Only the 2026 Worth Bedlam XL USA/ASA (WSA6JRBEDL) is certified for USA/ASA slowpitch softball. All other 2026 Worth slowpitch bats — the Bedlam Balanced, Bedlam XL USSSA, Bedlam XXL, and Krecher XL — are approved for USSSA, ISA, and NSA leagues only. Always verify your league's current approved bat list before purchasing. Browse all USA/ASA approved slowpitch bats at Smash It Sports.

For maximum USSSA power, the Bedlam XXL (WSU6JRB12X) leads the lineup with a XXL 1oz end-load and S-FLEX stiff handle — built for experienced hitters with strong, fast swings. For a powerful mid-range option available up to 28 oz, the Bedlam XL USSSA (WSU6JRBEDL) is the move. For USA/ASA power hitters, the Bedlam XL USA/ASA (WSA6JRBEDL) with its INNER CORE barrel and 13.5-inch barrel is the go-to choice.

The Bedlam Balanced USSSA (WSU6JRBEDB) is the clear choice for contact and gap-to-gap hitters in USSSA/ISA/NSA leagues. Its balanced swing weight, R-FLEX handle, X868 barrel, and 13.5-inch barrel create the fastest, most forgiving swing in the 2026 Worth lineup — maximizing bat speed and plate coverage over every pitch location.

The fundamental difference is construction and the feel it creates. All four Bedlam models are 2-piece composite bats — separate barrel and handle sections — that reduce vibration and allow each section to flex independently. The Krecher XL (WSU6KJF1L) is a 1-piece composite bat — a single continuous piece of composite from knob to end cap — delivering a stiffer, more connected feel with direct, immediate feedback at contact. Both the Bedlam XL USSSA and Krecher XL share the X868 barrel and XL .5oz end-load; the deciding factor is your construction preference.

The X868 barrel (used on the Bedlam Balanced, Bedlam XL USSSA, Bedlam XXL, and Krecher XL) increases outer barrel wall flex to extend the effective sweet spot across the barrel surface — producing consistent high-exit-speed contact even on slightly off-center hits. The INNER CORE barrel (exclusive to the Bedlam XL USA/ASA) takes a distinct approach — increasing outer barrel flex to allow the inner core to fully compress at contact, creating an explosive trampoline-style energy return engineered for USA/ASA certified play. Both technologies prioritize exit speed and sweet spot performance through different engineering paths.

The R-FLEX (Regular Flex) handle — found on the Bedlam XL USA/ASA, Bedlam Balanced, and Krecher XL — provides a versatile, comfortable in-between feel. It absorbs vibration on off-center contact while maintaining solid energy transfer on well-struck balls, making it ideal across a wide range of swing speeds. The S-FLEX (Stiff Flex) handle — found on the Bedlam XL USSSA and Bedlam XXL — is designed for players with faster, more powerful swings. Its stiffer profile minimizes energy loss between hands and barrel, delivering greater exit velocity for hitters who generate above-average bat speed. Not sure which is right for you?

The Bedlam XL USSSA (WSU6JRBEDL) is the only bat in the 2026 Worth slowpitch lineup available in 28 oz — giving it the widest weight range: 25, 26, 27, and 28 oz. Every other model in the 2026 Worth slowpitch lineup tops out at 27 oz. If you are a bigger, stronger power hitter who needs the 28 oz option, the Bedlam XL USSSA is your only choice in this lineup.
