Fastpitch Bats (-10 Drop)
The Gold Standard. The -10 Drop is the most popular weight in the game, offering the perfect balance of swing speed and power. Designed for High School, College, and Elite Travel Ball hitters.
Why -10 is the Industry Standard
If you aren't sure which bat weight to buy, the -10 (Drop 10) is almost always the correct answer for players aged 13+.
Not sure on size? Watch this guide to sizing Fastpitch bats:
1. What does -10 Mean?
The "Drop" is the difference between the bat's length (in inches) and its weight (in ounces). A 32-inch bat with a -10 drop weighs 22 ounces. This ratio provides enough mass to drive the ball to the fence while remaining light enough to catch up to 60mph+ pitching.
2. Who should swing it?
This is the primary bat for High School and College hitters. If a player is transitioning out of 12U and into 14U or High School, moving from a -11 to a -10 is the necessary graduation step to handle faster pitching and create more exit velocity.
