Jacobsultd commented on The CheckSwing Clubhouse's group Wood Bat Makers"Another regulation?? Another fee for all persons wanting to be wood turners or bat makers? What next, some formal training in making wood bat product? I would agree to this only if not 1 bat produced, from any company has EVER broken. Is the…"
Chris Patt commented on Jacobsultd's blog post How to choose a wood bat."Andre. this is great insight to selecting a wood bat. I would further say no matter what an aluminum model may spec out at, one will not be able to swing the same dimensioned wood bat. A wood bat would be way too end heavy in those dimensions for a…"
Jacobsultd posted a blog postHow to choose a wood bat.
Executing a Google search on “how to pick a wood bat” tenders a ton of results. Browsing a few of them, there is a common theme of detailing the type of wood and the pros and cons of swinging a model made out from ash, maple, birch, etc.. Some articles illustrate a chart of player height/weight-to-bat length/weight ratio. All this information is interesting and gives you something to read, but I think they are not concrete.So I will give you my theory on “how to pick a wood bat”, based on…See More

Thomas Bednark replied to Jacobsultd's discussion So many to choose from. How do you choose?"Tom here at barnstablebat.com wood quality and feel are the most resonable determining factors. Cosmetic looks is a driving factor too. Price should be in the mix. How would I select a bat ? 1) pick a model that feels good in the hands, place the…"
Jacobsultd joined Chris Dickerson's group
Players for the Planet, INC.
Players for the Planet was founded by Chris Dickerson of the Cincinnati Reds and Jack Cassel from the Cleveland Indians. The goal, to bring professional athletes together to inspire communities to build awareness of the growing environmental crisis.
Walter Ambrosch Master Turner replied to Jacobsultd's discussion So many to choose from. How do you choose?"How do you price what a bat is worth?
You can't say you want a cheap bat but it must be quality right?
In 1860 a bat was $0.50
that's over $1000 in today's money.
Plus players did not get $10-25mil / yr back then."
