MAPLE WOOD PROPERTIES: Incredibly Dense: Offers greater durability and pop than other types of wood Close Grain: Holds wood fibers more closely together upon impact, making it one of the hardest surfaces for wood bats Less Forgiving: Due to how stiff maple is, it tends to produce less forgiving contact off of mis-hits TURN MODEL FEATURES: Balance and Power: Features a traditional knob, a medium handle and a medium barrel, which is designed to be comparable to any metal bat Medium Barrel: Provides hitters with a large contact zone and extended sweet spot without sacrificing balance NOTICE : Baseball/Softball Bats are only eligible for return if they have not been used.
