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.
