Do these reduce the shock from the bat?

It was a lot better than just using bare hands. But as far as shock absorption, I would recommend Under Armour batting gloves. They're the best I've ever used.

The Mizuno Vintage Pro G4 definitely takes the "sting" off a batted ball especially when you don't catch it on the sweet spot.

Almost any isolation from the bat will reduce vibration/shock(felt in the hands), be it a glove or a grip

Depends on the bat used. I have the boys use a heavier wooden bat when training on this to strengthen hands, wrists, and overall swing. When used with a wooden bat noise is very minimal.

No. They provide a substantial reduction in the level of the noise, but you can still hear things muffled.

Yes, there is a break-in period for this bat. Hits better after about 200 swings

No I don't think they would help much in the vibration dept. unless you filled the bars with lead pellets first.

No. It reduces the noise enough so you went jump/flinch when someone's firing next to you

Not completely. I have not found anything that will do that as much as try to advertise! I wear them everynight because they do block most ambient sound i.e. fans, tv's down low.

Yes for a short period. I filled the post with concrete and rebar and that reduced it some. It's very little vibration kind of like the ones you see on TV after a shot.

They may help a bit with vibration (but just a bit) but are not likely to help with the noise. Good luck

No, they will not reduce the sound enough. The foam earplugs will protect your ears and muffle the sound much better than these.

You answered your own question! Should reduce felt recoil a bit but be aware that the cheap material they use as a buffer will mushroom and hang up on your spring after 3 boxes of ammo!!!!!

No. At least I have never heard it with the ones I have. But remember, these are being discontinued. I have been using them for years, primarily because they are NOT distracting and just do what they are supposed to do. I'll miss them when I wear out my last set.

Michael, I have no idea. I did a sports themed bedroom for my nine year old son this summer and used these bats for the bed railing and as a curtain rod. So I didn't purchase them for the purpose of using them in Little League. Sorry.

Not at all. These are great protective headphones. If you have that problem you should get a replacement. These are the best electronic headphones I've used and should afford excellent hearing protection. Try them turned off. If you hear loud shots then maybe they arent fitting you correctly or there is a defect causing a sound leak.

No. I've never used anti-shock poles to compare, but I never had any problems with these.

I've never herd or used a a bat with these. So I'm not sure you read the post right.

Nope, not anti shock. But, unless that's a perquisite, for the money these are very good poles. Hope this helps.
