Your best swing starts with Whichbat.

Whichbat is an independent lab that objectively tests the performance and physical properties of baseball bats. In addition, we test and collect data on the biomechanical aspects of the baseball swing. The real magic comes in marrying that data and making it available to you, the consumer, in a usable fashion. Here is what you get after running a Whichbat Bat Match, a list of bats ranked specifically for your player.

Picking a bat for your baseball player is a complicated and confusing process - we've been there! When we set out to make such purchasing decisions ourselves, we relied upon the advice of coaches, instructors, fellow parents, online reviews, etc. The one thing that was common among all those sources was that the advice was based on subjective opinion.

As engineers and physicists, this just wasn't good enough. We recognized that there was much that could be done to make this a simpler process for parents and players alike, which it should be. Now, by simply entering a few pieces of information about the player, we can use our algorithm to provide you with the one thing we all crave most in this process - confidence that you've made the right choice for your player.

COMPREHENSIVE DATA-DRIVEN ANALYSIS

We use a combination of known and new methods to analyze the performance of commercially available bats. We don't just test the top-of the-line bats - we test a wide variety so that we can present you with as many options as possible. Our analysis begins with scientific and non-destructive methods to measure the characteristics of the bats. Then, we correllate those with biomechanical data from players, using our proprietary algorithm, to arrive at results that are personalized for each player. GET STARTED

INDEPENDENT SO YOU CAN FEEL CONFIDENT IN OUR RECOMMENDATIONS

We charge for our service. We do so to cover the costs of running the operation and to ensure that we can maintain complete independence from the bat companies, retailers, and other players in the market. Accordingly, we buy all of our bats and testing equipment just like you do. GET STARTED
