Rawlings 2027 ICON The Chosen One BBCOR Baseball Bat - 3
The 2027 Rawlings Icon The Chosen One -3 BBCOR Baseball Bat takes the performance of the Icon composite barrel and combines it with an entirely different feel – a seamless one-piece composite construction designed for hitters who want a more direct and connected response at contact.
While the standard Rawlings Icon uses a two-piece construction, The Chosen One uses Rawlings' Chosen One-Piece Construction, seamlessly blending an optimally flexible handle into the carbon composite barrel. The result is the connected feel of a one-piece bat while retaining the performance characteristics of Rawlings' premium composite technology.
The barrel features In/Tense™ Carbon Composite, Rawlings' next-generation composite construction designed to maximise barrel size while maintaining optimal weight distribution. The large hitting surface provides hitters with a responsive sweet spot and consistent performance throughout the barrel.
Rawlings has engineered flexibility into the handle rather than using a separate connection piece. This gives The Chosen One a firmer, more direct feel at contact than a traditional two-piece composite bat, while maintaining enough handle flex to create a comfortable and responsive swing.
The Tuned Balance Performance swing profile provides a balanced overall feel with a slight amount of end load. This gives hitters enough barrel presence to generate power while still allowing them to maintain good bat speed and barrel control through the hitting zone.
The bat is finished with Rawlings' RevGrip™, a premium cushioned and tacky grip designed to provide a secure and comfortable connection between the player's hands and the bat.
For players who like the performance and large barrel of a composite bat but prefer the connected feedback of a one-piece construction, the 2027 Rawlings Icon The Chosen One offers a unique alternative to the traditional two-piece Icon.

Who Should Use The Chosen One?
The Rawlings Icon The Chosen One is designed for hitters who want composite barrel performance but prefer the connected feel and feedback of a one-piece bat.
Because there is no separate connection between the handle and barrel, The Chosen One provides more immediate feedback at contact than the standard two-piece Icon. This can appeal to hitters accustomed to the direct response of a one-piece alloy bat who want to move into a premium composite BBCOR bat.
The Tuned Balance Performance profile keeps the bat controllable through the hitting zone while a slight amount of end load gives hitters some additional barrel presence through contact.
Players who prefer maximum vibration isolation and a softer feel at contact may prefer the standard two-piece Icon. Players who prefer a firmer, connected feel with more immediate feedback should consider The Chosen One.
The Chosen One vs Standard Rawlings Icon
Both bats use Rawlings' In/Tense Carbon Composite technology, but they provide noticeably different hitting experiences.
The standard Icon uses a two-piece composite construction with Rawlings' Zero Loss connection. This provides greater separation between the barrel and handle and a more dampened feel at contact.
The Chosen One uses a seamless one-piece composite construction. There is no separate connection piece, producing a firmer and more connected response between the hitter's hands and the barrel.
The choice therefore comes down largely to feel:
Standard Icon: Two-piece composite – smoother, more dampened feel.
The Chosen One: One-piece composite – firmer, more connected feedback.
Neither construction is automatically better. The best choice depends on the feel the hitter prefers.
