FAQs

 
  • This is the question and why we made Freshbats. In the beginning when you first sign up, you’ll either fill out a detailed questionnaire that helps us understand your swing preferences and performance goals or you'll select the model of your choice. Based on your answers and/or selection, we’ll send bats that match your needs. Over time, we’ll adjust our recommendations based on your feedback.

  • The Training Plan costs $50/month and includes 4 Ash training bats per year. Training bats come unfinished or in Freshbats blue. Bats are typically shipped every three months.

    The Pro Plan is $115/month and includes 3 Ash training bats and 4 pro stock game bats. Default shipment plan typically starts with receiving a training bat and receiving a game bat within two months this allows for adjustments to color, model, length, and/or weight between shipments. From there and depending on the time of year, we will stagger between game and training bats. We will work with you on the best shipping schedule for you.

    The All-Star Plan is $149/month and includes 4 ash, maple, or brich training bats (we recommend ash for training) and 6 high-performance game bats. Default shipment plan typically starts with receiving a training bat and receiving a game bat within two months.

  • This is why we made Freshbats. Wood bats are notorious for feeling great one day and terible the next. If a bat doesn’t feel right, change up the model, length, and/or weight in your customer account and you will receive the new model, length, and/or weight in your next schedule shipment. We work with you and your feedback so we can ensure we send you a different model that better suits your swing profile or playing style. Find the bat made for you!

  • Our bats are made from ash, maple, and birch—each offering different performance characteristics.

  • This is part of your subscription. If the bat doesn’t feel right, adjust your model, length, weight, and/or color.

    If your bat was damaged in shipping (not while swinging or hitting), please reach out to us and we’ll ensure that you’ll have a bat in your hands.

  • Yes! The Pro and All-Star plans feature pro stock and big league inked-dot game bats. We partner with the best hard wood providers and have great bat technicians to ensure you’re receiving the highest quality bats available.

  • When you sign up, we ask you to fill out a detailed questionnaire about your swing style and preferences. This helps us match you with wood bats that fit your swing mechanics and performance goals. Over time, we’ll refine your selection based on feedback you provide after using the bats.

  • Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade your subscription at any time to better suit your needs. Whether you want more game bats or fewer training bats, we’ll accommodate the change without any hassle.

  • Take it from our years of professional hitting experience ash wood bats are ideal for training because they offer extra flex, which helps develop proper swing mechanics by providing a more forgiving feel. This flex also reduces sting on mis-hits, making practice more comfortable. Ash bats are highly durable, allowing for extended use in the cage without compromising performance. Their responsive nature works well with both game and practice baseballs, offering consistent feedback and helping players fine-tune their swing. This balance of flexibility, durability, and responsiveness makes ash the perfect choice for training and swing development. There is a reason that every major league baseball team outfits their spring training with ash bats every year to get their players ready for the season.

  • Currently, customization is available for the All-Star plan, where you can request specific models based on your preferences. In the future, we plan to offer additional customization options, such as custom paint, engravings or specialized bat fittings.

  • Bats are shipped directly from our cutting floor and central warehouse. We use reliable third-party logistics providers to ensure timely delivery. You’ll typically receive your frist bat shipment within 2-3 weeks of processing your order. We freshly cut all of our bats to ensure our customers have the freshest bats in their hands (hence our name). From there, we have schedule shipment dates for your next bat arrival. We will work with you on this schedule or we will use the default schedule for each plan. Customized bats typically have a longer processing time due to the customization.

  • At the moment, we don’t offer a trial period for individual bats before you subscribe.
