Facts as the maker states them, read 13 Oct 2026
The page sells a Birch bat, model PSSP61, with a standard 2.25 inch barrel that the page also calls long, and a .97 inch handle. The knob is described as a flared bell style.
| Model code | PSSP61 |
|---|---|
| Wood | BirchWhat this meansSofter 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 | Made from the same top grade birch as all our bats |
| Barrel | Standard 2.25" barrel; long barrelWhat this meansA thinner barrel (under about 2.45 in on a wood bat), with less wood to hit with. Its size does not decide the balance: some skinny-barrel bats are end-loaded. |
| Handle | .97" handle |
| Knob | BellWhat this meansThe handle widens into the knob like the bell of a trumpet. Players who choke up or want leverage like it; it also keeps the bottom hand from sliding off. Popular from high school up. |
| Lead time | Standard, Rush and ULTRA Rush production options, each followed by "Bat gets shipped estimate (not including delivery times)"; no timeframe on page |
| Availability | Made to order |
