RichardHangHong Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 What type of baseball bat is used for tamashiwara (breaking)?I saw basball bats made specifically for breaking (slightly softer wood and a beat cheaper than a normal bat) on a website ages ago but have no idea where it is now. Tried Google but no joy.Does anyone know where I might be able to find some or do I just have to get normal bats?

lordtariel Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 I don't know specifically what type of wood the bat you were talking about was, but you can usually go to a place that sells wooden bats and choose from different types of wood. I don't do a lot of breaking though so I don't know what type of wood is best for it. There's no place like 127.0.0.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G95champ Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 major league baseball bats are make of Ash a soft wood.and most 95mph fastballs can break one. (General George S.

G95champ Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 BTW did you see the guy on Homan Weapon break the baseball bat with a forarm block? (General George S.
