Ended up getting an Old Hickory MT27 in maple. Bullseye! Took my son out for some BP today with it and that was the best I have ever seen him control a wood bat. He said that was the most easiest swinging woody he has ever swung before. He said the American Batsmith MT27 felt a bit heavier and end loaded compared to the Old Hickory. So after trying trying many numerous companies and turns I think he has finally found one that works for him.
