The Anderson Widowmaker is a single-piece bat with an endloaded feel and a good-sized barrel. Anderson Bat is not well known, but the company has been around as long as most. They became wildly popular with the Techzilla in USSSA and Rockettech in Fastpitch. The Widowmaker came on the scene in 2019(ish) and hit a stride of popularity in the college ranks (The University of New Mexico Used the bats). For 2021, the Anderson Widowmaker has a stiff feel, big barrel, and an endloaded swing that hits the ball as hard as any BBCOR bat on the planet.

Widowmaker BBCOR Drop 3
The 2021 Widowmaker is a BBCOR bat with an endload. We like the barrel feel and its stiffness. This bat is clearly made for big hitters. Average to smaller hitters will appreciate a different stick. D1 type players who need as much bat as any inch can offer will like the 2021 Anderson Widowmaker.

Our stronger hitters liked the bats stiffness and swing weight. Overall, the bat can perform as well as any bat on the market. It’s got a decent sized sweet spot and if you can barrel it up the ball will fly. Our smaller hitters didn’t like the feel of the bat on mishits and had trouble catching up sometimes.

We hit with the 2021 The Goods One Piece from DeMarini in BBCOR and USSSA, captured exit speeds, swing weights, and player feedback. We also compared the bat to similar bats of the 2021 BBCOR and USSSA world. That data is consolidated in our 2021 DeMarini The Goods One Piece review below. In BBCOR, it claims to swing a bit heavier than The Voodoo from 2020 but we didn’t see a big enough change to make a difference.
The 2021 Louisville Slugger Omaha is a single-piece aluminum bat in BBCOR and USSSA. The 33 and 34-inch BBCOR are in the endloaded category, while the rest, including those in the USSSA, are more balanced. For 2021, Slugger decided not to sell this bat wholesale. So, you can only find it directly on their website. The 2021 Omaha is true to its roots but does come with real upgrades from 2020. The handle’s aluminum is reenginneered to help bring down sting. While hitting, we did not notice any differences.
See the Solo Review
The 2021 Louisville Slugger Solo is a light swinging single piece aluminum bat made for the performance BBCOR and USSSA space. There is no 2021 version for USA. The major changes are the re-engineered barrel design of the 31 through 34-inch BBCOR and new end cap to help bring down swing weight in the USSSA versions.
This is the 2nd year of the Anderson Widowmaker. Other than the paint job, it has not changed from the 2020 version.
We recommend the 2021 Anderson Widowmaker for the big-hitting upperclassman who needs as much bat as they can find. If you can barrel it up the ball will fly as far as any BBCOR on the planet.
The loaded Anderson Widowmaker for 2021 is built for big hitters who like the stiff feel of a single piece aluminum bat. It swings well and has a lot of power if you can barrel one up.
Price CheckThe Anderson Widowmaker is a single-piece aluminum bat built with an average-sized barrel and a heavier swing weight. We found it to be in the top 10% of bats for swing weight (we measured the 33-inch). The bat is pretty straight forward as single piece aluminum are about as traditional as you can get in the BBCOR bat space.
