Abstract: A bat handle weight includes a body having a transverse hole with a bat end opening sized to allow a bat handle end to be inserted into the transverse hole. The transverse hole tapers inward at an opposite end from the bat end opening to be narrower than the bat handle end, but wider than the bat handle. The bat handle weight is placed on the bat by placing the bat handle end into the bat end opening, and then rotating the body of the bat handle weight relative to the bat, where the inward tapered portion of the transverse hole bears against the top of the bat handle end, and the user's hand will bear against the outside of the bat handle weight when grasping the bat by the handle, thereby securing the bat handle weight on the bat so that the bat can be swung without the bat handle weight coming off the bat.
