less wood mass would mean higher bat speed. But less momentum. I would take bat speed over wood mass

For me its speed, i tend to check my shots anyway along the ground and consider myself to be a nudger and nurdler so its speed.

You mention both mass and volume, which are you talking about as both are different?

a quicker bat less weight has a more force potential than a heavier bat thrown slower

it a know fact that a lighter bat thrown quicker has a greater force potential than a heavier bat thrown at the same pressure but slower due to weight.
