If your bat is too short, you will be limiting your plate coverage, giving up a portion of your strike zone. Having the right bat length can help to get the best tool for hitting the balls. Weight & Drop Weight: The best weight is based on each individual and how they feel when they use the bat. It is wise to test the bat by swinging a few hits. You can also try holding the bat handle while extending your arm to your side. If you can’t hold the bat just like that for 30 seconds, the bat might be too heavy for you. Another thing to consider is to drop weight. If a bat weighs 20 ounces and is 30 inches long, the drop weight will be -10. The larger the drop weight, the lighter the bat. Larger, stronger players tend to favor smaller drop weight, while little league players can benefit from greater drop weight. Materials: The main materials to consider would be wood, alloy, and composite. Wood bats are usually made from different kinds of trees such as ash, maple, or birch. Varying wood types can yield different qualities. Alloy bats or aluminum baseball bats are ready for use right out of the wrapper, convenient. Alloy baseball has a smaller sweet spot, but it is great for daily use, and it lasts longer due to its durability. As for composite bats, they tend to have a larger sweet spot with less vibration. ![]()
