Both bats will have a balanced feel. The CU26 will have a thicker handle.
What is the weight in this bat?
The AP5NB has an approximate -3 length to weight ratio. Because wood has a different consistency from alloy or composite, the weight will be an approximate weight, not exact. A -3 length to weight ratio means the 31 inch will weigh approximately 28 ounces, 32 inch will weigh approximately 29 ounces, 33 inch will weigh approximately 30 ounces, etc. All you have to do to find the bat’s approximate weight is subtract 3 from the length of the bat to find its weight in ounces (i.e. 33 – 3 = 30 ounces). Because wood is a different consistency, that weight may vary by a half ounce or so.

ash or maple for power hitters?
Maple is a harder would, you should get a little more pop off of a maple bat.
Do these bats break very easily?
Marucci's "Bone-rubbed" process does make the bats more durable. But as with any bat, reasonable wear and tear, amount of use, some weather conditions, play a factor. But no, I don't believe it will break easily.
how heavy is this bat? is it a standard -3?
With wood, it isn't as exact as metal bats are with weights. Due to the moisture in the wood, the weights vary between a -2 to a -3.
Is the 33 inch bat 30 oz, are these drop 3's?
They are approximately a drop 3.
Looking for a -3 and I am leaning towards this bat. However, while your site says it is approximate -3 another site tells me that it is a -2. Help me understand the two different descriptions.
With wood bats, it is harder to be exact as with metal bats, on the weights. Moisture in the wood, and the types of wood play part of disparity. With adult bats the weights are approximately a -2 to a -3.
Is it possible to get this bat at 30 inch length?
Unfortunately, Marucci does not make this bat in a 30 inch model. Not many adult wood bats are available in a 30 inch model, but a few are: Louisville HM125BH, Rawlings 225LAP, Louisville M9C271BHC and Louisville M9C271NC.
