Rawlings Wood Baseball Bats

Two Ball Soft Toss
This drill will teach the hitter to concentrate and keep their weight back. The coach will toss two balls. The coach will then call out top or bottom after the balls are released. The hitter will hit the called ball into the fence or screen.

Fungo Golf
When you get to the ball field early and have some spare time, grab some buddies and play some fungo golf (fungos are best but any bat will do). Pick a spot on the field to hit to and tee off. The person to hit the target in the least amount of strokes wins the hole. Pick different targets all over the field and get in as many holes as possible before the rest of the team shows up. Believe it or not this game will help with bat control.

How do I choose the right bat?
In most cases, bats are measured in inches and weighed in ounces. Typically, a bigger, stronger player will prefer a longer heavier bat, while a smaller player will prefer a shorter lighter bat. Since a player's power is generated through bat speed, it is important that you can swing your bat through the strike zone at maximum speed. Keep in mind that the right bat for you is based on personal preference. Make sure the bat you pick feels good when you swing it.
