Facts as the maker states them, read 13 Oct 2026
The JH-34 is offered in Birch or Maple in lengths 31 to 35 inches with weights from -3 oz to Even. The page describes a blend of balance and barrel control, and says it was built to match a player's swing and approach at the plate.
| Model code | JH-34 |
|---|---|
| Wood | Birch or mapleWhat this meansBirch. Softer than maple and more forgiving of mis-hits; hardens with use. A good choice for a first wood bat and for younger players. Maple. Dense and hard, the most common pro wood. Hits hard and holds up when the player squares the ball up; breaks rather than flakes when mis-hit. Quality varies a lot by maker. Tip: Maple from a good maker is the best wood bat money can buy; maple from a cheap one is the worst. |
| Drop | −3, −2.5, −2, −1.5, −1, −0.5, EvenWhat this meansDrop is length minus weight: a 30 in, 20 oz bat is a -10. A bigger drop number means a lighter bat for its length. Younger players use -10 to -13; USSSA 13U is usually capped at -5; high school and college are -3. Tip: Check the drop your league allows before you look at anything else. |
