5.0 / 5

Tater bats have been my go-to since 2017, and they’ve never let me down. The quality of the wood is top-notch, giving me the confidence to swing with power and control every time I step up to the plate.

I trust Tater because their craftsmanship is unmatched, and their bats have the perfect balance of durability and pop. Whether in practice or in a game, I know I’m using a bat that helps me perform at my best.

BALANCED WOOD BAT MODELS

Balanced and slightly balanced bats keep the weight close to your hands, so the bat is quick through the zone and easy to control. A great fit for contact and gap hitters, and anyone moving from metal to wood.

Shop Balanced

SLIGHTLY-END LOADED WOOD BAT MODELS

A little extra weight in the barrel adds carry while the swing stays quick. The next step for hitters who mix contact and power.

Shop Slightly-End Loaded

END-LOADED WOOD BAT MODLS

Power hitters often prefer bats with an end-load, or top-heavy feel. More of the bat’s mass is located in the barrel, meaning its force will be greater at contact compared to lighter barrels moving at the same speed.

Pro Wood Baseball Bats, Custom and Stock, Made in Connecticut

Tater Baseball builds pro-grade wood baseball bats in our Cheshire, Connecticut shop, from the same MLB-grade billets we turn for professional hitters like Nick Kurtz and Starling Marte. Every bat is hand-finished, weighed and inspected before it ships, whether it's a custom build cut to your spec or a stock model ready to go.

Custom or stock: which is right for you?

Choose a custom wood bat when you know what you want: your turn model, length, drop, wood, colors and engraving. Custom bats are built to order and ship in about 10–14 business days.

Choose a stock wood bat when you need a proven model now. Stock bats come in our most popular turns and configurations and ship in 1–2 business days. Both use the same wood and the same finishing process. The difference is timing and personalization, not quality.

Shop by how you swing

How the weight sits in a bat changes how it feels through the zone.

  • Balanced bats keep the weight close to your hands for quick swings and barrel control. Best for contact and gap hitters, and anyone moving from metal to wood.
  • Mid-loaded bats put the weight in the middle of the bat: the speed to handle velocity, with mass behind contact.
  • Slightly end-loaded bats add a little extra weight in the barrel for carry while the swing stays quick. The next step for hitters who mix contact and power.
  • End-loaded bats put more weight at the end for maximum momentum through contact. Built for strong, experienced power hitters.

Maple or birch?

Every Tater game bat is made from hard maple or yellow birch. Maple is the most popular wood in pro ball: dense and hard, so the barrel stays firm and the ball jumps off it. Birch has slightly more flex, which makes it more forgiving on mis-hits. Not sure which fits your swing? Our bat finder takes five quick questions and matches you to a model and size.

Finding the right size

Length, weight and drop matter as much as the model. Use our wood bat size chart to match length to your height and age. Younger players can start with our youth wood bats, sized and weighted to build good habits early.

How every Tater bat is built

We've been turning bats in Connecticut since 2015. Every game bat we sell is graded for straight grain and carries the ink dot that certifies it. Each one is turned, sanded, finished and checked by hand in our shop, for players from Little League to the big leagues, and every wood bat is covered by our 30-day warranty.

Train with wood, too

Wood rewards squaring the ball up, which is why hitters at every level train with it. Pair your game bat with a training bat to build bat speed, hand path and barrel control between games.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between custom and stock pro wood baseball bats?
Custom wood bats are cut to your exact spec — turn model, length, drop, wood species, finish, and engraving — and ship in 10–14 business days. Stock wood bats are proven models we keep ready on the shelf in popular configurations, and they ship in 1–2 business days. Both use the same pro-grade billets and the same hand-finishing process. The difference is timing and personalization, not quality.
What wood species do you use for pro wood baseball bats?
Hard maple (the most popular pro choice — dense and durable) and yellow birch (slightly more flex, forgiving on mis-hits). All billets are pro-grade hardwood, turned in the USA at our Cheshire, Connecticut shop.
Are Tater bats approved for high school, college, and pro play?
Yes. One-piece solid wood bats are allowed in high school and college play (BBCOR certification applies to metal and composite bats, not wood), and Tater bats are swung by MLB players including Starling Marte and Nick Kurtz.
