Made from the same rock maple as our game bats, and can be made with different handles to match your game model, this trainer gives you the exact feel of your game bat (handle, weight, length). The smaller 2 1/4" barrel forces you to concentrate on centering the bat on the ball. Miss the sweet spot, and you'll feel it in your hands, giving you immediate and true feedback. Great for tee work, soft-toss, and live batting practice.
