Dave dips the barrel of the bat, but sprays the handle so that pine tar actually works on the bat. As you can tell in the picture, there is no aesthetic difference between the handle and barrel though. I can tell you that after using these bats for the past two years, I will never look at a Marruci again. The quality is second to none. They are much harder bats than any Marucci model. In my opinion, they are the best bats out right now. Chandler, Old Hick, LS
They sound great, how durable are they? I play in a wood bat league where guys are throwing mid to upper 80's and I've broke a lot of wood bats, recently I've switched to wood composites like the demarini wood bats which are basically unbreakable and cost about $130. The performance sounds amazing for the chandler bats and I would love to get one or two for game bats, but I'm just wondering if they are worth the $175 and will last me for a while.
They are more durable than any bat I have ever seen. Composite or all wood. I have been using them for the past two years, and I have not broken my first one yet. My first one still has their old logo from 2009. When I picked up my two new bats Wednesday from their factory in Norristown, PA, they had just received a bat bought by a minor league player during a perfect game tournament in Florida THREE YEARS AGO. He just broke it this past weekend after three years of minor league baseball.
My only advice/con of these products is to check Perfect Game's website (perfectgameusa.com) and see when the tournaments are. If they are local, take a trip over to the tournament and buy one for cheap. If they are not local, WAIT until the tournament is over to order them, because when these tournaments take place, Dave literally takes his business to wherever the baseball is, so if you order bats during the tournaments, it will take forever for you to receive your bat. (The anticipation kills me inside, so this was a big help for my ordering)
Good luck guys, post pics if you get them, and when you order, tell Dave or Ty Hill that John Lynn sent you.
