Old Hickory Bat Co. Mike Trout Maple Wood Baseball Bat (MT27M Adult)

To kick off our list of the top professional wood bats, who better to start with than the best player in the game?? Mike Trout's bat is the Old Hickory Co. Maple MT27M Adult. It features an end-loaded swing weight designed to maximize the power of any player's swing. It features a slightly flared knob and a pro cupped end to afford hitters better leverage with each swing.
