ABSTRACT:
A training bat having an adjustable handle capable of insertion within or extension from the barrel of the bat. When inserted within the bat, a player is able to master the technique of bunting by holding it with one hand as he would a glove. When the handle is fully extended, the batter may practice bunting in the conventional manner with two hands. A twist lock is provided for maintaining the handle in the extended position, and a beveled portion of the handle frictionally engages the barrel portion for maintaining the handle in the inserted position. A protective shield is provided for protecting the batter's hand while practicing bunting techniques. A novel technique for mastering the art of bunting is also disclosed.
