The Hitting Knob allows the player to perform the proper swing mechanics while maximizing bat speed and power. This swing trainer was established by developing a weighted device that easily attaches and detaches to the knob of the bat.
This hitting aid allows players to quickly increase bat speed and power, develop proper swing mechanics, and help create the perfect whip-like motion for their swing.
We’ve developed the most revolutionary hitting training aid through the use of physics. Placing the weight on the knob end of the baseball bat or softball bat allows the bat to get to the proper swing path early on. This hitting aid increases your angular velocity (and angular momentum) as the barrel whips through the swing zone.
Studies show that adding weight like a donut or a sleeve to the barrel of a bat not only decreases the hitter’s bat speed once the weight is removed but also creates casting in the player’s swing.
The solution is to add weight to the knob of the bat rather than the barrel, as this decreases the moment of inertia and increases bat speed.
By adding weight to the knob, it trains the batter to swing the knob of the bat, not the barrel, keeping the hitter’s hands inside the baseball or softball. This allows the barrel of the bat to get on the correct path early on and stay in the zone throughout the swing, creating a whip-like motion with the barrel.
The Hitting Knob benefits players of all ages and playing levels both in baseball and softball. This tool can help develop proper swing mechanics for any player, no matter the level they’re at. While using The Hitting Knob, your bat speed and power will increase in no time. The specially designed attachment specifically trains the batter to swing the knob of the bat and keep their hands inside the ball, creating a whip-like motion in your swing.

I ordered this for my 8-year old son who’s played some seasons in tee-ball and now little league. I keep trying to teach him how to swing the handle to whip the barrel around and found this device while doing some research online. I had him take some dry swings with it on and his reaction when we took it off was jaw-dropping and you could see it clicked with him. We got him the 8oz one now (he’s only 7) and as he gets older/stronger, I’ll definitely order the heavier ones. We’ve done some tee work and some light work with live hits with it on, but overall just diggin’ the overall concept of this training aid! It’s great as it’s exactly what I’ve been trying to teach him fundamentally and instill in his mind when he’s swinging and at-bat, and wanted something that would lay the foundation down for a solid base/swing as he gets older and continues to play the game. I strongly recommend this and have already talked/shown this to some of the parents on his team!
The knob works great. It puts the extra weight next to your hands, rather than on the barrel of the bat, like a typical donut. I feel like this is more effective in improving bat speed while making it easier to maintain proper mechanics. Because it's not on the barrel, you could also use it while hitting, if you wanted to. A little overpriced, but it was still a great purchase.
Very smart product! My son immediately took to it and I can see the “coolness “ of it being able to click on and off for practice. He likes it way better than a sleeve, but it’s not really comparable. Can’t wait to see the results over time!
As a high school coach I love this product. Players today are often reliant on constant feedback from a coach and left struggling to make adjustments as they get older. This product is a coaches best friend. It provides feedback in a way more valuable to a player than any coach can provide. It allows them to feel the correct path to the ball and commit it to memory. I saw in 6 weeks a team improve their attack angle to the ball by taking 30 swings a day with the hitting knob.
Since using this product I've created the one thing I was missing, Lift. I was constantly slamming hard ground balls. Started the season games 1-6 zero extra base hits. Week 5.5 is when I started to use the product. I was in a bad slump 5 and 6. From weeks 7- 12 I hit 6 doubles and 1 dinger. Softball always a Contact hitter now this season I've put 5 over in 4 games. Be careful there are different sizes to this product. Wood bats have typically deeper tapers and they have the knob for the different styles. Best to contact them directly.

COR & Compression in softballs refers to the ball's hardness and bounce. Compression is rated by how many pounds of force (like 300, 400, 475) compress it a quarter-inch. The higher numbers mean harder balls for more distance, while lower numbers are softer for limited flight, safer play or training. These compression ratings work with the Coefficient of Restitution (COR) (e.g., 52, 47, 44) to determine bounce, with lower COR/higher Compression balls being harder and bouncier for competitive play.
NOTE: Softballs have a 25± compression variance. So, they could be up to 25 points above or below the certified compression.
We are an authorized dealer for every brand that we carry so if the item is eligible for a manufacturers warranty you have one by purchasing with us! With that said, All Warranties go directly through the Manufacturer not through Diamond Sport Gear.
There are a few things you need to have. You can always register your bat on the manufacturers website so you don't have to keep all of your info. Every new bat comes with warranty information under or on the wrapper, we recommend you keep it in case you need to use it. All Warranties go directly through the Bat Manufacturer not through Diamond Sport Gear. Once a wrapper is off of a bat we cannot take it back.
You will have to go to the manufacturers website (DeMarini.com, Slugger.com, Rawlings.com, etc.) to start the process. Their warranty policy and claims forms are often located in the footer or their website. We can always provide you with another copy of your receipt if needed. It can take some time to receive a replacement as they have to check them to make sure the item wasn't used in a way to void the warranty.
If you buy a bat from another parent, coach, etc the warranty does not transfer! The receipt has to be in your name. If it is someone on your team or that you know you might have to ask them to send it back on your behalf.
We hope that this helps and if you have any questions please contact us. We'd love to help as much as we can!
