There are many types of wood that these bats are made of. I would say the 2 most popular are ash and maple. Maple is a harder wood (which I prefer) but the down side is is that it is the kind of wood that splinters which makes it fly through the air. Ash usually just cracks but stays intact when it breaks. They are looking into this as a safety issue but hopefully they don't outlaw maple.
