Abstract

Recently, baseball bats that have kinds of characters have been marketed due to advances in the materials and structure of modern baseball bats. One of remarkable point is a sweet spot in bats. But a sweet spot is sensuous and its point is laxness. So the reason why a sweet spot is approved is researched in this study. First of all, the first node, the second node and center of impact were measured. Next, the ball was made to collide with them and the repulsion coefficients were measured, and compared.
