Facts as the maker states them, read 13 Oct 2026
The Custom Cut PSPP is offered in Maple or Birch with a standard knob, a medium handle and a medium barrel. The page gives a -2 recommended weight, a slightly end-loaded feel, a 2.50 inch barrel and a .93 inch handle, and says it is similar to the Victus POP PIECE cut.
| Model code | PSPP |
|---|---|
| Wood | Maple or birchWhat this meansMaple. 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. Birch. Softer than maple and more forgiving of mis-hits; hardens with use. A good choice for a first wood bat and for younger players. |
| Wood grade | Minimum 20” of straight grain |
| Drop | −2What 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. |
| Barrel | Medium barrel; 2.50” in diameterWhat this meansThe middle of the range (about 2.45 to 2.55 in). Most pro turn models live here. Tip: A safe default when you are not sure. |
| Handle | Medium handle; standard diameter handle; .93” in diameterWhat this meansAbout 0.93 to 0.96 in. The usual choice: enough whip, enough strength. Tip: Most players never need to think about this one. |
| Knob | StandardWhat this meansA traditional round knob. The simplest feel and what most beginners should start with. |
| Balance | Slight end load |
| Ink dot | YesWhat this meansAn ink dot on the handle shows the maker tested the grain slope. It is required for maple and birch bats used in pro ball and is a good sign of wood selection on any bat. |
| Compared on the page | Similar to the Victus POP PIECE cut. |
| Warranty | 30 Days |
| Lead time | Standard, Rush and ULTRA Rush production options; 'Bat gets shipped estimate'; no day counts on page |
