A Review of Popular Baseball Bats
Choosing the right baseball bat is as important as batting
technique or selecting the right pitch to blast over the center
field fence. There are many different kinds of bats designed for
Little Leagues, Senior Leagues, college, and pros. Each league
has a set of parameters for barrel width and length dimensions.
It can be downright overwhelming when you consider the variety
of baseball bat brands, materials, styles, and qualities. Let's
take a peek at two of the best bats available: Easton and
Demarini.
Easton baseball bats tout powerful barrels that are lightweight
and have a comfortable grip. Easton is a high-quality bat, and
these reputable bats can be expensive, costing over $200.
However, Easton also offers a wide range of bats that are
reasonably priced, crafted out of wood, aluminum, and high-tech
alloys. Easton has been a powerful force of innovation within
the baseball bat industry. Easton launched its first line of
stronger aluminum bats in the late 1970's, and has been
innovating ever since.
Easton fuses science and art by shaping swift barrels and
handles, while utilizing high-tech metals like titanium and
specialized aluminum alloys. Many of their bats are reinforced
with double walls, which not only strengthens the barrel but
also strengthens the
ball-to-bat pop. Easton baseball bats are
designed for all leagues and cater to serious baseball players.
The key to their success has been innovation and durable
products that have a high customer loyalty rating.
Demarini baseball bats are highly respected industry-wide. They
rocked onto the scene in 1990. Innovative and reasonably priced,
Demarini unleashed a double walled bat that quickly earned it a
place in the baseball bat market. Demarini boasts a line of bat
models specially designed for slow pitch, fast pitch softball,
and baseball.
Recently, Demarini unfurled an exciting Flex model that is
endowed with a flexible, composite handle. This gives the batter
unprecedented power to catapult the ball via the recoiling
action that pops the ball with extra force. Demarini baseball
bats have a wide price range, from under $100 to over $300, and
offer just about any player at any level a solid choice they can
feel confident about.
