i make my own bats

but they break alot so i dont use them in games

[TheCoolguynamedbrady]

@hightstownhyphy you can bone the bat to make it harder to break, it condenses the fibers making it stronger and also can hit farther, ted williams did this and any smart ball player should, you can take a glass bottle or a marrow bone and "bone" it just rub it up and down alot and it will create more pop and wont break as easily. The "natural' did this thats why his bat never had any blemishes

iiThink making bats looks cool!

[Lspurls18]

@TheCoolguynamedbrady it doesnt stop it from breaking- bats break on the handle.....

boning ash gives it the hardness of maple minus the added weight

Ummm, in this episode, the gentleman making the bats for Akadema should be wearing safety glasses per OSHA. Just looking out for ya man. Hate to see you get a violation for safety. Just look at ALL the saw dust. By the way, great ball gloves. My son owned one while he played for years. Looks as good as the first day we bought it. He played every game with it. Rain and Heat.

I made if quite clear I was discussing WOODEN BATS, so good eye kid. If you are going off topic and discussing gloves, balls, etc, NO company (yes literally none) in the USA make all of their products only in the USA when it comes to Baseball Sporting Goods Manufacturers.
