Maple!
You should always get a hard maple bat. If you are getting a maple bat then you want something hard that is why maple is so popular because of the density and strength of the wood. If someone is trying to sell you soft maple it is because it is being made out of their bad billets.
Yes there is and the "F" word is written so it can clearly be seen on the knob of the bat.
Louisville Slugger's maple bat models are called M9 models. This is what is next to the trademark on the bat. It is simply the model name they chose for their maple bats.
