True wood – Ash is the most commonly used wood bat, specifically with Northern white ash being higher quality. Maple is making a name for itself, especially since it is what Barry Bonds uses. Prices range from $30-$60. Wood composite – A composite bat is a wood bat encased in a composite material that completely wraps the bat. The advantage is a bat with wood playing characteristics that has strength and durability approaching aluminum. This is the recommended bat of the SFNABA. Prices range from $70-$180.
