I am 5'8" and weigh 140. I have been swinging a black louisville slugger 34-32 wood bat. When playing around it felt fine swinging but when getting pitched too i was hitting the ball hard mostly on the ground but i was popping up alot mostly infield or short outfield. I am thinking about switching to a 32-30, Do you think 32 inches is to small for me. I think the lighter weight will help my batspeed alot since i swung a 33-30 during the season.

The 33-30 I used was a metal bat, I like using wooden bats after the high school season.
