14u son will be playing some wood bat tournaments starting in the spring and so I would like to get him a new wood bat for Christmas. He has a 32" Marucci blem that he practices a lot with, and even though he hits ok with it it is very heavy - almost 31 oz. - and I was hoping to find a similar or better quality bat that is more a true drop 3 32/29. I notice that Marucci has a "custom pro" option where you can specify the drop (up to drop 4, for an extra $10) - would that be a good option? I'm also interested in normal weights for other good bat companies like LS, Chandler, Mizuno? What closer-to-drop-3 wood bats would you recommend for a 14u?
