would like to buy online...anyone have recommendations for a type of bat and website to get it?

Loiusville Slugger Pro Stock is what a local shop sells but they don't have a 31/28 in stock.

If not Marucci, try these. Adult league team I was on a couple years back ordered 3 of these every year. Customizable and all.

Marucci pro cut. They are their MLB styled wood bats, but they have imperfections so they dont sell them at full retail. Typically $40, or so they used to be. For example, Pujols only swings bats that weights like 31.8 ounces on the dot, and he weighs them upon receiving them, so anything that doesnt spec out to that Marucci sells off. Also other bats where the stain is goofed up or where the length wasnt exactly perfect they sell off. But I see their prices have gone up recently haha

Those Academy Sluggers blow. Not durable at all haha Got one a few years back and went to the cages only for it to crap out after about a dozen pitches. Chicken, also check eBay "Maple wood bat"

We have a wood bat tourney coming up the week after July 4. They are always interesting. You should try one if you haven't. Also, I'd look on Justbats.com like the other poster said.

I have the hook at Marucci. Contact me offline and I can set you up. Does this site have Private Message or do you have my email from my registration? I can't remember and I am drunk in a bar in Chicago watching the LSU game.

think you already got some good answered so I will ask my question.

Do a lot of people call it Drop 3? We always said Minus 3. Never heard this term used before
