It's not Rocket Science, but it's close.

PowerWood Technology goes into every bat we make. But what goes into PowerWood Technology? High- tolerance joinery, True Hickory and Tanoak hardwoods, plus a special Fusion process, to name a few. All combine to create a bat that will never shatter or explode - something other all-wood bats can't do. No foreign materials like plastic, foam, metal or fiberglass. We stay true to the Baseball Tradition.

On top of all this is a finishing process that is unparalleled in the industry.  Powerwood bats are out there taking a beating for a long time so we developed a unique, 5 day long process that stands up to what the game dishes out and keeps the bat performing the same on day 500 as it does on day 1. There are 2 different products in 5 different coats on the barrel.  Heat cured.  The handle is asked to do different things than the barrel, so we came up with our own recipe that vacuum impregnates a Tung oil and resin mixture deep into the wood to seal it and provide resiliency, but not take away that "wood feel".  

The proof is in the PowerWood.

The Baseball Research Center put the PowerWood to the test.  In case you think our bats look "flexible" in these videos, rest assured they are not.  That's what happens when you hit a bat on the end of the barrel at 198 mph in 15,000 frames per second video!  And remember, the regular "pro model" wood bats broke a LONG time before they got to this point.
