Tater CB15 Pro — The Power Hitter Wood Bat

Power hitter wood bat design is about one trade-off. The bigger the barrel, the harder the bat is to swing. The CB15 Pro is built for hitters who have already solved that trade-off — advanced power hitters with the bat speed to handle an end-loaded feel and the mechanics to use it. The 15/16" handle keeps the swing manageable. The extra-large barrel does the damage.

This is an advanced hitter wood bat in the most literal sense. New hitters and contact-focused players will find the end-load harder to control than a balanced or slight end-load profile. Power hitters who already work the barrel and stay through the ball get a bat that translates their swing into exit velocity.

Why advanced power hitters pick the CB15

The 243-inspired profile is one of the most-trusted power-bat shapes in pro baseball. The CB15 takes that profile and pairs it with a 15/16" thin handle — slightly thicker than the thinnest pro grips, which adds a touch of break resistance without losing bat speed. The extra-large barrel and traditional knob design completes the build. Same wood, same turning logic, same hand-finishing as the bats we cut for hitters at the pro and college level. Family-owned since 2015, 500–1,000 bats a week out of our Cheshire, Connecticut shop.

Maple or birch?

Maple gives the CB15 the hardest hitting surface and cleanest "pop" sound off the barrel — the standard pick for a power-hitter end loaded wood bat. Birch flexes a touch more and is more forgiving on mis-hits. The extra large barrel wood bat profile stays the same with either species. Read more in our Maple vs Birch vs Ash guide.

Tater® vs. other brands

There's a reason pros are switching to swing Tater®

Most wood bats are made for retail shelves — lower-grade lumber, bulk machining, inconsistent pop. The Tater® Wood Bat is hand-split, hand-finished, and bone-rubbed to MLB standards.

  • Higher density wood lasts longer and provides better “pop” off the barrel.
  • Ink dot tested to prove our bats meet professional standards.
  • Hand-split wood follows the natural grain, making bats stronger, more durable, and less likely to break.
  • Bone rubbing compresses the wood fibers, making the bat harder, improving durability, and increasing ball exit speeds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the Tater CB15 Pro built for?
The CB15 is built for advanced power hitters. The extra-large barrel and end-loaded feel are designed for players who have already developed the bat speed and mechanics to drive heavy bats — typically experienced high school, college, and adult-league power hitters. New hitters and contact-focused players will find the end-load harder to control than a balanced profile. If the swing isn't built around driving the ball, this isn't the right bat. If it is, the CB15 rewards every swing.
How is the CB15 different from the Tater 243 Pro?
Both bats are inspired by the 243 turn family, both have extra-large barrels, and both run end-loaded. The key difference is handle gauge. The CB15 uses a 15/16" handle — slightly thicker than the thinner pro-grade handles, which adds a touch of break resistance without losing bat speed. The 243 Pro runs thinner for hitters who want the absolute fastest bat path. If you're a pure power hitter who's broken a few thin-handle bats, the CB15 is the play. If you prioritize bat speed above all else, the 243 Pro.
What's the lead time on a Tater CB15 Pro?
Custom build, approximately 10-14 business days (2-3 weeks).
What size wood bat should I order?
Length ranges from 30"–34". Drop weight (length-to-weight ratio) ranges from -3 to +2. Drop weight is the difference between bat length in inches and bat weight in ounces — a -3 drop means a 34" bat weighs 31 oz. Most adult hitters use 32"–34" at a -2 or -3 drop. Most BBCOR-certified leagues (high school, NCAA) require -3. For a personalized recommendation by height, weight, and league, use our Wood Bat Size Chart at /pages/wood-bat-size-chart.
What types of wood are Tater bats made from?
Hard maple and yellow birch — both MLB-grade. Maple has been the pro standard for over 20 years: densest, hardest hitting surface, biggest pop on clean contact, but a smaller sweet spot and less forgiveness on mis-hits. Birch sits between maple and ash — similar density to maple with more flex on impact, which makes it more forgiving on mis-hits and a smart starting point for hitters transitioning from metal to wood. Read the full breakdown in our Maple vs Birch vs Ash guide at /blogs/the-lumber-yard/differences-between-maple-birch-and-ash-bats.
Do you offer discounts for team or bulk orders?
Yes — team and bulk pricing is available, typically starting at 12 bats. Contact our team sales desk with your spec, roster size, and timing through /pages/contact-us and we'll send a custom quote within one business day. The more bats in the order, the better the per-unit pricing scales.
Are Tater bats suitable for professional play?
Yes. Tater Baseball is an MLB-supplier wood bat company — our bats are swung by professional players at the highest level of the game. There is no separate "consumer-grade" production line. The same MLB-grade billets, the same hand-finishing process, and the same QA standards apply to every retail bat we ship as to the bats we cut for pro hitters.
What is the warranty on Tater wood bats?
30-day limited warranty on structural cracking under normal field use. To qualify, the bat must be a 2021 model year or later, you must be the original purchaser with proof of purchase from an authorized Tater dealer, and you must have followed our hitting guidelines (no cage-style dimpled balls, no storage in extreme heat or cold like a car trunk, no excessive moisture exposure). Full warranty terms and care guidelines at /pages/tater-wooden-bat-warranty.
Why are wood bats cupped at the end?
Cupping is a small concave dish drilled into the end of the barrel. It removes a few grams of mass from the very tip, which shifts the bat's balance point slightly toward the hands and makes the swing feel quicker through the zone. Tater hand-cups each bat, and our process allows for variable cup depths to dial in feel without compromising end-cap strength — which actually reduces the risk of chips and cracks on inside pitches.
What is the black dot on the handle?
Every Tater maple and birch bat carries an ink dot near the handle as proof of MLB-grade slope-of-grain certification. The ink dot's bleed pattern reveals whether the wood grain runs cleanly along the bat's long axis — a tight bleed means safe, MLB-spec slope; a fast bleed means rejected billet. The dot is the visible proof every bat passed inspection before leaving our shop.
