How it works

Three steps to
the middle.

Most bats are bought on looks, a sticker and a guess at the weight. We start with you instead.

  1. Take guard

    Ten quick questions: your height, where on the field your runs go, what your old bat gets wrong and what you want to spend. About two minutes, no sign-up.

  2. Get ten bats

    Ten bats, ranked, from every maker we list. Up top, a safe pick, a stretch and a wildcard, each with plain-English reasons, including the bits the maker doesn't publish.

  3. Make sure at home

    Pick up your ready-made bat, shadow-bat in the kitchen, feel the balance. Don't like it? Send it back within 14 days for a full refund.

The money-back guarantee

14 days.
Your living room.

A bat shop gives you ten minutes and a mirror. We give you two weeks with the bat in your own hands.

  • Feel it properly. Pick-up, balance, grip, how it sits at your guard.
  • Not the one? Send it back unused (no ball contact, no oil) within 14 days of delivery and we refund you in full.
  • Made-to-order bats are built for you, so they're not covered by the guarantee.

    Women's bats

    Built for you.
    Not cut down.

    Women's sizes are shorter in the blade and the handle, with a lighter pick-up. Our fitting asks for your size range first, and shortlists bats made in it.
