This summer, both the travel games and high school summer games are being played with wood bats. My son has broken three (each was a hit so he wasn't upset)plus a composite. That means we are on our fifth bat.
I understand that coaches believe using woods helps teach a better swing. But, bats cost the same in the summer as they do in the spring. It is getting expensive.
1. Do most of you agree and like using wood in summer.
2. Besides composite, which aren't always "live", arfe there any bats that "last longer". The maple explode, I can't find a good ash bat, and I'm not sure about the bamboo.
Help.
