A classic wooden baseball bat made of Birch Wood. A drop weight of -2.5 therefore a bat that is made for players who are looking mainly for power with a heavy bat.
Birch wood has a similar flex to Ash, but doesn’t flake which is similar to Maple. In other words it has the best characteristics of each wood. However a brand new Birch bat does take some "breaking in". Birch requires some batting practise to compress the wood to make it harder.
