Rawlings Youth Ash Wood Baseball Bat | Multiple Styles

First-off, to address many other reviews, wooden baseball bats break. Always have and always will. After purchasing four separate sizes/weights of these bats, my son finally broke his first one. He is almost 13, but bigger and stronger than the average 12 year old boy. He broke a 29” model on a 50 MPH fastball from a batting cage after hitting 4-5 in a row which would have been home runs at a little league park. The only reason the bat broke (like most major league broken bats) is because this pitch rode up the handle and off the barrel. These are wonderful and very affordable bats that are perfect for any 10-14 year old brave enough to explore the use of the more complex wooden bat over the typical aluminum/alum hybrid bats routinely used in little league. If your kid breaks one, as will routinely happen with wooden bats at any level, use that as a teaching moment and get a new one. Lastly, I have now purchased and used 4 of these bats, and the first two were 29" long while the last two bats were 30" long. The first two (29") bats weighed 548g and 720g, and the second batch of two (30") weighed 625g and 656g. Therefore, I agree with the various reports of inconsistent bat weights, and this is common with non-major league baseball bats. If you want wooden baseball bats that are balanced, without defects, with consistent weight and length parameters, you will need to pay $100-$200 each for major league quality bats. Until my kid or yours hits the majors, I say let them break a few $25 bats that are well made but not perfect. It sure beats $200 a pop!

As some other reviews mentioned, the bat is fine, but the weight is off. It is marketed as -7. However, the 31" bat I ordered only weighed 20.5oz. In other words drop 10.5... My son's LL bat is -10 so not a huge deal, but I ordered it so he could have a wood bat to practice with that was also slightly heavier...

I loved the sound and it was very lightweight easy to swing and make contact

Used this bat in my sons wood bad tournament and it did great. Got a nice solid hit to the outfield and his teammates liked it as well!

perfect for BP!

I bought this for my husband that wanted an inexpensive bat to hit fly balls to our son. He has enjoyed it thus far and even hit the cages with it for fun!

The one we received was much lighter than the description. Ordered the 31/24 (-7). Son said, “It’s too light”. After weighing it, we realized it weighed closer to 20oz (-11). After reading other reviews I see that others had the same issue. Decided to send it back.

Satisfied with purchase

Regalo para mi hijo. Teóricamente para su estatura le corresponde un bate algo más grande pero él lo prefiere justo de la medida escogida (28 pulgadas). La sensación al batear es muy muy buena y el bate aguanta perfectamente todos los swings. Además la textura y apariencia de la madera y del barnizado son de calidad (aunque eso siempre irá a gustos).

My son used it once to play ball. He hit the baseball with the bat and the force of the hit split the bat in two.Not happy at all.

Trop et très très très long pour la réception de ce produit vraiment hyper déçus sinon le produit en lui même est très bien.

Déçu car le baton recçu n'est même pas plein ...
