to all you big bad boys who check swing your painted ultras and mi**** your shaved bats. My team played in a wood bat league this fall on a baseball field. 310 in left 330 in center and 365 in right. We had the most even and competitive league and i had one player, the only player in the league to hit an over the fence homerun. It was hit with a 16 dollar louisville slugger. Over the left field fence by 20 feet. It was fun . I thought i would let you guys know so maybe yall could try it sometime

Its getting pretty popular down here in San Antonio. Not any leagues yet, but more and more small tournies are popping up.

Would love to see more of this. The bat companies probably dont want to see too much of this.

I dont think there is anyway that wood bat tournies would take over composite tournies. Right now I dont think that the bat companies are that worried about it in fact, Worth is embracing it by putting out the toxic wood bat out, which is pretty nice. I just think they are trying to do the best of both worlds. Composites for all and wood for the few that want to swing wood. my .02

Around here, the team with the painted Ultra found a way to cheat in wood bat league. They used a wood baseball bat. It's great having to call out bats in wood bat league.

WE can either swing wood softball bats or you can swing hardball bats. I ordered maple bb bat for this weekend. Thanks to the guys at Phoenix bats. Lefty can hook you up. He is a softball player alsol

I would love to play in wood tourneys or leagues. I haven't found any yet in southern Oklahoma though.

If we had a wood bat league around here, I'd play in it. I don't care if I have to swing a lead pipe, if it's softball I'll play.

Thought about giving this a try......we have one wood bat league around , only problem is they use a 40/375 ball....wish they would supply a little better ball tho? Was gonna look into getting a Worth Toxic wood bat to try out in bp for the heck of it.

40/375 seems to be about the norm, get an evil bamboom. TBH, the ball still flies, you just have to have a good swing and make solid contact. None of that cutting the ball crap.

Game on!
Our league this Fall went to all wood bat. It's been great. Wood bats you don;t have to worry as much when some idiot shoots the box. We have played in a tournament the last 5 years Labor Day Weekend that has a wood bat division. It makes the game a game again for sure.
