Bunt master

Abstract

The main features of this invention are the patented finger grips and the catching net. The finger grips are designed to provide consistent hand/finger placement on the bat while bunting. The net enables the individual who is bunting to receive instant feedback as to the success or failure of the bunt. If the bunt is successful, the batter will have caught the ball in the net. The bat's weight and length are the same as used in the game of baseball. As the batter continues to improve with this invention, their muscle memory will develop making them a better bunter. Since the bat uses plastic balls, the net also allows the bat to be used indoors without increased risk of household damage. The net can also hold several small plastic balls simultaneously which will save time and increase the number of practice bunts a player can take in a desired time.

1 ) An aluminum bat used for catching plastic balls. Its purpose is to help develop better hand-eye coordination and muscle memory for individuals who are trying to bunt the ball. 
   
   
       2 ) The bat as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said head of the device has an opening which is secured with a net on one side. Thus leaving the other side open thus allowing the net to be used to catch and hold the plastic balls which are “pitched” to the user of said bat. 
   
   
       3 ) The bat as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said body of the device has finger grips positioned just below the opening which contains the net. The said finger grips are positioned in both the top and bottom of said bat at the top and bottom of the bats opening.
