Bownet^® Fungo Bats for Fielding Work

Make the most of every drill during fielding practice with the Bownet Coaches Fungo Bat. To give your players the most reps, you need to be able to hit grounders, fly balls and liners consistently. Good defense is huge for run prevention, and a fungo bat trainer helps baseball and softball players prepare to face any situation they might encounter come game time.

What Is a Fungo Bat?

The only way to work on fielding batted balls is to face them. However, fielders are only going to get so many opportunities as part of regular batting practice. A fungo bat is specifically designed for making contact on balls that are tossed in the air instead of pitched balls. This means you can give players a good ball to field every time so they're not standing around. It also saves pitchers’ arms so they can do their regular drills without feeling worn out. Bownet makes high-quality fungo training bats for players who truly want to have an all-around game.

Fungo Bat Training

No season is truly underway without at least one fungo bat in your equipment bag. Make it one from the industry leader in baseball and softball training gear. Our 35-inch fungo bats are made of poplar wood that is flexible yet durable. At 16 ounces in weight with a 2.25-inch-wide barrel, these bats allow coaches to hit balls repeatedly with accuracy — and without emptying your tank halfway through practice. Slap hot shots to the corners, bounce a double-play grounder up the middle or send outfielders to track a fly ball to the warning track. Defense matters, too, and your players can develop an elite fielding game in a short amount of time when they're constantly peppered by the right hits.

Help your players #TrainLikeAPro by using the best fungo bat every time they take the field. Not only are these sleek fungo bats the highest quality lumber available, but they also come in nearly 20 colors to add some fun to practice. Instead of using a boring plain wood bat, hear the satisfying crack of a blue, red, dark green or orange fungo bat that everyone will recognize as yours. We sell bats patterned after state and country flags along with digi-hex bats. Order the star-spangled USA fungo bat to celebrate the red, white and blue as you train players to try to make the national team.
