Dutch Team to promote special designed bat of BuntDown Bat

Nederlandse tekst

SAN DIEGO, California (USA) / NIEUWEGEIN (Netherlands) - During the upcoming indoor practice sessions, but also during the following outdoor practices, the Dutch National Softball Team will use and promote a specially designed bat, developed by BuntDown Bat. This bat will be specifically used during bunt drills.

The BuntDown Bat is a training device that provides an innovative way to teach baseball and softball players the proper way to bunt.

Although similar in size to a conventional bat, it differs in shape. The hitting surface is half-round from just above the trademark to the end of the bat. This unique shape encourages the batter to keep the bat over the path of the ball which is essential when bunting properly.

When used properly, the BuntDown Bat teaches the batter to hit the ball down to the ground and not pop it into the air. Repeated use effectively teaches muscle memory and focus, reinforcing the most important elements of bunting.

Interested in this product? Then contact the coaching staff of the Dutch National Softball Team.
