The Easton® Pro Stix 271 adult wood baseball bat offers you the same quality used by many Major Leaguers. The professional-grade hardwood maple construction includes a 29/32-in handle and a cupped end.

Smooth, sleek, and powerful, the Pro Stix Maple 271 bat is identical in quality to the Easton bats used by more than 100 Major Leaguers. As the name implies, the bat is made of professional-grade hardwood maple--one of the strongest bat woods around. The durable material is generally more expensive than ash, but it pays off by holding up to far more at bats without sacrificing power. The black 29/32-inch handle, meanwhile, is notably comfortable regardless of how many hacks you take. Other features include a cupped end and a stylish honey-colored barrel with black graphics. So step up to the plate armed with the latest in wood bat technology with the Pro Stix Maple 271.

About Easton
In 1922, Doug Easton began crafting custom wood bows and cedar arrows in Watsonville, California. Although Doug produced tournament-grade, footed cedar arrows for the archery champions of that era, he was constantly frustrated with the inconsistency and lack of uniformity of wood shafts. Convinced that consistently straight uniform arrow shafts were impossible to manufacture from wood, Doug turned his attentions to aluminum. In 1939, he began manufacturing aluminum arrows in Los Angeles. His instincts about this material were correct, and in 1941, California archer Larry Hughes won the national championship with a set of Doug's aluminum arrows. This was the beginning of a trend that would change traditional archery and transcend into numerous other sports arenas over the next 50 years.

Easton is considered one of the world's preeminent innovators, designers, and manufacturers of sporting equipment. Much of this success is due to Easton's corporate strategy centered around producing products for the highest level of performance. Throughout its history, Easton has not only grown from within, but through the selective acquisition of other technology-based sporting goods companies.
