I can't talk for BMH or LVS, but I have gotten to know Clint a little over the years.
In fact, when I was working for Rawlings, I hand tunred a maple bat for him that he has used in BP, but can't use in games because I am not MLB Certified.
At Spring Training this year, he was swinging a Blonde LVS - but not his model. It was one that Kip Wells had left behind when the Rox jetisoned him.
I asked Clint about it because he had been with Diablo for years. Diablo said they could not pay the costs associated with the new requirements by MLB for Maple, so they gave up their MLB production. Clint was looking for a new bat to use and liked Wells because Barmes swings a 33" bat as light as possible to increase his bat speed.
He may still be swinging some other players bats as well this year, I haven't really watched too close what he is swinging at the plate.
Hope this helps some.

Re: BMH or anybody help on Barmes
I know he has recently been swinging a Mizuno. I have one of his Diablo 33 bats. I was just trying to place the year he had a contract with LVS and how many were made. Clint is a good player that is hitting his stride.
Thanks for the info Chris..Comment

How about a Carolina Clubs? Has he ever used those?Collecting Cardinals jerseys and bats, with a focus on Yadier Molina, Matt Holliday, and Adam Wainwright.
