Classic 271 turn in hand-selected rock hard maple.
Mizuno Maple Elite MZM271 Maple Wood Baseball Bat Black 340423
Description
The Mizuno Maple Elite MZM271 is cut from rock hard, hand-selected maple and turned to the time-tested 271 profile — a medium barrel with a smooth taper to a traditional handle that gives you barrel control without giving up pop. Mizuno's bigger-barrel Elite design adds sweet spot, the cupped end keeps the swing weight balanced, and the matte black furniture-grade finish looks as good after a season of BP as it did out of the wrapper.

Cupped End
Lighter swing weight and a well-balanced feel through the zone.
No Warranty
Wood bats carry no manufacturer warranty.
Key Features
- Hand-Selected Rock Hard Maple – top-quality billets chosen for consistent performance and durability
- Rich Furniture-Grade Finish – premium look that holds up
- -3 Length-to-Weight – adult / BBCOR-style wood spec, 2 1/2" barrel
Who This Bat Is Built For
Hitters who want a true balanced wood bat for wood-bat leagues, fall ball, or cage work — and who like the proven 271 profile most pro hitters grew up on.
Best for:
- Wood-bat league players, and hitters who train with wood for feel and barrel control
- Players sized for a -3 drop — lighter drops favor bat speed, heavier drops favor power
Consider a different bat if:
- Your league requires a certified metal bat for games — see BBCOR bats, USSSA bats or USA bats
- You want a bat that will not break in the cage — bamboo and composite-wood models are on the wood bats page

FAQ
Does a wood bat have a warranty?
No — wood bats carry no breakage warranty from any manufacturer, including this one. Hitting with the label up or down (grain facing the pitcher) and avoiding cage balls in cold weather is the best protection.
Maple, ash or birch?
Maple is the hardest and densest — the most pop and the most popular, but it can shatter on a bad mishit. Ash is lighter with more flex and the traditional feel; it flakes rather than snaps. Birch sits between the two: nearly as hard as maple with some of ash's flex, and it gets harder as you hit with it.
Is it covered by a warranty?
Yes — a full no warranty Mizuno manufacturer warranty against breakage and defects, honored through us as an authorized dealer.
