BMH - Knob Stamping Questions

[eGameUsed]

Brian,

I have a 2012 LVS M9 stamped 03/26/12 on the knob. In the middle of the knob below the date is stamped "VM." Below the weight/length is stamped "LDM." What does VM and LDM stand for?

Thanks in advance!

From a previous response by Brian:

VM= veneer maple. A way for the player to identify the type of maple he is receiving from us.

A= Amish Maple (VM is also Amish, just graded higher)

AA= Amish Ash.

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.
