Re: Amount of Batspeed

This depends on the sizer of the bat...Lighter bat would need more batspeed.

A typical 30 oz aluminium bat would require about 70-80 mph batspeed at ideal contact (ball hit squarely on barrel, ball leaving at 30 degree trajectory) in oreder for the ball to travel 320-350 feet,
