The 271 is balanced with a large barrel and a medium handle, a combination that has kept it in wide use with hitters at every level. This youth version comes in 28, 29, 30 and 31 inch lengths and gives young players a real beech game bat they can control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe 271 Youth Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob:\u003c\/strong\u003e flared, which helps balance the feel of the barrel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e medium, for a balanced feel with a large barrel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarrel:\u003c\/strong\u003e large, 2.25 inches, with a 3 to 5 inch sweet spot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeel:\u003c\/strong\u003e balanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Balanced Wood Bat Young Hitters Can Swing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoving to wood is one of the best things a young hitter can do for their swing, because wood rewards centered contact and a direct path to the ball. The 271 Youth keeps the weight light at 20 to 22 ounces in the 28 to 30 inch sizes, so younger players can swing it with good mechanics instead of muscling it. The 31 inch, 26 ounce size is a step toward the heavier adult bats for players getting ready to move up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Pro Grade Beech Brings to a Wood Bat\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeech is a dense, hard wood that has become a serious alternative to maple and birch for game bats. CamWood's Pro Grade Beech billets are graded to a slope of grain of 3 percent or less, which means the grain runs nearly straight down the length of the bat. Straight grain is the single biggest factor in how long a wood bat lasts, because a bat with grain that runs off the edge is far more likely to break on a jam shot. The hard surface also gives a firm, lively feel at contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurability:\u003c\/strong\u003e straight grain and a hard surface stand up to a full season of batting practice and games\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePop:\u003c\/strong\u003e dense wood gives a solid, responsive feel off the barrel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForgiveness:\u003c\/strong\u003e a generous 3 to 5 inch sweet spot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor best performance, hit with the logo facing up toward you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCupped End and Two-Tone Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery CamWood stock game bat comes with a cupped end, which removes a small amount of wood from the end of the barrel to bring the balance point slightly toward the hands. The finish is black on the barrel with a natural handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho the CamWood 271 Youth Pro Grade Beech Wood Baseball Bat Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 271 Youth is built for youth baseball players learning to hit with wood, whether for wood bat leagues, tournaments or simply better practice habits. Check your league rules for barrel diameter and bat standards before using it in games. Older and stronger hitters should look at the adult FT23, RA13 or Torpedo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePair It With a CamWood Trainer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCamWood trainers are sized to match the game bat, so the work done in practice translates directly.
