With the launch of the new JustBats.com we’ve been able to implement a ton of cool new features and being the photo guy around here, one of them just so happens to deal directly with me. If you’ve been on JustBats.com before you’ve probably seen the pictures beside the large image of the bat. We highlight the barrel, the handle, and the certification of the bat so that people can get a better idea of what it looks like. Not only do we show these images, but now you can submit your own image of you or your kid swinging that specific bat and it’ll show up right under our images! Now you have a place to show off that cool new bat, whether you got it from us or not, send it in! We’ve already had quite a few people send us their photos so keep them rolling in. We love seeing new ones everyday. Plus, if you send them now you will be at the top of the list so everyone will see you or your star player right when they open the page.

A few things to remember if you want your action shot on JustBats.com:

Be sure to send us the largest image you can. We will size it to our standards.
Be sure to attach your image in your email. (We’ve received a few that forgot)
Be sure to click the link on the correct bat’s page. There is a link with every bat.

We’re looking forward to filling up every page of JustBats.com with customer shots so don’t hesitate to send them in. Thanks guys!

Every year around the Holiday Season, JustBats.com gets some employees together and we go SHOPPING! Not for ourselves, but for Toys for Tots charity. It's a great yearly tradition that's put on by a couple of our long time employees Dave and Clint. It's personally my third year of being a part of this and I make sure I never miss it. It's a ton of fun and goes to a great cause. If you would like more info on doing this in your own community, check out their website: http://www.toysfortots.org/

Our Miken Contest is officially over and we want to thank everyone that entered. We had an amazing response and can't wait to do more contests in the near future. Keep checking out our Facebook and Twitter for a chance to win other cool prizes. Below are our winners for the contest, hope you all enjoy your Miken Hat and Wristband!

Over the last couple weeks Mattingly Sports was giving away 20 bats to celebrate reaching 20,000 fans on Facebook. Out of all the winners we had 2 entries that came from the JustBats Facebook! Congrats to Jim Frey and Julie Pendegraft for winning. Hope you both enjoy your bats and send us a photo if you can.

If you’re looking to buy a baseball or softball glove this holiday season, you should check out JustBallGloves.com, and here’s why:

With the holidays right around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about what you’re getting your friends and family this year. If there’s a ball player on your list, there’s no better gift than a JustBats.com Gift Card! Many players are picky about the bats they use. That’s OK! Gift cards take the guess work out of picking the right size and style of bat! Maybe your ball player has a bat on his/her list that’s a tad out of your price range. No problem! Gift cards can be purchased for any amount, so you can choose how much you want to contribute toward that dream bat of theirs!
