Coaches who hit hundreds of fungos per week notice the difference - less grip pressure means less fatigue, which means better ball placement at the end of practice, not just the beginning.Complete Your Coaching ToolkitPair the Fungo Bat with the Altusport Ball Caddy for waist-height ball access between swings, the Backstop Net behind the batter, the L Screen for pitcher protection, and the Little Daniel Pitching Machine for automated batting practice. Each piece works on its own and better together.What's in the BoxOne 36-inch wood fungo bat.

• 36-INCH WOOD FUNGO BAT FOR HITTING GROUND BALLS AND FLY BALLS: The standard fungo length gives coaches the reach and control to place ground balls to infielders and launch fly balls to outfielders with consistent accuracy. Wood construction provides the feel and feedback coaches prefer over aluminum for fielding practice
• LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN REDUCES ARM FATIGUE DURING LONG PRACTICE SESSIONS: Fungo bats are built lighter than game bats so coaches can swing repeatedly through a full team practice without wearing out. Hit 50, 100, or more fielding reps in a session and still have energy to run the rest of practice
• THIN BARREL DELIVERS CONTROLLED HITS FOR PRECISE BALL PLACEMENT: The narrow barrel gives coaches more control over where the ball goes - place grounders between shortstop and third, drop pop-ups in shallow center, or line drives to the gaps. Controlled contact means more productive fielding reps and less time chasing overthrown balls
• DURABLE WOOD CONSTRUCTION FOR DAILY PRACTICE USE: Built to handle the repeated contact of daily fielding drills. The wood holds up through ground ball sessions, fly ball practice, and pregame warm-ups season after season. Not designed for full-power batting practice - this is a coaching tool, not a game bat
• WORKS FOR INFIELD GROUNDERS, OUTFIELD FLY BALLS, POP-UPS, AND LINE DRIVES: One bat covers every type of fielding drill a coach needs to run. Hit sharp grounders for infield practice, high fly balls for outfield tracking, soft pop-ups for communication drills, and line drives for reaction time. Baseball and softball compatible
• DESIGNED FOR COACHES - NOT A PLAYER BATTING BAT: The 36-inch length and thin barrel are built for hitting fungos from home plate or the coaching box, not for use in batting cages or live at-bats. Coaches at every level use fungo bats because they deliver more accurate, controlled hits with less effort than swinging a standard bat
• USED AT TEAM PRACTICE, PREGAME WARM-UPS, AND TRAINING CAMPS: Hit ground balls before the game starts, run fielding stations during practice, or lead defensive drills at camp. The bat goes wherever your coaching takes you - youth rec fields, high school diamonds, travel tournaments, and indoor facilities
• SUITABLE FOR YOUTH, HIGH SCHOOL, TRAVEL BALL, AND ADULT LEAGUE COACHING: Whether you coach 8-year-olds learning to field their first grounder or a high school varsity squad working on double plays, the same fungo bat works. Sized and weighted for adult coaches hitting to players at any level
• ERGONOMIC HANDLE FOR COMFORTABLE REPEATED SWINGS: The handle taper allows a relaxed grip that reduces hand strain over long practice sessions. Coaches who hit hundreds of fungos per week notice the difference - less grip pressure needed means less fatigue in the hands, wrists, and forearms
• COMPLETE YOUR COACHING SETUP WITH ALTUSPORT TRAINING EQUIPMENT: Pair the Fungo Bat with the Altusport Ball Caddy to keep balls at waist height between swings, the Backstop Net to contain hit balls, and the L Screen for pitcher protection during live BP. Build a full practice station one piece at a time
