Determine Your Bat Weight:
  • Bats are weighted in ounces, and Rawlings does a great job in balancing the bat's weight to its length.
  • Many bats have a weight-to-length ratio (drop ratio), shown as -4, -6, etc. For example, a 34-inch bat with a -6 ratio weighs 28 ounces.
  • Selecting the proper weight depends on two critical factors--your strength and your hitting style

  2. Stand erect with arms at sides. Measure across the back from where you can feel the shoulder bone on one side to where the bone ends on teh opposite side. Round up to the next half inch and record dimension. Measurement must be checked at least once a year or upon noticeable increase in weight or body size.
  3. Once the shoulder measurement has been determined, select the pad correctly sized to the shoulder measurement.
