    Things we learned in Wood Bat Madness 1.0:
    -Wood bat performance is much less about the brand name, and more about the wood species, wood density, and bat turn model.
    -Small wood bat companies apparently have routine access to pro-quality wood. A lot of big-names were upset by smaller brands in this tournament.
    -We actually are starting to prefer wood bats with slightly smaller barrels as opposed to big beefy barrels like the VG2, SG2, and CY22. By having a smaller barrel, you can use a higher-density piece cut of wood while still maintaining a reasonable swing weight.
    -Birch wood performance is allll over the place. The winning bat in the tournament was Birch, but also some of our least favorite bats in the tournament were Birch. In our opinion, Birch is unmatched as long as it has been pre-compressed by a machine or roller.
    -When swinging wood bats, you really begin to understand how much the handle/knob setup influences a bat's performance and how a player swings that bat. We preferred thinner handles with a smooth gradual taper.
    -Hitting with real wood is very expensive lol. Especially with a lighter-swinging wood bat, you're gonna burn through a lot of $$ with broken bats.

      I’m not saying I’m right or y’all are wrong but I actually prefer thicker handles on a wood bat, I don’t really hit for average I bat 5 hole but maybe it has something to do with how I’m a non batting glove psychopath lol

    Great vid once again! I've got a few things to say:
    First of all, Trace, I'm so sorry for your loss. Sounds like your dad was a wonderful man. Just know that you and your family are in our prayers, and that you have love and support from every single one of us fans. Stay strong. 🙏🏻 R.I.P. Brad.
    Second: long time viewer, first time commenter! I stumbled across your channel back in July, and I have now watched every single one of your videos. You guys are super entertaining and informative. Y'all do a great job! Thanks to your videos, I know what BBCORs I'm going to try before next season, and that whichever one I choose will be one of the best.
    Third: Do you think the Chandler RA13 is worth the extra $50 compared to the Louisville Slugger version? I am definitely considering getting one of the two when I need a wood bat.
    Fourth: Speaking of the RA13, if you follow the Braves like I do, you may have noticed that Ronald Acuña Jr. is now swinging an uncupped version of the RA13. I wonder how that would affect the performance.
    Thanks again, Bat Bros! Keep up the good work! 👍🏻

    • @MACKEYP
      @MACKEYP 3 роки тому +1

      For someone who has swung both they r both great options. Chandler bats have a really unique feel and a nice crisp sounds they feel like they got a lot of pop. The ra13 from slugger definitely feels dense and u can tell it’s a hard ass bat. I’d say the chandler is definitely with the extra 59 tho. Uncupped helps a ton w miss hits on the end I think it feels/performs better
