How cool is this? BWP makes baseball bats. The same bats used by Shane Victorino and Manny Ramirez. Not only that, but they follow the process from the harvesting of the trees to the finished product
BWP produces about 2000 bats a week. Some of their best craftsmen are actually former baseball players. If they don’t know bats, who does?
BWP Bats start from select trees from Western Pennsylvania that are aged to maturity. They harvest the trees and select which ones are suitable for bats, which is less than 20% .
