Slow Pitch Softball Bats
Choosing the right bat is crucial! At HomerunMonkey.com™, our goal is to provide you with the perfect bat to suit your level and skill.
Unlike Fastpitch Softball where the speed of the ball generates much of the power for return speeds and distance, batters in Slowpitch Softball have to generate their own power in order to hit the ball at any distance. At up to 30 ounces, Slowpitch softball bats are heavier (by almost 7 ounces) than the heaviest Fastpitch softball bats (which top out at around 23 ounces). The barrel of a slowpitch softball bat is typically larger than that of a fastpitch softball bat. Larger and longer barrels sizes mean that your hitting "sweet spot" is also expanding.
Get the best slowpitch softball bats from top makers like Anderson, Combat, DeMarini, Easton, Louisville Slugger, Miken, Mizuno, Rawlings and Worth. Make HomerunMonkey.com your #1 resource for all your slowpitch softball and slowpitch softball equipment needs.
Choosing the right softball bat:
A. Length: The size and experience of the player should be your guide. The taller the batter, the longer the bat for better reach and more efficiency.
B. Weight: Test the weight of the bat by holding the bat out to your side in your weaker hand. You should be able to control the bat for at least 30 seconds.
C. Test Swing: When swinging a bat, you should hear the noise of the wind. If not, the bat is probably too heavy.
