Bats
drying after finishing |
Finally,
the famous Sam Bat® label, which was designed by Mr. Holman's
brother and niece to be easily recognizable on television and
from stadium seats, is applied. The familiar bat-shaped
logo is "clean and simple and allude(s) to a natural sense
of sonar", Mr. Holman says.
After about a day of drying, the baseball bat is ready to be
boxed and shipped. From start to finish, making a bat takes
about a week. However, during peak-order season (late December
through March), the process can take six to eight weeks, as
the staff works to complete orders in time for baseball's spring
training. For these professional players, the company makes
countless hand-carved bats in a diverse range of handle shapes.
In fact, Sam Bat® offers more than 300 models. The length, weight,
shape and taper of the barrel all factor into the custom design.
