BTL Staff Review

The Black Label is a smart way to add an Old Hickory maple bat to your rotation at a lower price than a specific player model. Each bat can have its own profile, which gives the line a little individuality, but every one is made from pro-grade maple and includes the ink-dot test. We like it as a straightforward option for players who want a quality bat for games, practice and regular wood-bat work.

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.

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.
