That depends on the length of the bat. The '-11' and '-12.5' are known as 'drop weights' and represent the value of the length of the bat, in inches, subtracted from the weight of the bat in ounces.

If the lengths of the bats are the same, the difference is the '-12.5' bat weighs one and a half ounces less than the '-11' bat. For example, if both bats are 30 inches in length, the '-11' bat weighs 19 ounces (19 - 30 = -11) and the '-12.5' bat weighs 17.5 ounces (17.5 - 30 = -12.5).

By knowing the length of the bat and the drop weight, you can determine the weight of the bat. Simply add the length of the bat to the drop weight. Another example, let's say the '-11' bat is 29 inches in length and the '-12.5' bat is 32 inches in length. To determine the weight of the '-11' bat, add the length to the drop weight (-11 + 29) to find out that the bat weighs 18 ounces. The '-12.5' bat weighs 19.5 ounces (-12.5 + 32).

What does the number 125 mean on a Louisville Slugger?

The "125" refers to the grade of wood used to make the bat. "125" is the highest grade and is reserved for all pro level bats. The "125" bats are also used for the highest quality store model bats.The 125 is not the Model number.

What is the difference between a -10 and a -8 fast pitch bat?

The difference between these bats is the difference between the ratio of their weights and lengths. An example of a drop 10 bat you be on that is 33 inches in length and 23 ounces. A drop 8 bat would be 33 inches long, but weigh 25 ounces. Drop describes the ration between weight and length.
