MY name is David Valentini and I am the owner of the Northern Mash Baseball Company better known as Mash Bats. I'm wondering who you might be. Just incase you have forgotten on how we make all of our bats, I will give you a reminder. All of our bats are hand made and take time to produce. If you want a bat in a week you can't get it from us. When you order a bat from us it starts off as a block of wood. We take your piece of wood and turn it to the bat that you have requested. This ensures the freshest and highest quality bat that you can get on the market. We don't turn a bunch of bats and wait and hope they sell like other companies do. When you by a bat from another company I wonder how long that bats was sitting around waiting to be sold. I am the customer service and I have never ever told anyone tough. I pride myself and my company on the bats we produce and if someone has a problem with our bats we take care of it professionally and fairly. I can't promise that you won't break our bats, a wooden bat will last as long as the player swinging it will let it. To put it bluntly if your bats lasted as short they did you must be a terrible hitter. All of our wood is inspected, each piece we pick up to turn we inspect it. We inspect our bats after every stage of production so that we don't waste our time on a sub par bat and that you don't get a bat below the quiality you are expecting.
come and check us out, I'm a baseball player who started to make baseball bats a few years ago, you'll see our bats in the hands of Major Leaguers. I'm not a carpenter who makes bats among other things.
