offering players the change to step up to the plate with bats big league stars swing.
Through extensive conversations and collaboration with their MLB All Stars and Most Valuable players, the Louisville Slugger product team has developed a line of MLB Prime bats built to exact player specifications. These models, featuring the same extraordinary components of all MLB Prime bats, bring the bright lights to any ball field.
EXOPRO Finish - all MLB Prime models include Louisville&#039;s EXOPRO finish giving an unparalleled look and feel, and an unmatched level of hardness. This innovation in wood bat technology gives you a finish you can feel in an incredibly durable top coat that not only drastically increases surface hardness, but gives you a mirror like finish in high-gloss models.
Craftsman-Style Cup - an end cup specifically designed with a thicker width edge along the end of the barrel, giving added strength and durability to the end of the bat. Helping to reduce chipping and cracking.
Knob Medallion - an easy-to-read knob medallion embedded in the knob that indicates the MLB Prime grade of wood, the species of wood, the length of the bat, along with the name of the bat and a production date engraved in the surrounding area.
Seamless decals - all logos and branding are placed under the top coat of the models. Seamlessly blending them into the bat almost as intricately as the grain.
The CB35 Cody Bellinger model is built for the brightest lights and brightest moments. The LA Dodgers Superstar&#039;s model is back an all-natural finish and a large barrel that gives a perfect end-loaded feel.
The turning model is based on a modified version of the C243 model, with an uncupped end for more weight in the barrel and has a score of 4 (slightly end loaded) on the swing weight scale

The DJ2 is based on the original P72 turning model - but renamed in honour of Yankees Shortstop Derek Jeter upon his retirement. Jeter used the P72 model of bat throughout his entire career as it closely resembled the original alloy bat used in high school. With a slightly larger barrel than most balanced models it offers a greater sweet spot.

Finish: Fade - Hardline (silver tape) Navy to Grey Stain
Knob Taper: Flared
