Length exposes everything. The Tater® 36" Long Bat Trainer is a 36-inch, 36-ounce wood training bat that makes you control the barrel. If your hands cast or your sequencing is off, you feel it right away. When it's right, the barrel stays through the zone.
Originally built for the Toronto Blue Jays, it's now available as a stock bat for hitters at every level.
What the Long Bat Trainer builds
- Barrel awareness & control: the extra length gives immediate feedback on where the barrel is.
- Rotational sequencing: trains you to move efficiently and use the ground to create bat speed.
- Bat path: helps prevent rolling over and keeps the barrel on plane.
- Strength & bat speed: a long, heavy overload bat to pair with your underload work.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from a fungo bat?
A fungo is a light coach's bat for hitting ground balls and fly balls. The Long Bat Trainer is a heavier overload bat for hitters, built to improve barrel control and swing sequencing.
How do I use a long bat trainer?
Start with tee work and soft toss, keep reps controlled, and finish the session with your game bat. The free eBook has sample programs.
Do I need extra space?
Yes. At 36 inches, give yourself more room than usual, especially in a cage or indoors.
Do you offer team or bulk pricing?
Yes, contact our sales team for a quote.
