Choose from a Variety of Wood Baseball Bats
Wood baseball bats were the only bats used until the mid 1970's. Today, professional
baseball leagues still require wood bats. Most high schools and colleges use aluminum bats.
Some high school leagues have recently returned to use wood bats for safety reasons.
Most wooden bats are made of northern white ash. Maple has become popular, mostly due to the
success Barry Bonds had with the bats in 2001.
