Louisville Slugger Pro Prime TPD1 Torpedo Maple Bat

About This Item

The Pro Prime Maple TPD1 Torpedo Baseball Bat is engineered to help players maximize performance and hit more pitches on the sweet spot. This torpedo bat is reshaped to shift mass from the end of the barrel toward the center brand, adding more weight to the sweet spot and helping players consistently barrel up the ball with more power. The Pro Prime TPD1 features a slight handle taper for improved comfort, and its UV light treated Pro Series Finish creates a hard, high-gloss topcoat. All new Prime bats are backed by a best-in-class 75 day limited warranty.


FEATURES:

  • 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
  • Pro Grade Maple: A hard wood bat material trusted by professional players
  • TPD1 Torpedo Bat Barrel: Mass of the bat is shifted from the end of the barrel toward the center brand, adding more weight to the sweet spot and helping players consistently barrel up pitches.
  • UV Light Treatment: A specialized ultraviolet lamp generates a chemical reaction within the topcoat to immediately cure and harden the material
  • 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
  • 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

ADDITIONAL DETAILS:

  • 75-Day Limited Warranty: Every new Prime bat features a best-in-class limited warranty that more than doubles our previous 30-day coverage as our mark of confidence in the hardest bats we've ever made.
  • NOTICE: Baseball/Softball Bats are only eligible for return if they have not been used.

Nice Bat

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this bat two weeks ago. High quality wood bat. Very impressive workmanship and finish.

Solid Bat!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the pop off the bat! The barrel fits where I make contact the most and it’s not too end weighted. Only flaw I can mention is the cup at the end is a bit thin and can cause collapsing or breaks if you catch it wrong. Just pick better pitches! :) The warranty is legit! They were very generous and replaced 2 bats that unfortunately I chose the wrong pitches to swing at ending in a splintered end and collapsed cup. Overall solid bat though and reasonably priced compared to other torpedo bats on the market.

Received incentive

Had To Try

No hype….there’s something to this torpedo phenomenon…I absolutely love this bat.

Great Warranty On A Great Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought one of these to start off the summer season, unfortunately I broke about two months in. The warranty process is so easy that it didn’t matter and I had a new one in less than a week. As for the actually product, I’d put it at a slightly end loaded swing weight for wood bats. Might not fit a 14 year old swinging wood for the first time but great for stronger players. The heavy weight leads to slightly higher exit velocities than other wood bats. Definitely meets the standard for high quality wood bats, and the torpedo is great for players with a longer swing.

Good Pop

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the torpedo bat a few weeks ago for my 17 year old because you couldn't use Baum Bats. The aesthetics of the bat takes a little getting used to but the ball really seems to jump off of it. It also takes a little time getting used to where the sweet spot is. Overall he really likes the bat.

Son Does Not Like It Likes His Old Louiseville Bat

He prefers his old traditional louisville wood bat that broke does not like this bat at all

Excellent Bat!

I have been looking for a bat to accommodate my swing and this is it! I play in a 50+ senior baseball league and so far in 3 games I have been RAKING! I used to constantly foul out and realized I was hitting the ball with the skinnier part of my traditional bat. After using the torpedo bat, I have been noticeably more consistent at the plate and having many more hard hit balls in play. Well worth the price and wait to get this bat! We’ll see how long before it cracks or breaks but so far seems very strong and well made.

Crazy Pop, Good Feel

Great bat. Miss hits felt like a metal bat, and the pop feels nearly the same as a metal. Perfect balance.

Great Bat!

Bought this for my son when the preorder was first available. It’s a nice solid bat and my son loves it,

Solid Bat

Bought this for my son who is in his last year of little league. He has already put two over the fence with it. He is having more success with it than his select pwr

Pro Prime Natural Tpd1 34"

I purchased this bat recently due to all the media hype. I noticed that my regular bat had mostly ball scuffs closer to the trademark and not at the end of the bat. I figured the TPD1 would be the best choice since that model has the sweet spot closer to the trademark. For me, the bat is easier to swing, feeling more balanced and lighter due to the location of the sweet spot. I have had good success with limited at bats so far. I feel more confident at the plate knowing that I will have a better swing with a bat that does have good pop.

Torpedo Bat

I bought this bat for my 14 year old son. He has only used the bat in BP and games a U trip for now. He absolutely loves the torpedo bat allows him to find the sweet spot. He said it doesn’t ring him up bad when he misses the sweet spot. It draws attention when he pulls it out of the bag…

Disappointed

Big Louisville Slugger fan - took the VIP tour a few years ago and went there a few times back when I played in College. I was headed to an Adult baseball camp at Dodger Stadium the first week of May and have to have it by then or I didn't need it as I would never use again. I called a couple times during April checking on status and nobody could really help me. That bat came the week I got back from California. It looks beautiful but unfortunately came too late :(
