When it comes to choosing a softball bat, it is important to remember that Fastpitch Softball Bats differ greatly from Slowpitch Softball Bats. The barrel end of the shaft on fast pitch bats results in a smaller "sweet spot". Slowpitch bats tend to be heavier.
For baseball players, deciding between aluminum and wood bats is a crucial, personal choice. Aluminum bats are lighter and have more easily adjusted weight distribution. Since wooden bats are solid, the center of gravity is further away from the handle. This causes the bat to feel heavier near the end, but also results in less recoil and vibration. Overall, the wooden bat has more potential power, but the aluminum bat is easier to use. Heavier bats are typically used by bigger, stronger players to maximize power. Lighter bats allow for greater bat speed. Longer bats give you greater reach but can also result in a heavier weight, which can slow you down.
Little League players should remember that lighter is better... the lighter the bat, the easier it is to control. Be sure to check your league regulations for type (wood or aluminum) as well as maximum length and weight. Look for a bat with a comfortable grip, good pop, great traction and a large sweet spot.
