Control rating of a bat

Bhavesh Gnnanapareddy Asked 9 years ago

Hi Alois/Jeff

Before a few months I had a bat with good control, however I bought a new bat few weeks ago and it's control was 60 whereas the previous bats control was about 90, but I didn't really feel any difference in the control of both the bats. What does the control of the bat indicate?

Hi Bhavesh,

The ratings are done by the manufacturers so they are a bit subjective.  The feel you have of the bat is a much better indicator.

Control is usually related to the speed.
