Brian, could you please look at the bat knob below and interpret what all the letters mean? Thanks!

Re: BMH -- Bat knob translation
VM= veneer maple. A way for the player to identify the type of maple he is receiving from us.
LDM= Low Density Maple. Markings we are required to put on the bats by MLB to identify a Maple bat that takes a < 85.6oz billet.Brian Hillerich

Geoff...
My guess would be it stands for "ash"...but I'll let the professionals handle that one too.
Great questions in this thread.

Re: BMH -- Bat knob translation
I believe it has been discussed before that the "A" is for Amish Maple
