M^Powered American Hickory Wood Bat: AH001 Cherry Adult

American Hickory wood is very hard, very stiff, very dense and very shock resistant. As stated in the U.S. Forestry Service pamphlet on "Important Trees of Eastern Forests," "there are some woods that are stronger than hickory and some that are harder, but the combination of strength, toughness, hardness, and stiffness found in hickory wood is not found in any other commercial wood." M^Powered is the only pro bat company that is turning pro grade Hickory. Once used in the dead ball era; M^POWERED BASEBALL HAS BROUGHT THIS PREMIUM WOOD BACK TO THE MARKET. The dead-ball era is a baseball term used to describe the period between 1900 and the emergence of Babe Ruth as a power hitter in 1919. In 1919, Ruth hit a then-league record 29 home runs, a spectacular feat at that time. The baseball was literally and figurtively DEAD in this era. Wood bat companies were hard pressed to find a wood that could drive this dead ball. That wood was HICKORY. In today's environment, Hickory will drive the ball further. Find out for yourself. Beacuse of the weight of this phenomenal wood, only tapered models are available. The M^Powered bats look like art, but are made to perform. Their bats are stylish, look the best of any professional bat available, and are made for high performance. Your bat is pampered from the harvesting process through the finishing process.
