Facts as the maker states them, read 13 Oct 2026

Chandler custom-crafted bat named Hades with a traditional knob, medium handle thickness, long barrel size, short barrel taper, and an end-loaded feel. The description says it takes cues from its Helios brethren with slightly reduced whip.

BarrelBarrel Size: Long; Barrel Taper: Short
HandleHandle Thickness: Medium
What this means

A handle near 1 in or more. It feels closer to a metal bat, takes sting out of mis-hits, and in wood it lasts longer. Makers recommend it for players moving from metal to wood.

Tip: If your player is switching from metal to wood, start here.

KnobStandard
What this means

A traditional round knob. The simplest feel and what most beginners should start with.

BalanceEnd loaded
What this means

Extra weight toward the end of the barrel, so the bat swings heavier than its number. For some players it gives a better feel for where the barrel is; whether it suits yours depends on how consistently they deliver the barrel. End load is not barrel size: some skinny-barrel bats are end-loaded.

Tip: An end-loaded bat that feels heavy is the most common sizing mistake we see.
