Hey pingskills!

What is a better wood when it comes to good control and speed? Is it hard wood or soft wood? Thanks in advance! :)

Hi Jethro,

For more control I find softer wood better.  For more speed the harder wood is often better.  However, you can get a faster rubber on a softer blame and still get a lot of speed.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
