"Hi, I'm a huge baseball fan and am glad I've discovered this site. I am looking for the best bat weight to use in order to hit balls the furthest in our homerun derby games. I've looked at some of Terry Bahill's stuff on bat speed and weight. I'm not in any leagues, so I don't need to worry about any -3 restriction or anything like that.

If the pitches are going to be lobs, and bat speed is not an issue, then I would buy the heavier bat.
