hickory is much heavier than the other types of wood that are out on the market. This means less bat speed, but in baseball how far the ball goes depends on how fast one can get their bat to go. hope this helped a little bit

Bats can be made out of many different things, one of the most popular is aluminum. Titatnium is tougher than aluminum, but is banned in some softball leagues. Wood is another possibility, but it is often heavier than aluminum. Many different alloys can also be used to make a bat.
When a ball is being struck by a bat it certainly exerts a reaction force on the bat. But the bat does not move backward because the reaction is not enough to move the bat as it is much heavier than the ball. The reaction force is felt by the person who strikes the ball with the bat through his arm. If the ball is heavier than the ball the bat will surely get the reaction force and move back.
No. A BBCOR bat is made out of a "dead" metal substance. The composition of these bats makes them work more like wood bats, but not exactly like them. Any given metal bat will hit farther than wood bats. This is why you see people trying to break distance hitting records with metal bats as opposed to the wood.
No Babe Roth's bat was actually pretty heavy, heavier than average today.
