Introducing the most popular wood bat model in baseball; The SSK FT23 Pro Model! The SSK FT23 Pro Model is available in our Pro Maple that is North American Maple from Pennsylvania, which is maple from the hardwood capital of the world! Maple Bats are typically stiffer compared to Birch which is more flexible and forgiving while Maple has a more solid pop feel and Birch has more of a trampoline effect.

Bat billets are traditionally dried for 1 week, but at SSK, our billets are dried for 6 months before the bat making process begins. This extended drying process provides more flexibility in the bat, while ensuring ultimate hardness in the wood. At SSK we use a unique vacuum drying process which allows the whole bat to evenly and consistently dried. This means more pop.

SSK offers a 30-day warranty on all SSK Z9 Maple Wood Baseball Bats starting the day of purchase. SSK Z9 Professional Edge Wood Baseball Bats are the same exact bats that we send to our professional athletes. Every SSK Z9 Wood Bat is handcrafted to exact specifications to ensure the highest quality product. SSK Z9 Professional Edge Wood bats are handcrafted with North American Maple from Pennsylvania.
