A wood bat isn't as forgiving, and swinging at bad pitches, and mishitting can lead to stinging hands, and broken bats. With metal bats you may get away with swinging at more bad pitches, and making more mishits. Increased Pitch Discipline & Strike Zone Awareness It's true that metal bats also have a sweet spot, but they don't offer the same amount of feedback to the player, so you can never learn as much. Learning where the sweet spot is, is the key to making good contact, and thus getting the most out of each at bat. This is the optimal area in which to hit on a bat.
The sweet spot, as it is commonly referred to is the the chunky part of the barrel, usually located between two - six inches from the end of your bat. This in turn results in a more level swing, causing a a flatter trajectory with gradual rise for extra distance, which translates to more line drives, and beyond. The result: better balance to drive the ball. This means you end up with a more evenly distributed weight across the length of the bat. You can always make a lighter metal - wood has limitations. Wood baseball bats are more properly weighted, due to the manufacturing process and the limitations of the media. This causes your swing path to typically go from low to high, causing a high arc and increasing the probability of pop-flys. Using an end metal bat leads to a more golf club like swing. They are light, and end loaded - putting most of the weight in the barrel, or having a longer barrel. Performance Better Form & Improved Strength Wood bats sweep the competition in all three metrics, but let's take a deeper look at why. In this blog we'll look at three key metrics to ending the debate. Which is better? A Wood bat, or metal bat? However, for any batter that is trying to improve their swing, their batting average, their RBIs, or just their game in general - the debate is over. The great debate of which type of baseball bat is better has raged on for years, and will more than likely continue long into the future.
