Old Hickory bat code info

[tigerdale]

Maybe this is general knowledge, not sure, but I thought i'd post it anyways. This is a reply I got from 'old hickory' customer service regarding the meaning of the serial numbers put on starting in 2009...

On the Porcello bat, and all pro bats starting in 2009, the serial number breaks down like this:

The first number is the year (starting in 2010, this will change to the first 2 digits), the next two digits are the month the order was received and the last 3 digits are the work order number. After the hyphen, the letters are the players initials and the number is the exact number of that bat for the particular order. In the case of the Porcello bat (905161-RP3), the order was received by use in May of 2009, the work order was 161 and this bat was number 3 in the order.
