Stay Sharp With Rawlings' Hand Eye Bat

Winter is a great time to perfect those small but significant parts of your swing.

Hone your hand-eye coordination with Rawlings' Hand Eye Bat.

The Hand Eye Bat (model number HANDIBAT) has the same length and feel as your game bat but is made with a 1” barrel to force you to focus on the ball. It is 33 inches long and balanced to give the same feel as a standard –3 bat.

The Youth Hand Eye Bat (model number HANDIBATY) also has a 1” barrel, but is a 30-inch bat that is balanced to give the same feel as a standard -10 bat.

Both training bats come with six 5-inch plastic training balls.

Rawlings' training bats are part of the 5-Tool Training Program. Rawlings has partnered with Ripken Baseball to produce this line of equipment to take players of all ages to the next level.

Every 5-Tool Training product includes drills and instructions to help you improve your baseball performance.

For a quick drill using the Hand Eye Bat, watch this Cal and Billy Ripken video.

The Ripkens will teach you a soft-toss drill using balls that are colored and numbered. By practicing with the Hand Eye Bat, you'll learn to identify the color and number before hitting the ball.

Rawlings' Hand Eye Bat is also available as part of the Deluxe Training Bundle (model number DELUXE_TB) and the Hit Pack II (model number HIT_PACK_II).
