F EATURES Steal the show. The Vandal Senior League (-10) is a USABat certified one-piece aluminum hybrid bat. Engineered with a carbon composite barrel-end creating an ultra-balanced design with low M.O.I. for faster bat speeds through the zone and faster ball exit speeds. The Vandal combines a ringless barrel made of multi-variable wall thicknesses for a more flexible sweet spot and unmatched performance you would expect from a Victus bat.

PRO R E S E R V E T S1 F EATURES Not your typical wood bat. The TS1 is handcrafted with a hard maple body and a hard gloss finish. This stick features a traditional knob and full cup for a balanced feel. The TS1 is a transition bat so it’s a little lighter than other Victus Pro Reserve sticks and has a larger barrel but still mashes like only a Victus bat can. This gamer is meant for players who are working their way up to the full wood bat experience or looking to work on their hitting mechanics.
