Description

If you've never heard of the patented Axe handle, you're missing out. The revolutionary design is exactly what it sounds like. The handle of an Axe bat is designed like the handle of an actual axe to provide optimal control and grip of the bat. This asymmetrical handle is biomechanically engineered for a flush fit and assists in keeping a hitter on the correct swing plane. As a result, players get better barrel accuracy and a decreased risk of injury and hand fatigue. Thanks to the Axe handle, the Hard Maple Composite Wood Bat has, without a doubt, an edge over other maple composite wood bats. And that's not the only advantage! To prevent breakage, Axe crafted the bat out of hard maple wood and made the handle out of a composite material. This ultimately provides players with total confidence and dominance at the plate! Speaking of confidence, Axe is so confident in the make-up of the Axe Hard Maple Composite Wood Bat they're offering a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. What do you have to lose? Axe: Unleash Your Swing! The Axe Hard Maple Composite Wood Bat features the USSSA 1.15 BPF Stamp. Free Shipping!

Axe Bat- Must Have youth Bat! Leo coach

Pros: I bought the Axe Bat to help my boys get a true feel of hitting a baseball without the extra enhancements those supercharged $300 bats bring. I wanted the closest thing to wood without having to buy a new bat every other week. The Axe Bat over delivers and more! It gives hitters immediate feed back after each stroke letting them know when they hit the ball well or not thus helping them learn how to hit a baseball. Those supercharged bats are great for show and winning travel games but are counter productive for a player that wants to improve as a hitter. They allow hitters to get jammed and still hit the ball well. How is that going to help them become better hitters in the long run? The Axe Bat will give them a real feel when hitters do not hit the ball on the barrel and also NOT break like a wooden bat thus giving you the best of both worlds. The Axe Bat will also make that awesome "crack" sound when you hit the ball hard on the sweet spot. Like old school! I Love it!

Cons: I've found no drawbacks to this bat. It was priced well. It does the job. I also like that unique handle! I think all travel leagues should adapt this bat for little league play. It will help bring back the true form of the game and eliminate the artificial enhancements the last decades of Aluminum bats have brought. It will also increase safety! If you want your player to have a comfortable bat with great durability and natural "wood" performance, this is your bat! It will help them become better hitters! I've player competitive baseball for 25+ years! This is a GREAT bat!
