Don't oil it too much or it will be of little use to you. Out of interest, which bat is it? |

Minor counties suck and then you play for one

I put a lot of stuff in my gargage. This bat was a gift from my dad. But i didn't use it, so i just left it in the gargage.

You shouldn't over oil a bat. About a teaspoon per coat will be fine. I always put 3 coats on my bats and then leave overnight between each coat. Then start knocking it in.
