    High School & College
    BBCOR Bats
    All BBCOR bats are -3 drop. The goal is finding the longest bat you can still swing with full speed. When in doubt, go shorter.
    Height Weight Length Notes
    Under 5'4" Under 140 lbs 29"–30" Prioritize bat speed
    5'4"–5'7" 140–160 lbs 30"–31" Common for HS freshmen
    5'7"–5'10" 160–185 lbs 31"–32" Most common Most Common
    5'10"–6'1" 185–210 lbs 32"–33" Upperclassmen Most Common
    6'1"–6'4" 210–225 lbs 33"–33.5" Max for most HS players
    6'4"+ 225+ lbs 33.5"–34" Proven bat speed required
    Our Take on 34" BatsWe almost never put a high school player in a 34". Unless you are 6'4" and 225 lbs or bigger with proven bat speed, a 33" will serve you better. Most HS players swinging a 34" are giving up exit velocity without knowing it. Come in and we will put you on both in the cage.
    BTL TipWhen in doubt, go shorter. Bat speed wins every time. Come swing both lengths in our demo cage and you will know in 10 swings.

    Travel Ball
    USSSA Bats
    Travel ball and competitive youth leagues through 13U. Drop weight is tied to age. Confirm with your league rules before buying.
    Age Height Length Drop
    7–8 Under 4' 26"–27" -10, -11
    9 4'0"–4'3" 27"–28" -10
    10–11 4'3"–4'8" 28"–29" -10 Most Common
    12 4'8"–5'2" 29"–30" -8
    13 5'0"–5'7" 30"–31" -5
    BTL TipMost 13 year olds playing travel ball are on a -5. That is the right stepping stone before the jump to BBCOR. If your player is heading into 9th grade, get comfortable with the heavier drop now so the transition is not a shock.

    Little League & Rec Ball
    USA Bats
    USA Baseball is a different certification standard than USSSA. Required in Little League, Cal Ripken, Babe Ruth, and most rec leagues. A USSSA bat is not legal in a USA league and vice versa. Always check your league requirements before buying.
    Age Height Length Drop
    4–6 Under 3'8" 24"–25" -11, -12
    7–8 3'8"–4'0" 25"–27" -10, -11
    9–10 4'0"–4'5" 27"–28" -10
    11–12 4'5"–4'9" 28"–30" -8, -10 Most Common
    13+ 4'9"+ 30"–31" -8

    Summer Tournaments & Training
    Wood Bats
    All wood bats we carry are -3 drop. Sizing follows the same principles as BBCOR. Wood punishes poor bat speed more than any other type — when in doubt, go shorter.
    Height Weight Length Notes
    Under 5'4" Under 140 lbs 29"–30" Builds better contact habits
    5'4"–5'7" 140–160 lbs 30"–31" Good starting point for wood
    5'7"–5'10" 160–185 lbs 31"–32" Most common Most Common
    5'10"–6'1" 185–210 lbs 32"–33" Strong players Most Common
    6'1"–6'4" 210–225 lbs 33"–33.5" Max for most HS players
    6'4"+ 225+ lbs 33.5"–34" Proven bat speed required
    BTL TipIf you are playing travel or high school ball in Arizona, you are going to need a wood bat. Most summer tournaments around here are wood bat only. Wood is also the best training tool in the game — the sweet spot is smaller and mishits are unforgiving, which forces you to be more precise with the barrel and build better mechanics over time.

    Understanding Drop Weight
    Drop weight is the difference between a bat's length in inches and its weight in ounces. A 32" bat with a -3 drop weighs 29 oz.
