The SB7 is our newest wood softball bat. It's a great choice for the player who likes to add a little bit of a flare to the handle of their bat, but doesn't want as big a flare as our SB73.
Coming in at a -5 length to weight ratio, it falls in the class of our lightest softball bats. For the transition from a metal bat softball play to wood bat softball play, this is a great place to start.
Similar to the SB3, the discernible difference is in the transition from the handle in to the knob. The SB3 has a very traditional, straight transition. The SB73 is at the other end of the the spectrum -- a large flare in to the knob for those who would have gone tape happy on their metal softball bat. The SB7 fits right in between.
