In the days of baseball past, professionals used to literally used tree logs for their pro wood bat. The allowed length in pro ball is a 42″ bat. I’ve held some models used by the baseball giants and two common things where the length 35″ and the bats where heavy.
The c243 is one of those model designed after this thinking and those players. The barrel is the largest in the game and through the years has gone through some design changes. Hitting with the NYStix Empire 243 might alter the path of your swing when used initially.
Hand strength and swing discipline are important with this model.
Alternatives to the 243 are I13 or AJ9 .

Hitting the ball solidly was like an aluminum bat without the “Ding!” Just waiting to hit that homerun or a triple with my new bat. Thank you NY Stix and friends who advise this quality bat.
