BBCOR Swing Weights | Lightest & Heaviest BBCOR

It’s also worth noting that a bat’s listed weight doesn’t equate to its swing weight. Bats that are identical in scale weight can feel up to 10% different due to this distinction.

The endeavor to measure swing weights is extensive and costly. Acquiring the bats is just the start; we then meticulously determine the balance point, scale weight, and the bat’s pendulum period. The formula used to calculate swing weight is far from simple.

On Precision and Margin of Error

While we stand by the reliability of our swing weight measurements, we acknowledge they are not flawless. We estimate a reasonable margin of error to be within 2-3% in either direction. To the player, a deviation of a couple of percentage points is typically imperceptible. Even a 4% variation in swing weight is likely to go unnoticed.
