THE LOUISVILLE SLUGGER MUSEUM & FACTORY

THIS PLACE IS VERY NICE, AND ONE CAN LEARN HOW THE INFAMOUS LOUISVILLE SLUGGER BASEBALL BATS ARE MADE. WE DID NOT INVESTIGATE THIS LOCATION, BUT FEEL IT'S DEFINITELY WORTH STOPPING IN FOR THE FACTORY TOUR & MUSEUM.

THE ENTRANCE.

          

WE NEVER EXPECTED TO FIND A HEADSTONE HERE.

A DISPLAY SHOWING HOW THE BATS ARE MADE. THE COMPANY HAS THEIR OWN FORESTS, WHERE THE ASH TREES ARE CUT. THE WOOD IS THEN SPLIT, TURNED ON A LATHE, SANDED, ETC. UNTIL THE SPECS ARE PERFECT. (THERE ARE MANY OTHER STEPS- BUT THEY ARE COPYRIGHTED)
