How do you choose a softball bat?

This is a tough question to answer. A softball bat is a very personal thing. It depends on how old you are, how tall you are, and how strong you are.

Let me start by stating that the right softball bat is one you can swing! In fastpitch softball it is all about bat speed. The heaviest bat you can swing at FULL speed is the right bat.

There are two measurements for a bat. 1) Length, 2)Weight.

Weight can be anywhere from 18oz to 24oz. Length may be from 24" to 34".

A 5-7 year old may use a 24" bat. While an 18 year old may use an 34" bat.

There is one more measurement that you will see. The Weight-Length value. For example, a 20" bat that weights 30oz is a -10. Bats that are -10, -11, and -12 are very popular.

What is the difference between a baseball bat and a softball bat and can they be used in the different leagues?

A softball bat has a fatter barrel tot he bat, as well as a larger length-weight differential. Also, the length of the barrel is longer on a softball bat, as it starts lower on the bat. No they cannot be used in different leagues since softball bats have the larger length-weight differential (maximum in Major League Baseball is -3) and the barrel is too large (standard barrel is 2 3/4 ")

AnswerBaseball bat barrels are usually fatter in diameter, heavier and have adifferent COR value (this determines the speed the ball rebounds off the bat) the balls rebound is slower for a softball bat.
